Isn't there a retest mode or something that means uou can create your own virtual chain? Is there a reason you're wanting to do this?
The fees might also outweigh the price of actually buying those 100 testnet coins and if they didn't then there might be a problem.
The only issue I see is people could start hoarding testnet coins assuming there's going to be some value in them or one might be built up unnecessarily by someone with enough funds to make it happen (which might not be much). Then there's the risk of the chin being reset again and I'm not sure if that's likely if it looks to be quite big at some point...

I just was curious if anyone would be upset if someone tried to make a market for Bitcoin and Bitcoin Testnet exchange market for fun.
It's really hard to get a bunch of testnet coins for testing stuff, it'd be nice to be able to buy 20 fast... The current testnet coin faucets aren't great and it's really hard to find a pool in order to just rent a rig and mine.
I was just thinking about the idea for a Freebitcoins.com/xchange.... I kinda like the idea as long as there are lots of notices and such. Reorgs seem to be the biggest obvious concern off the top of my head.
I imagine it would be a dust market, but fuck, it'd be nice to be able to get 100 testnet coins fast.
