If you attend all the events that your invited to, including pref, your guranteed a spot in a house. It would make no sense to place you in a house that you did not pref. So if you attended pref at the house, and did not decide to SIP, you likely would agree to be a NM in that house. If they invited you to pref, your very likely on one of their bid lists. Unless there's something I'm totally missing, I see no downside to this policy!

They purpose of this is so every girl gets a house if they accept all invites extended to them...it's to reduce "suiciding" and to maintain the quota number set by NPC.
Basically it would go like this...
Suzy Rushee is invited to AXO and Pi Phi as her last two Pref. night parties. She attends both parties, but upon returning to rank her bid card, She puts AXO as her first choice and decides NOT to put down Pi Phi because she doesn't want their house.
AXO decided NOT to put Suzy Rushee on their first preference for bid list. Because Suzy did not put down Pi Phi on her bid card, she now is not extended a house at all!
On the other hand....
Suzy Rushee goes to both parties and signs her card as 1. AXO, 2. Pi Phi...regardless if both houses put her on their 2nd-choice list, because she attended both parties she will be guaranteed one of these two houses....(provided she also attended every invitation allowed to her up to this point)...
Hope this clarifies things a bit...
