I've been refreshing a particular invite every 5 or 10 minutes, and have had 'please click here if you're not person X' every time.

That person X has changed each time, and has never been me. I don't know how you guys are tracking identity, but it's not really working...

Hi James,

We're looking into this problem. Thanks for reporting it.

Did you either a) get the link you are clicking from someone forwarding you their invitation, or b) did you forward your invitation to someone else (as opposed to using the 'Invite More People' feature on the invite)?

Yes, that sounds a likely cause: one person sent out a link which then did the rounds with the whole group, so yes to a) and b)

As forwarding links is such ingrained behaviour, I think you might have an uphill struggle trying to get people to use the 'invite people' feature 100% of the time...
