Yup Ive unsubscribed from like 10 different newsletters I never signed up for to begin with along with about 6 different advertisements , 2 facebook emails, 4-6 loan offers, a couple random no text emails, and a couple random people emails wanting to hook up...

I think this is the cleanest my email has ever looked.

I'm excited. But I'm not revolving my days around it. I've got my phone set to email alert. if I get the buzz I'll be home in a flash. Besides that, still gotta enjoy this nice weather and try not to get pulled over by cops well riding my motorcycle..haha

If you haven't got an invite tonight, you're not going to get an invite tonight. Better luck tomorrow. (Or whenever next invite batch is)

Again they said they were sending out "thousands" as in thousand(s) with an "s" at the end.

Then they posted about those that hadn't received invites yet and stated "We'll be adding 1000 of the next 7 days" so either they used poor grammar (Im not a grammar policeman, just saying) and forgot the "a" before 1000 to indicate a unit of 1000 people or they forgot an "s" at the end to indicate 1000's as in a plural (multiple units of 1000) of invites...

Something tells me they meant 1000 over 7 days which means about 142 invites per day, which is less than 1% of the total registered users. :D

This is almost enough to make a grown man cry. ;)

I was thinking the same thing, but they would have at least came back and updated their profiles and filled out the questionnaire.

I think there were a lot of people multi-accounting to increase their chances honestly.
