By that logic, so is Wonko's win for having posted a sentence declaring
victory when a proposal fails. Or my win for having a piece of paper on my
desk reading 'Whenever a proposal passes or fails, the rule "No Win For You"
is deleted if it exists, and then I win.' Of course, you can't even prove
that the paper exists, but that doesn't matter. You'll just have to take my
word for it.

Or not; it doesn't matter whether you trust me or not, seeing as the failed
proposal has no effect either.
