Gary, brilliant. Works like a champ! For posterity, just had to add `! to the filter that actually does the group adding,and a tmpgroups field to store the user's other groups, because I can't seem to append to a field during a push operation.
Now I just need to setup an escalation to "flush" this group (crawl User table and do a set fields/string replace on the group I want to flush?), and then trigger this filter guide to push everyone back into the group (crawl my other table (escalation) and modify a field to trigger filter action (modify) to launch the filter guide?. The idea being to keep a group list populated with exactly and only the users from the filter guide Gary outlined. If there is a better way than above, please feel free to let me know.... I'll save this for tomorrow. Thanks again Gary and everyone else that responded!
