To run a beta with repect to usability, ideally you let in a batch of users, get their feedback, implement some changes, then let in the next batch to test out the changes with a fresh mind. Mind you, I don't know if that's what Wikia are doing, or whether they just want to create a desire for using the skin by making it a scarce resource.
