I meant "unfortunately" as in I know that by accepting a bid to a different chapter and signing a MRABA, that I'm not legally allowed by Panhel to just switch into Kappa, whereas if I hadn't accepted a bid, then Kappa could have potentially just added me to the quota. No need for the harsh comments. But thank you to the others who offered advice!

Not exactly correct.
Actually, if you listed both chapters on your MRABA, and one chapter offered you a bid, you're bound for a year regardless of whether you accepted it or not. That's how this works. The language is clear.
If you had ISP'ed (only listed Kappa) even though you attended two parties, you wouldn't be eligible for a quota addition. However, you would have been eligible for COB after recruitment ended, IF Kappa or another chapter was below total and was participating in COB. Considering Kappa met their quota, this probably won't happen/wouldn't have happened.
If Kappa was your only invite, THEN you would have been a quota addition.
Just trying to help you see your options clearly. This is kind of complicated.
ETA: If I screwed this up, PLEASE someone tell me so I can fix this. I am trying so hard to be accurate.

If you had SIP'ed (only listed Kappa) even though you attended two parties, you wouldn't be eligible for a quota addition or a snap bid. However, you would have been eligible for COB after recruitment ended, IF Kappa or another chapter was below total and was participating in COB. Considering Kappa met their quota, this probably won't happen/wouldn't have happened.

Wait.. I thought we established in another recent thread that if a PNM SIPs, then she's still eligible for a snap bid, but not a quota addition..? Or maybe it was the other way around?

Women that ISP are eligible for snap bids. It's just a huge roll of the dice.

From the MOI, 18th edition (it's a sticky at the top of this page, ladies):
"If the preferential bidding system is used, women who indicate an intentional single preference and do not receive
an invitation to membership are eligible for snap bidding and COB, but they are not eligible to be a quota addition."

Ah, damn. I screwed up. So much for patting myself on the back.   
I should like to retreat to a corner and lick my wounds.
ETA Should I fix my post which contains misinformation?
