The initial invites were based off of staff suggestions. Community activity, extensive familiarity with different types of gifting and site rules, and ability to provide constructive feedback were all things we thought those individuals had. We also made sure to include puzzle makers, developers, and people with web development experience.
What the current users do with their 10 invites (once they get them) is totally up to them.

Can those people that have invites make a giveaway for the invites?, Or better why don't you guys make a giveaway for 100 invites and let people enter for 300 points :D

It's a beta, so we're looking for people who can help test. That would make it into a prize to be won and would let in a lot of users who probably wouldn't even understand what a beta is.

"Puzzle makers" Does this mean Steam Gifts V2 will have some sort of new puzzle giveaway type to take Itstoohard.com out of the picture?

Well, yes, you look exacly like a type of person that would take photos of himself naked and covered in mulberry jam.
P.S. I am actually interested in the following: what reaction have have you expected, exactly, when you were writing that silly line about your blacklist? I'm just genuinely curious about the way of thinking that may result in person considering that it will be a legitimate... i'm not sure what you meant it to be: a threat, a leverage, an argument?

I wanted to have the opportunity at winning fake giveaways too. :P There aren't as many on this side that I can throw my points into.
I hope testing goes well and we call all move to this new version of the site soon. :)

Yeah, but it'll get bundled and lose its value. I want something that will have a steady CV.

No..it wasn't random... they decided which ones will be the first that use it and test it... like betatesters.. then the betatesters will give them to 10 people they want. so that people can test too... and then 10 more(this is a suposse)...and then that 10 people to 10 more...etc..

Hey SG, we sent out a couple of dozen invites to the new site today. We're still trying to reach a handful of people, but have started getting feedback from those that have already signed up.
By late next week, we're planning to send each of those users 10 invites to share with friends, allowing us to expand the beta to a couple of hundred people.
In the meantime, don't worry, if you haven't yet received an invite, you're not missing out on any giveaways, the new site is simply filled with fake giveaways for testing.
We're looking forward to inviting more users soon!
