The facebook question that just passed was pretty much labelled as to be happening at 12:00 AM EST. This gave myself and I'm sure many, many others a fighting chance. I did not know this answer off the top of my head, but I feel most of us who did not know this question knew 90% of the other questions. I did try sitting around 6-8 hours on Sunday. It did not work, and all it does it take a frustrating topic (beta access) and add the stress of sitting in a chair with bloodshot eyes hoping for the smallest chance at winning, dwindling away one's weekend.
I know some people will argue that those who are willing to sit around 6, 8, or even 12 hours staring at facebook deserve a beta key over those who don't have the time. Granted that is a sound argument, as they truly, truly want it. But at the same time is the aim really to dangle a carrot in front of the donkey's face and say;"sit still and stare at this screen pressing f5 for 8 hours, your life is null and void?"
That is just my 2 cents. Taking an already sedentary hobby and adding even less motion to our lives as well as much unneeded anger and frustration.
I often found myself TRYING to sit on Facebook for hours trying to get the keys, but I eventually get bored, do something else, come back, press F5 and miss the key by 20 min.
This time aorund, I was there on time... but did not know the answer so I googled for 2 seconds, answered and I was the 100th person to answer.
