And now everyone in base still has the same place on the ladder since no one burned their spot. I'm sure at least someone in base would've taken it in hindsight if they knew it would go out of base and they never ended up getting G#2 or #3 anyway by the time the month ended.

Just a thought for future contracts but maybe the G#1 code for a 5.25 trip shouldn't be treated the same as G#1 for a 21 hr trip. Maybe add a conditional accept option that says I'll only keep it if it's gone unclaimed through the list, and then it would turn into G#0. Or maybe I should stop overthinking these one-day proffers and suck up occasionally shooting myself in the foot 🤪
A long thought. Yes, stop overthinking!

We could make it something like the number of days is added to your GS count. So if you get a one day GS, that would be your GS#1, but if you got a 5 day GS, then it would count as your GS#5.

Nope, it's fine the way it is. If you want to gamble the stakes are the stakes.
