Wow, a lot of late guesses. I was hoping to start the random giveaways about mid April, but with these guesses they may have to wait.

Yeah, I'm surprised as well. I succumbed to the groupmind, though. I originally had April 22, but seeing everyone else guessing May pushed me back five days.

Shoulda stuck with it. Although it will probably be earlier still.
