There was a poster a few pages back who is on his third application and was adamant that this sequence had no bearing on who did or didn't get funded in previous years.

This year is quite different for me compared to 2017. My main aim in terms of getting this fellowship was to find a tenure-track position afterwards. This year, however, I have a campus interview next week for a tenure track job (good university good pay). If I get both MSCA and the job, I will drop...

It means funding thresholds (the lowest score a funded project) for those panels will be higher this year.
