If you fly as published but get in early you get the whole kit and kaboodle.
The pay is TRP.

if you flew the legs as scheduled it pays the rotation guarantee, even though underflown. for example, last month i flew a Gs originally worth 22:38. We over blocked a few legs and were up to 23:21 mid rotation...but they ended up chopping the penalty lap off at the end of the rotation on a reroute and we finished early...the trip dropped back down to 21:03. So i got 22:38 orig guarantee + 21:03 as flown.

About 8 months to get up to speed

Today I get an ARCOS callout for a next day GS with a batch size of 1. I respond that I want the trip, then log into iCrew and see the trip was already covered one minute before the ARCOS call. WTF? Are they queuing phantom ARCOS calls to get around the batch size? i.e. They load up 5 ARCOS calls with a batch size of 1 to notify 5 pilots.

When you saw it covered in icrew was there an * next to the pilots employee number showing they had actually acknowledged the trip?
