Please let me summarize what's going on here for people not having the time to read all this. Tl;dr:

Some guy got paid 1 BTC to essentially scratch his virtual balls for 1 month in advance.
Other people not scratching their virtual balls for 1 BTC in 1 month saw that guy was scratching his virtual balls for 1 BTC in 1 month.
Greed and jealousy kicked in.
Heated debate followed about why this one guy is allowed to scratch his virtual balls for 1 BTC in 1 month and they can't.
