Ask HN: Your worst RFP horror story?

Let's compare RFP scars. What's your worst story involving an RFP from a public agency or large enterprise?

Having to print out 10 hardcopies and drive overnight to hand-deliver them?

Being disqualified for a $1M+ project because of some minor, stupid reason (i.e. your formatting was off)?

Being forced to use a weird web portal from the 90's that requires IE6 to use?

I think those of us on HN suffer the daily humiliations of the RFP process more keenly than others.
