Nope, this is not the issue anymore.
PNMs only hear the part that says "If you go to Pref Night, you have a bid."
The parts that PNMs fail to pay attention to is that they MUST
"MAXIMIZE THEIR OPTIONS".
This means they must go to
ALL pref parties they are invited to
AND they must rank
ALL of those chapters on their card, in order to have the best chance at getting a bid.
If the PNM goes to 3 Prefs, but they decide not to list all 3 groups on their card, they may NOT get a bid. IF they only list 2of the 3, deciding that they would not accept a bid from the third chapter, then they risk receiving no bid at all. IF they SIP, they may not get a bid.
IF chapters find out something really, really bad about a PNM after Pref invites go out, but before Bid lists are done, they may also drop a PNM. It can happen.
