Dude, to be overly direct, you waved a bunch of steaks in front of a pack of wolves. You even have Hilton still buttering you up to try and get some. It is exactly what happens.

But don't worry about it. This isn't the community you speak of. What you want is all your friends in your area to benefit. Don't give any thought to Pinside. Care about the folks you actually know. The guys you play games with. It is the most fair thing to give your close friends dibs. Then move on to good friends of friends. Then move to acquaintances, and then send out general pinside info for the scraps. I'm sure you know some great guys that would love to share your good fortune. Start there.
