The rule is that a bounty is only ever earned by somebody who did not exist in
InstantAdPay before the mission did. The check was written so that an absent or
unparseable refNewAfter meant "no floor, pay everyone", which is the same shape
as the rolling window that paid 8.67 POL for members who already existed.
Now a blank, mistyped, zero or missing floor pays nobody at all, and so does a
member with no InstantAdPay join date on file. The gate can only ever be opened
on purpose.
