Clarification Note: Are we narrowing down to the amount of keys available, or just a certain amount from which the moderators will choose based on OP? And for the matter I just addressed, I explained it already in the last page. | ||

But the hilarious implication of specifically stating there's no reverse psych going on is that you can't trust someone who would do such a thing anyway. Maybe there IS a reverse psych thing going on. After all, wouldn't dropping out make you more deserving than those who decided to stay in? Think about it: the original thread asked for those who were deserving. Almost everyone on the list gave the same story, or close to it. This second phase is to give people a chance to actually distinguish themselves from this already largely homogeneous group. Here's my theory: The pool of users who dropped out of the list are going to be put in a new list. Judging from post history etc the keys will be given out from that list. But then again...Hot_Bid said on page 3... lol Hot_Bid mindraping the internet. Kudos. | ||

That won't be a problem. | ||

"Enough people" was intentionally vague so that only people who are really altruistic can opt out, and also in the event that there is never really any intention to give out keys here, "Enough people can always refer to 2, or whatever the number of people still left -1 is. | ||

Giving out the number would ruin all the fun! I'm guessing they won't be giving that detail out. | ||
