YS'ing on XX days is generally equivalent to working for free. An exception would be if you were going to exceed guarantee for the month.
Also, under previous RSV rules, guys would sometimes try to "fill up" before the end of the month (think Xmas or thanksgiving) by YSing on XX days. This is very difficult to do now with ALV+15 and the bucket system.
Did I understand your post correctly? I thought you only had to hit ALV, not ALV + 15 to fill up.

Number of pilots senior to you with AE bids for ATL 717B
Yes, that is the page.
BTW, I fully plan to bid what I want. I was just extremely surprised to see such interest in the 717. I thought my main competition would be those who were 'non-vol'd' to NYC because of their SSN, most of whom I am senior to. I am sure there are a few domiciled in NYC who live in ATL and are betting on the come that some of the summer-off seat-lock guys will be leaving. I just figured they'd wait an AE or two to see how things settle out and not jump immediately back in. Worst (non black swan) case I eat NYC until my 1-year seat lock expires and then I'd probably be bidding straight to a line on another NB. *shrug* My NYC schedule is pretty good next month so it's not like the end of the world.
