Frankly, I question how many people actually scored a ticket "legally" based on the queue system.

There are now numerous threads on various sites that advertised the codes (as well as a workaround that seemed to work, by Googling the Timetable page to bypass the queue and then booking through there), and given the outrageously high number of people that were in the queue (250k), I wouldn't be surprised if bots were employed.
