Russ and Bryan are extremely busy down at E3. So while they're not here I decided to do some seismic adjustments to some of the servers. I found that if I kick the database server just right, 500 keys get randomly spit out. But in other news, I've been told by IT that if I snap another HDD housing I have to pay for it.

So here's hoping you get in the 500 latest released keys and see you on the battlefield!

Since this thread is quiet now. Do those keys go out right away, meaning by the time you post about it I should stop staring at my pending icon to see if it will change.

Haha, that's probably the one thing everyone is wondering about. :D

Anyways, cool to see that you're able to expand the amount of beta testers at a steady rate. I take that as a good sign.

This please. Actually, just toss it into a tumble-dryer and set it to go for a few days.

I think you need to change the meaning of Pending to Accepted... let's call Websters.

Out of curiosity, Paul, how long is it between your announcement of more keys like this and the emails / invites being sent out? I need to know how long I should sit here and spam the refresh button before I give up and wait for the next announcement ;)

they outsource the random picking to a small company in burma that consists of 20 asians in a tiny and cramped room picking written names from a bucket, and they only have one pencil between them.

You guys should know better. Paul handing out Beta Keys is the same thing as strangers offering you candy. The best thing to do here is kick him squaw in da nuts, run to the nearest adult, kick THEM squaw in da nuts, and then run off into the sunset laughing.

Kick it harder, Paul. I don't think it's working. I won't know for sure until that yellow Pending bar stops haunting my dreams.
