Sounds like what you are thinking about is called a blind swap with the pot. If you go to PCS and swap with the pot you can request specific trips on specific dates and if the trip becomes available you will more than likely get it.
There are different PCS templates for swap with the pot and white slip. You can be very specific (down to the trip number and date) or very general (any trip at any time) on a white slip or swap with the pot.
