Still Wondering... |

"a 10 million user beta test?"
"The BC expansion didn't sell as well as that."
"Are you high? It sold 3.5 million copies in the first month..."
So you're saying my original statement is wrong? 
I simply said it hasn't sold as well as the original. And it hasn't. I never sad it hadn't sold a shitload of copies... because it did. I was there at midnight elbow to elbow with hundreds of other geeks. And we all soon realized the dropped loot in Outland was better than a lot of raid loot in the original. 
And no, I'm not/wasn't high. Wish I was....
edit: I'm still wondering what the latest figures are on the twelve (or whatever) million subscribers... how many actually have the add-on. Even half is an extension on their license to print money which WotLK will continue to extend for years or until the next add-on.

The BC expansion didn't sell as well as that. I don't think they have even released the info on it. I know they have been bundling it with the original for quiet some time. Either way, yeah, your odds of getting in are about the same as being struck by lightening or winning the Lotto.

| You would think so, but I'm betting most of the people opt-ing in just want to check out the expansion rather than provide feedback and look/test for actual bugs. These same people will cry about the lack of beta testing when Blizz has to patch 4 or 5 times within a week of release due to breakage and fine tuning. |

I did pay via CC, but I'm pretty sure it's just the fact that you weren't a BC customer.

Been over 15 months since I last played/paid via credit card (so yeah, if you were using a credit card for Burning Crusade your eligible, so it seems).
I hadn't played for over a year before BC hit shelves. I played it another two months after release of BC. Then quit and rejoined for another month early last year...
Still waiting to get my WAR beta invite. I was hoping they would throw me a bone since I also beta tested their previous games.

I'm going to guess that you didn't have Burning Crusade, Ant, so you're not eligible.

osage: Are you sure? Mine said "This account is not eligible to enter the Wrath of the Lich King Beta." I haven't played and subscribed (prepaid game cards) since 2/2006.
Hmm, that's weird. I let my subscription run out this spring but it said I've successfully opted in. I guess there's some "recently enough" time limit, then.
Still, considering the millions of people hitting that button my chance of getting in isn't a whole lot higher than yours. Think we need to go down to the tenth decimal to see any difference 
EDIT: I always used a credit card to pay.

For anyone interested, you'll be able to opt-in even if your subscription isn't active.
