Yes, I already saw my schedule on the PBS awards. But if I remember correctly they were posted on Flica for ease of viewing before the SAP along with the open time. The new timeline says they should have been published yesterday at 1200PHX.

The timeline requires that PBS results be published in PBS by the Noon on the 19th. Which it was. There's no stipulation that it also has to be in any of the other software packages.
SAP goes live today (20th) at noon and Flica will have schedules then.

Flica has always posted the day SAP opens. Sometimes a few minutes before, sometimes a few hours before.

Yes, I saw it posted yesterday everywhere except Flica. I must have gotten confused. I remember seeing my schedule on Flica waiting for the SAP to open, hence the schedule posted on Flica before the SAP under the old timeline. Just wanted to clarify and make sure that everything is going according to the new timeline. Thank you,
Also, SAP/FLICA is run by a different division within the company. That falls under Crew Line vs PBS is Crew Planning. Crew Line has to wait from Planning to load everything before they can do their part.

Well, without looking at your bid I can't comment specifically. But I can comment generically.
1. Go look at the numbers I put up in the Mesa Scheduling section. I think that will go a long way to explaining why coverage awards have been increasing.
2. Contractual min guarantee is not the same as minimum credit required for a line. So yes, 78 can be set as the minimum line value as long as it's posted on the info page when PBS opens. Which it was.

Am I looking at this correctly, every pairing for every FO was assigned for coverage in one of the bases? I thought unstacking was to be used from the bottom up by seniority, as necessary, not as a wholesale method of ignoring what pilots "prefer" and cramming every hour of flying on everbody's schedule and leaving little to nothing in opentime.

Went back and re-read. You don't mention a base specifically, you are right. Think I based it off the comment that followed.
DFW FO, IAD FO, and for the most part IAH CA all saw total unstacking.
DFW CA & PHX FO both saw targetted unstacking, but up to the #1 person.
