see... i disagree? everybody has always had the same opportunity to set an alarm and log in for the 5 minutes it takes for a first come first serve launch to get resolved. connection errors and login ques suck but they're not UNFAIR. the cruel whims of fate don't know who i am when they disconnect me.


so yah... i don't think a lottery is more fair. at least not significantly so. maybe you could make a case for people who work odd hours or something. but REALLY it's just easier. so easy as to be incidental. and i think that a lot of people are gonna be disappointed when they realize how much worse their odds will become when the competition expands from "only the people who care enough to SLIGHTLY inconvenience themselves" to "everybody"?
