I think this is the main reason not to release them before the servers go down. The people who got a market advantage were those who realized the preliminary notes were up. By the time I realized they were, the market was already in chaos.

Obviously there's no way to make it fair for everyone, but saving the information until the servers are down is probably the best they can do.
