While we're on this topic: For those interested in joining the campaign, would you rather have more frequent openings of single slots, or slightly less frequent openings but with multiple spots open?
You should just PM people you want in the campaign. Not that its a hassle to apply, but you'd probably save yourself a lot of time that way.
I've considered it, but I've decided not to for numerous reasons. The biggest one is that I don't know everyone, especially in Local sections/sections I don't frequent, and I don't want to primarily PM people who I actively talk with/see around.
