Oh noooooo....
Well, it was clearly stated as a limit of 1 per person. In fact I'm even surprised the system let the same single account confirm more then 1 order.
Anyway, time will tell.

That's right, one /person, address, or credit card. However, if you happen to have friends or families members who happen to have their own SS acct.'s and separate shipping and billing addresses......well, you get the picture.

I actually placed the order for a friend of mine who might sell it don't know but thats what my second order was and on her credit card too so it was legit and won't be cancelled
not nessicarily. i ended up with two of a limit one excl. without them canceling once. i felt bad and was going to cancel it but i decided just to see if it would go through and it did. so there is a loop hole out there unless they are now aware of it and eliminated it. that was for the excl. 1/6" faramir and seeing how he came back on second and even third chance i didn't feel too bad but i won't do it again.
woohoo! I'm glad they'll be shipping more then one over here then lol

As far as I can see there are 4 of us on the board from the UK who are confirmed getting one (5 if you take into account WoS is getting two somehow 
)

According to the list, I was #30 at one minute and 12 seconds and then #31 was only 2 seconds later and there are no more Ts after that so I almost didn't get one.
I had to log in and put in my password so maybe that is why it took me so long.
I got to the computer about 5 minutes before order time (10 AM Pacific time). At that point the regular Sideshow screen was already gone and the self refreshing clock page was up counting the time so I couldn't log in.
So I have some questions:
How long before 10 AM does the self refreshing clock page come up?
If you get there before the clock page goes up, can you log in and if yes, does that mean that once the process starts you are already logged in so you save some seconds that way, or do you still have to log in again?
How often does the page refresh on its own? It seems like it was refreshing for me about every 20 seconds.
The way if was refreshing for me, it refreshed at something like 9:59:56 and then it didn't refresh again for about 20 seconds so I didn't see the order screen until about 10:00:16 for the first time. So I was already 16 seconds behind. Then I had to log in so that slowed me down again, and that's how I ended up with one of the slowest times.
Is there a way to make the screen self-refresh more frequently than every 20 seconds?
Is there a way to be on a more favorable self-refresh "schedule" so that you get a refresh at about 10:00:01 so that you get to the order screen faster?
Is it just better to MANUALLY refresh the screen at exactly 10:00:00 ?
Or is it better to manually refresh at about 9:59:55 so that you get there at exactly 10:00:00 ?
I'm curious what tomandshell (14 seconds) and pruette (24 seconds) did to be so fast? Would you two please share your super speed secrets?

To answer your questions:
Yes you can log on to the regular SS login but as soon as the Streamline site comes up you are logged out and can only log in when it is order time
Correct
At exactly 10 am PST the browser SHOULD automatically refresh regardless of when it last refreshed for you. Example, for me the page refreshed last at 9:59:51 and then refreshed automatically again at exactly 10:00:00
No, it's just the luck of the draw.
They have the power of the one ring, that makes them invisible to the servers so that they can log in anytime they please
Anywhere between 15-30 min

Well, IB beat me to the answers, but I will add that I have never had an auto-refresh occur EXACTLY at 10:00:00. In theory it is supposed to work that way, but it never has for me.
And I too want to know what Tom's super speed secret is! And I want to know NOW!
