I do know what I'm doing. I have not changed my preferences months. The company changed something with the system.. To magically go from 17 days off/w weekends to 12 days with only 2 of the 5 weekends in March... yeah something is up...Wonder why the bids 'took' an extra day...yeah....
Every FO i flew with this month told me they got screwed on their bid. Most of them got 3 less days off. in Feb we only had 9 MSP CA on reserve, we are up to about 15 this month. Also there's about 600 block hrs less in open time for MSP CA. Reduction in flying maybe?
Like everyone says, you will get abuse on reserve. I did a high speed last night and was suppose to do one tonight but they pulled me of that to do a reduce rest turn. and some how it turned into a 3 day trip. My schedule has been changed about 5 times today.

and yes you will get abused on reserve. your schedule could change 100 times and it still be legal. we all had to go through it but once you have passed it you are done with it. i haven't had my schedule drastically changed in nearly 2 years now. once i was off reserve my qol shot through the roof. even when i only had 10 days off, just knowing that they couldn't just change my schedule when they wanted or keep me on a never ending trip made me happy.

i hope you aren't one of those guys on the company message board that has been here for 2 months and is crying because he didn't get what he wanted with prefbid.
have most of those fo's been here 6 months or less?? cause if they are you should have slapped them and reminded them how long people used to sit reserve when we did paper bids.
