Looking forward to it, thanks for your message.

Anyways, I just did the "Set up password recovery", and instead of getting 1.000 stellars it forces me again into FB.

That makes sense - to get any stellars from the giveaway (either from the initial sign up or from setting up password recovery), you need to confirm your identity. Otherwise, you'd be able to create a bunch of accounts and just get the 1k from password recovery on each.

it says the FB account is too new even though it's several months old?

So when other methods are introduced will those of us that signed up on day 1 but don't have facebook accounts still be eligible for the giveaway and for the same amount?
