No, it sounds quite reasonable and good-willed. I even have an idea of sort of what he has in mind, and it sounds interesting. I would have signed up if I didn't already have too many games going and way too much work to do and other stuff to do etc.
As for why people might drop after learning the rules, that's understandable, since he means to do something unexpected that some players might not like. Many players only like certain kinds of games and certain approaches to play. I won't speculate, since I wouldn't want to influence the experiment that way.

He expects you to just tell him your password instead, even though he has the master password and doesn't need such a thing. Once again, no reason is given. Combined with the secrecy of just about everything involved in the game, including even what map is involved. Plus he expects that people will then immediately drop.
Does this sound a bit suspicious to you? Experimental is one thing, but this sounds like an outright scam.
