^^^^aaack good grief no!!! That's basically like saying "I know you old bats probably made some huge mistakes with some of these idiots you took and they'll be jumping ship soon." Not only that, the laying in wait aspect is very unattractive. It's like the Seinfeld where Jerry and Elaine were waiting for the couple to break up so they could pursue them themselves.

Will people leave the colony? Of course. Might that open up an opportunity for you? Of course. But for the love of all that's holy, be discreet about it. Keep an ear to the ground and get to know the colonizing sisters- at this point, THEY are your route to a bid. If you tried to get in thru the national after they have all been chosen, it would be as honeychile says - you would be "that chick who appealed" and probably only grudgingly accepted as a member.
