Would choosing, instead of disc + manual + everything, disc + manual or disc only decrease the waiting time?
On games that were just released, probably not, unless someone is posting stuff as DO or D+M as a way to get matched up quicker in their heads. Older titles, you can get matched up quicker with, yes. But you are subject to getting only the disc or the disc and manual only.
It depends if you are offering or requesting. If you are offering, you will be matched fastest if you are offering full package. This is because EVERYONE can be matched with you. If you are requesting, Disc Only will be the fastest because, again, EVERYONE can be matched with you.
Does that make sense?

Well, I have requested Modern Warfare 2 full package and im In position 182 ( great! ) and I was wondering if clickin disc only or disc + manual would decrease waiting time, just alot of ppl want the full package but I only want the disc
Disk only MIGHT get you the game quicker. But if you don't mind getting just the disk you can try disk only, since it is the only thing you can do to speed things up...
Yes, requesting disc+manual or disc only probably will reduce your waiting time. You'll still be in the "same spot in line", but the other people requesting full package are not accepting anything less. If there is an offer for less than full package, you'll be matched. Also, you'll keep moving up if only full packages keep being offered. You won't lose your spot.
If you plan on trading the game out again in the future, you'll find it easiest to trade out a full package so that's why many people only want that version. If you don't care about that, however, requesting disc+manual or disc only should speed up the process.
Finally, you may not be as far back as you may think. The system also counts "restricted" requests as requests. I'm assuming this is for the ps3 version because of your position. I checked and there's only 52 "active" requests. You'll have to check where you actually are by clicking the "view stat" button in the area that shows the points...etc.
Hope this helped!
There is a total of 4 active requests
If there are only 4 active requests ahead of you, you should be matched soon whether you move to disc only or not. In this case, I'd say just wait and get a full package, but it's really up to you.
Yes, i was noticing that too. The "Restricted" and "On Hold" categories are not available for trade, only the "Active" column are currently tradable. Here is my listing for it. So even though almost 500 folks are technically ahead of me, if I were to activate this trade I should get the next available copy. On hold is obviously put on hold by the requester, but restricted can mean different things but usually means they don't have enough points or tokens to make the trade so until they do you would jump in front of them automatically for the trade. Hope this helps...
