It would not do anything to the other awards you are working on. 
You can have as many "WAS Accounts" as you want - as far as 
I know.  The incoming confirmation data feeds all of the 
accounts for which it matches at the same time .. so after 
January 1, 2009 any new confirmations will feed my "all time" 
account and my "Triple Play" account.
