Re: [s-b] Proposal: Don't Penalize For Won Failures


So, wait... If I submit 3 proposals in the same nweek, and all three fail
and never were Won, does that mean I lose 3 points, or 9?

In other words, does this take effect for each proposal that was never Won,
or only for the third?

Am I clear, or horribly opaque?
