What happened to EU # 000001 - 000012 ? Interesting that the total figures are so close, too.

BTW, the beta ticket page doesn't let the paranoid amongst us verify that we signed up for the right region

... and to be clear, the email address provided does NOT have to match the one associated with one's WoW account?

The numbers are assigned in order as people sign up, not by realm. So 000001 - 000012 were assigned to US people, 000013 - [whatever] were EU, etc. That's why the end numbers are so close, too.

The only way currently that you can check which realm you signed up under is by asking me to check it for you. No, the email address does not need to be the one associated with your Blizzard account. It is just the one that you have associated with your account here, and needs to be one that you will check.

Well that is disappointing

I guess I have to wait until next week

MattCairns · 07-28-08, 06:50 PM

Yay this is great news. Lets hope we get them "soon"

Was that chosen by what timezone we use on the forums?

***Cairenn*** · 07-28-08, 09:00 PM

What on earth are you talking about? You had to manually indicate which realm you are using when you signed up.

I talked with a little birdie friend of mine who is already in the beta (that birdie has another birdie friend who got him in, bastard

). He indicated that his birdie friend told him invites are generally sent out on Thursday evenings. This fits with the Friday deadline currently in place for the WWI/BlizzCon attendees, so I hope this little birdie is right.

Here's to hoping the little birdie is right!

whoaa · 07-29-08, 09:56 AM

and from the look of the forums the 1st wave of opt-ins were sent out as well

Nuchaleft · 07-29-08, 10:09 AM

by the sounds of it they were already out.

First of all, huge thanks to WoWI for this Beta Key giveaway

And I don't want to sound desperate but I'm refreshing my email since monday and I suppose that our keys are not out yet. Can anyone confirm that?

Thanks

We are three people at Atlasloot and no one has gotten an email yet. I suppose that confirms it

No actual word on when we might see our keys from a blizzard poster though.

I remember I saw somewhere that they were sending out a batch today... Hmm...

I think you all are referring to my post. A guild mate of mine was in the F&FA and subsequently the beta. He got in through a real life friend of his that happens to work for Blizzard.

It was this friend of his that said most key deliveries are sent out on Thursday nights. Later, someone reminded us of the post that WWI/BlizzCon passes must be redeemed by the end of the day Friday. And a customer service rep said he knew of no deliveries before the 1st.

I think we can all safely assume a delivery will start to go out sometime from Thursday night to Saturday-ish, assuming Blizzard doesn't run into any snags or delays. Who knows how many keys they will be sending out though. Depending on the number, it may take several hours or a day for you to actually receive your email message.

At any rate, I'm anxiously awaiting my key just as much as the next guy

It'll be Soon(tm), hang in there guys!

Just for clarification: All of the sign ups via Beta Club, WWI and BlizzCon codes should be distributed. It does NOT mean you can't still sign up via our giveaway.

Shadowkith · 07-31-08, 10:21 PM

Any set date next week that they will be sent out? itll be kool if its Monday the 4, thats my birthday, what a great gift, having my name sent in for a beta key.

Soon™

Hmmh, chances getting the keys sent out this week seem slim at the moment, as I doubt they are going to send anything on the weekend. Still a few hours to go today for us Europeans, some more for our American friends, and I have no idea about this, but maybe the EU keys will be sent from overseas as well, giving us even more hours of mailbox-checking. [/meh]

I think they're all getting sent from US as the beta servers are at US aswell.
