Can more than one appoint be made when only one slot is available?

Somewhere in this forum I think I read that if a candidate gets a competitive nomination and does not get an appointment from that nomination, they can still be put into another pool where they may get an appointment. How does that work? Doesnt every candidate have to be nominated, and doesnt each source have a limited number of slots?

Our MOC has one slot available for class of 2013 and submitted a list of candidates for that one slot. When the academy appoints one of the nominees, does that mean the other 9 nominees are no longer eligible for an appointment (assuming they have no other nomination sources)?
