Beta story


I live near San Francisco. After waiting in school all day, I finaly make it home. I franticaly check my mail box. I pull out a stack of paper and bend the mail to see if there is a CD in it. *snap*. My heart stops..... I quickly go through the pile to see is my precious was ruined. I finaly get to a letter that seems to hold a CD. I rip it open. Its an AOL disk!! I am relived, but still no beta for me.....

moral of story: Don't bend the mail.

I live in San Francisco and no beta for me either. I heard the door ring because i thought the package might be delivered to the door since my mailman usually does that with bigger envelopes (he's so nice). Anyways, I was dissapointed to see that it was a Lillian Vernon package for my mom...Oh well...

no beta for me either...no CD either. Guess I'll have to fulfill myself with talking to my clanmates, and reading the beta manual so I don't look to newbish out there.

I live in Great Britain, I signed up hoping to get a slice of the beta pie. I checks the beta site every half hour to see if I made open beta. But I didnt and I wasnt lucky enough to get an exclusive beta download spot either. I figure us Euro peeps suck, then I notice UK peeps are in open beta and I figure im just not lucky enough. I try to enter competitons but they are US only. I hear about this "Refer a friend" thing so I start posting on forums and asking in the PSU IRC if anyone had a spare slot. Then a guy comes in and asks for me and another guy to PM him, first to PM gets the referal. Now Im in beta!

Moral of the story: I am lucky afterall, just not as lucky as the exclusive folks! Shameless begging works, although you tend to annoy some folks who weren't so lucky.
