I'm not asking anyone to catch up. We've had 3 freerolls in the last month. The first one was overrun by a bunch of people who weren't invited. The second was last night and had 160 people, of which, I'd say 10% were actual "contributing members."

This freeroll, was awarded to the forum because of a good showing we made in the forum challenge tourney. My final table finish got us the most points and the site administrator (talkingpoker) decided to let me do whatever I wanted with the freeroll.

So, I thought it would be fun to play in a nice tourney with people that I've "gotten to know" here over the last year. Believe me, some fresh faces are going to be playing in the tourney. However, they've all been around for a month or so. I should've posted it, (not that it would've prevented anything) but there is no way anyone who signed up for an account after the first post in this thread is getting in.

That's how I want it to go down.

BTW, there are not 40 people with "thousands of posts." I know it's way less than 20 and not even all of them are invited. Only people who posted in this thread and who have contributed.
