    But if you sign up for beta you still have the chance of getting in via email, so checking forum is an option to fast entering it

    I agree. I've done a lot of all day forum watching multiple times before to get into other games CBTs, and this shouldn't be acceptable.

    I'm aware they're gonna post some on Facebook/Twitter and here on the foums, I just hope that they post a decent amount at once, rather than a few every now and then. This way the keys won't get taken in minutes and only those who spend all day lurking for the keys will get them. Posting 50 (or whatever acceptable high amount at once) or so should allow a decent few hours or so until they all get taken up, allowing those who are unable to sit around all day to get in.
    I'd hate to miss out because I wasn't here in the 5 minute window to get one of the 5 keys, for example.

    You know if they give away 50 keys (that is way too much) I (I wont) but I can easy make at last 10 acc and give it to my friends? Beside of that I think there is way more than 50 people wating for the keys so even if they drop 50 they will be gone in 1-2minutes(maybe less!), But if you sign up for beta is only a matter of time to get the email

    And that's another reason why a large amount of keys should be posted at once, you or I might not do this, but I'm sure there are others who will take multiple keys and use them all at once, unfortunately.

    The biggest problem with the signing thing is the fact that there are way too many people who signed and didn't even looked at forums or anything. Not to mention those who just registered on forums without posting anything. I don't think such people should take keys instead of people who are interested in the game for long time. I regret I've registered so late, while I knew about this game earlier when it was presented "work in progress" in our Polish CD-Action magazine a while ago. Still, ever since I've registered I was checking forums few times a day, posting a bit in some topics, and now I'm hoping I'll get my beta invite :)

    And that's why I think it's stupid idea. There shouldn't be an option for picking few keys by 1 person. They should only invite people who signed-up earlier and were at least viewing forum.

    Yeah there is no way to know that but 1 person already have the beta and is looking a key for his friend

    So even if they post 100 keys they all will be gone in 1 min or 2, with or without 100 people

    Well at last you got lucky that is a random system, I sign in 2 days after they announce it and still can be the last one to get a key

    Don't start the old lurkers vs active forumites thing - it's old hat, and happens in every beta that has an active community. I opted in for beta first day submission was up, and have visited this forum daily - just haven't gotten an account as I have nothing to contribute apart from spam or noninformed opinon based on beta feedback from other - myself not having access to the game. Does that make me less deservant of a key than someone who participates in every thread and yet says nothing of value? Just curious. Either way, I think Blue Manchu seems to be handling it well while still growing the interest for the game. Hoping for some luck soon :)

    Out of curiousity - now that there are beta keys from 4 sources (forum, e-mail list, twitter and facebook group) - if someone manages to get a code from from one of the dev postings and then later recieves one from the mailing list, can they give the new key back to the community, or is the new key tied to the person it's sent to and thus wasted?

    I just now created an account so I could agree with this. I registered for beta on day one and have been waiting patiently just like everyone else. Just because I don't sit constantly refreshing these forums everyday doesn't mean I don't deserve a slot in the beta. Once I get in, forum participation will become part of my daily routine, but until then I doubt I'd be contributing much to the cause when I've never seen the game other than what is on Youtube.
