If it wasn't $20 to join, I might have tried it. But considering they haven't even finished their core case saying whether or not they're even allowed to use the branding yet, and they're trying to get $20 or $40 out of every new user, I'm going to pass.

I will check back at a later date to see its progress, but right now I don't think it's worth it.
