OK, i'm ready for someone to point out the fatal flaw now

OK - here ya go - First off - most LLs(and submitters) misunderstand the SE value of recips - there isnt any unless the page submitted has its own outside linking generating page rank to that linked page.
Where does the submitted warning page get its page rank? From the LLs linking to it obviously - so by linking to your warning page I am generating the page rank for you - only to have you pass it back to me at a reduced value as it is now shared between 12 LLS.
Now increase that split on the shared page rank to 40 - not a winning solution
More important is that you would think along the lines of making each "mirror" of the free site unique enough to avoid any duplication penalty - and most impotant - most older LLs know that there is little - if any SE value in recip linking from free sites - we already have traffic/link trades with the LLs you are submitting to so we arent going to get any more value from your free site - most of us that have been around for a while realized a long time ago that we need the submitters free site for content and we trade traffic to your site for it - end of story
