Godspeed for that.
You know that it still ends up to the BM and the devs themselves. If their intention was to scam, they don't care any single emotion to those they scammed.
Just do a hardwork, not just in doing what is needed to work in your bounties, but also do hardwork to what you're planning to join at, why and how can you say that you'll leave the bounty with no tears.
Work smart, not hard.
