I used the Pbs bidding program that you install on your PC. I had to go find an old Windows laptop that I hadn't used in years.

This is not necessary. The system will read priority left to right on each line, so just make sure you list your preferred days off in priority order. I believe that there is a limit to the max number of bid line requests that the system allows, so if your bid is very complex, you will want to condense your days off requested to a single line.
You have to put each day off on a separate line.
On a normal pairings bid it will do denial mode and disregard days off from right to left on your line

Not true if I understood the manual correctly. A reserve bid does NOT go into denial mode if all your days off requests you made cannot be honored. So when it goes back to try to build a reserve line for you it disregards the whole line at once.

I just bumped into a guy on the hiring team and he said "only the candidates that show up at a conference such as Obap or wia will be considered this round" they supposedly want to meet people face to face first. Is that what you guys are hearing too?

But you can bid using safari on your iPad, why bother?
Is there any real advantage using the PC program? I've never used it.
