Re: Ask for suggestions - 25000 visitors

[Hiep Nguyen <hiep@xxxxxxxxxx>]

be aware of those jerks out there may write code to enter ID & promo 
codes automatically and 25k visitors can be done only in 5 min (assume 
that they figure how you generate ID & promo codes).  you may 
need some mechanisms to ensure ID & promo codes entered by "human" in real 
time.  just a thought.
