This caused people who could only hold captain on the last effective date of that bid to get it this time around, when people senior to them, who held it earlier, had their cancelation rights expire, and therefore couldn’t hold it again on this bid. Kind of a crappy move. Something else to fix in CBA 2.0. Hopefully all those guys who held it before, but not this time, and who are senior to these 3XXX guys, get it again on this august bid.
