Not sure why we can’t run mock bid results during the window like United does.

I think they run 2-3 mock results so people can get an idea of their bid. Or at a minimum catch errors they’ve made.

It's way more fun to watch the chit show unfold when people who haven't bid in years and now only once a year at that find out the negative result of what they may or may not have done.

A lot of people I know were confused with the logic of the voluntary displacement bid.

Default Bid Clowns

I’ll bet a hamburger tomorrow that if any folks screwed up their bid, they are the same people who bid reserve for the first time in a decade (or ever) and then picked up straight trips on their days off
