Now *that* is something I want to find the details behind... just as a thought exercise.
Is it that it's explicitly not done for the first membership year? Or that the eVIP trigger is in March? That is to say, would a non-EXP that dares the "Earliest to EXP 2008 challenge" receive a set in March '08, as well as another in March '09?
Inquiring minds want to know!
