I dont know for a fact it was a loophole, but i had 5ppl tell me it cant be done, and i was told by the last few that 3 other people had already told me this... Kinda got caught after a while. I just found it interesting i couldnt find a recent success story about doing this from anyone, so my guess is its no longer possible. This is by no means official word however.
