It's not a win in this game, it's just style here. But the point is, if 
I join another game and get them to agree to set up a loophole that, in 
their game, grants me an infinite number of Wins (note that Win need 
not be defined the same way in a different game - it could refer to an 
essentially meaningless object, but they could also go in entirely the 
opposite direction from us and use it for currency or something). If I 
then exploit this loophole, I gain 15 Style in this game for doing it, 
plus 10 for each of the infinite number of Wins I got in that game. 
Instant infinity.

Of course, I'm already so stylish I can improve property values 
throughout a neighborhood just by visiting, but that's beside the point 
:)
