For anyone new or uninitiated, this cannot be overemphasized. GS are always a proffer, so you can have 1 slip in for the whole month that will catch every opportunity in the net. But for a WS to remain a proffer (can turn it down), you have to have a separate slip in for a 1-day, than a 2-day, than a 3-day, then a... And you have to change your slips every day (to roll to the next day) if you want to be open to the proffer trips via ARCOS. If you are new and don't understand any of that, ask someone to help explain it. Otherwise, if you put in just a blanket WS covering the whole month, you are going to get slammed with at least one, if not several trips you don't want, and can't turn down. Don't learn that lesson the hard way...
