THere is definite weirdness when trying to add people to the list. I've been trying to invite people by entering their email address - but I keep getting "user [email protected] not found" - How can an Email address not be found? I was able to enter a few addresses, but not others. It's almost like the acceptance criteria has changed in the last 10 minutes.

Yes - definite weirdness - BTW - I have to click on "View Source" to copy text off your pages, which throws me off, but, "You now can invite people to lists by email address, even if they're not members of Stormweight. When they sign up for an account with the email address you invited, they will be privy to the lists from which you sent the invitation."
But, I'm unable to do this _any more_ (could for a few) no matter how many times I try. Bug?
Having to click view source is so drag and drop doesn't accidentally highlight text. I'll make it so that only applies on the pages with drag and drop.
I've gotten a number of replies about the email invitation. I am looking into that currently (one monitor is that code, the other is HN). It's absolutely a bug if it doesn't do what you, the user, expect -- even if it's what we intended. However, this seems like a true bug, probably an overstrict email validation regex.

Maybe instead of making the whole idea area draggable, make just the idea's titlebar draggable so we could gain the ability to select and copy text.
The bug was that you ran into our free account limit and we didn't give you the proper messaging. Our pricing model only gives free accounts five members per list. I've upgraded your account to an unlimited beta account in thanks for finding this bug.
