CoreOS: Bootstrapping etcd

Kelsey Hightower, CoreOS's Developer and Advocate, gives a demo on bootstrapping etcd.
etcd is an open source, distributed, consistent key-value store for shared configuration, service discovery, and scheduler coordination. By using etcd, applications can ensure that even in the face of individual servers failing, the application will continue to work. etcd is a core component of CoreOS software that facilitates safe automatic updates, coordinating work being scheduled to hosts, and setting up overlay networking for containers.

Thanks for the demo. What happens if I don't specify cluster size cause I expect it to grow up to a certain value? Say the cluster size is not specified and the default value of 3 is used, what happens when a fourth, fifth, sixth, etc node is added?
