Ok. Those are the two main questions.

If its the pilot to pilot swap board and a guy has it as a drop or swap, if you try to pick it up, it will go thru if its legal.

Shiz answered the DBMS swapboard part...I don't mess with it really. If you've got something that sux, dump it and put in a wildcard pickup for the number of day trip you want when you want it...60-70% chance of success (which means 30-40% chance of failure).
