The way I understood it is that the emails were being sent out in the hour or so before the Steam release to prevent just that issue.

Also I don't see why it would take an hour to send 107,000 automated emails. Doesn't exactly seem like that many.

No, not really. Time to save/kill some Kerbals. Same thing, really.
It's the law of equivalent exchange.  To save a life you have to kill someone.  Sacrifice a kerbal to rescue another.  It's how the world remains in balance.
You're not making Philosopher's stones with Kerbals, are you?

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

It honestly feels like a lot of their problems came from the fact that their entire team was composed of cats, and the people who were supposed to be herding them were also cats.

That means either two things..

1. They are going to announce the game's beta release on steam
2. Tens of thousands of people across the globe pressed F5 at the same time.

I got a bit of a chuckle when, in between buffering (damn mobile data...), OmnipotentEntity began playing The Final Countdown in the minutes leading up to release.

Yeah it was likely that everyone checked the site at once. luckily this shouldn't affect the keys...

But it might affect my "beta-key redirect" ability.
