Seriously .... You are kidding with this right????

24855 DAYS divided by the average of 364.75 days in a year equals 68.1 YEARS not months.

1. 24855 days, 3 hours, 14 minutes = 35791394 minutes
2. 35791394 minutes / 5.6 years = 6391320 minute years
3. ??
4. Profit.

It's a safe bet to say sometime between now and the launch of Cataclysm.

How can I see my avatar without creating a post?

There is something inherently unsatisfying about the lottery system that we have to use by default for our chance to participate in the Cataclysm Beta. If I got an invite through the lottery system I would count myself lucky but honestly couldn't feel anything further than that. All I had to do was tick a button, which has been ticked since the day it appeared.

Now concerning my add-on. It is rather simple, but provides a feature that my wife and I really appreciate and use constantly. Also it seems that whoever downloaded it more than 3,000 times also appreciates it. I know those numbers are not as high as other add-ons, but I am very proud that my add-on has gotten that kind of attention. On that merit alone my Add-on has brought me great joy.

What really tickles me pink is to find out that my little add-on might qualifies me for even the smallest and most remote chance of participating in the beta. How much more rewarding could an invite be that one given for something you shared with the world over simply ticking a box? My hopes are not high, I am not even sure my add-on will be approved by whoever the mods are, but I got to click the request button and that made me feel pretty important.

Thank you for allowing me to host my add-on here and for giving me even the chance at participation in the beta for more than ticking a box.

-------

I see that most of the participators in this thread have Smod, Admin and other bars under their names indicating their status with the site. I want to know what special bars I have under my avatar so i am posting here.

Edit: Ok I have 1 bar and I think I will work on getting the 'Site Supporter' bar since that's probably an easy one to get.
Edit2: WoW! That was easy! Wowinterface is on the same network as... Wowhead! and Allakhazam! That's three of the sites I use absolutely more than any other all in one premium subscription! There are a ton of other sites listed but just premium Wowhead is worth the trivial fee.

It isn't a lottery on WoWI. If you and your addon qualify under our rules, you get a key (unless Blizz cuts us off).

Also, thanks for signing up as a site supporter!

What I mean was the lottery system blizzard is using on battle.net There you are allowed to tick off those buttons despite anything else.

As for signing up as a supporter I didn't even realize there was a premium option available for any of the sites.

I enjoy supporting the 'free' services I use. A lot of times it's only 1$ or 5$ but I assume even small contributions help keep all these valuable resources available for me.

There is something rewarding about supporting others that I don't think anyone would truly understand until they actually did it.

If you ever admired an author sending them a small donation is a great way to show your appreciation.

Key used, no beta game

Okay, so I've used my beta key on the battle.net site, but nothing shows up. I don't have any new game account on my Summary page. If I try to use the key again, it says it's been used already. What do I do now?

EDIT: nvm. You have to log out and in again for the new game to show up!

As long as it adheres to the rules and Blizz doesn't stop giving the WoWI staff keys, yes, you still have the have the capability of getting a key.
