Default Bid Plan

OK...I know this is off the current thread path, but the July bid closes soon and I'm looking for some help. I'm middle seniority in my seat. I have a week vacation in June and live in base. Can anyone help me with a bid plan that maximizes time off and pay with vacation?
If I bid a line, what would a max, norm or min credit bid do for/to me?
Would it be better to bid reserve and hope for some rolling thunder? If so, what would be the best way to bid days off to facilitate the thunder?
I just don't have a good feel for how vacation affects the bid.
Thanks...ExAF
