what are the chances

I just guessed 70,000 because that made it sound more 1337 if you got into beta, I actually think everyone, who met the specs that signed up for beta will get in.

Well, almost 30,000 signed up for beta last time. I think 14,000 were viable applications.

Now the community is easily 10 or more times its size before. I wouldn't be too surprised if over 200,000 applications are submitted and 80,000 are viable.

I mean, with the coverage it's getting in magazine ads telling people to go to the site and signup for the beta, it may get even higher.
