blizz realeased a bunch of keys to people that already have the beta with the intent for them to "invite-a-friend" so essentially... they gave a shitload of keys to people already in the beta hoping they would give them to friends.
So I am going to give mine to a deservant TL.net admin, they do a lot of work to keep the site running properly and I dont need 2 keys.. and I dont need $150 so badly that I cant help out the community with it instread Which makes no fucking sense, why not give them to people who don't have them, who check their email every hour of every day. Why not give them to the people that kneel over their beds every night in prayer that tomorrow, they may get that fateful email from a blizzard address. I think I'm just going to resign myself to the fact that I will have to wait for the release... Because if a shitload of work wasnt put into this site everyday we all wouldn't be here. They commentate games and set up streams and get rid of the trolls and make cool events for us to watch like TSL, and we dont pay a penny to them for any of this. So for once, One of them is going to get something in return. You don't get it? All Broodwar sites get say 5-12 keys from Blizzard. Now with the "Invite a friend wave" the number doubles. TL.net can provide keys to their stuff members on their own. Do you also donate money to Burger King when you had a delicious burger o_O Rage more that your not getting the key? I opened this blog so the TL staff would see it and get back to me on who needs one. For all I care you can make your own blog about how many people are getting keys and because all you do is complain about not having one, nobody gave you one... did you mean to quote me because it makes no sense :-)
no lol, just me being lazy not editing the quote

Actually, I think everyone with a colored name has a key. Why don't you give it to someone with a star, instead?
I know for a fact that Roffles still doesn't have one.

i dont care who you give it to, and i think a star member is a great idea.
i just want to clear up any misconceptions that blizzard took care of all the staff. tl got the same number of keys as a fansite that is less than a year old, and we got some for contests that we gave away to members.
the majority of staff in the beta got theirs by buying a blizzcon ticket like everyone else. to the guy making the burger king analogy, if tl charged you for something your example might work, but tl is more like a guy throwing a free bbq for everyone on the block. you might kick in to help cover the ribs.

Well pachi said both sonuvbob and zxk3 didnt have one and that zxk3 really wanted one. So its up to them, if they wana share it thats up to them or if they want to otherwise I'm going to think of a fun little contest for them to compete for it. Something silly and quick no idea what it is yet, depends on them.

This is a really awesome idea. I support that all staff/star should get a key before I do. Of course, making them do silly things is win-win. =) This blog needs bumping because many people are under the misconception that all TL.net staff and contributors have keys, whereas they actually gave a few out for contests instead of hoarding it for themself. (correct me if i am wrong on this point).

In this thread alone we know that roffles, i10f, lyriene and I also know Beyonder doesn't have a key, so there's no worries...

We were not allowed to hoard them for ourselves. I guess we could have rigged it that way but our instructions were to give them away.
It is funny that we got the same number of keys as scsuperfriends.com, but in general our staff have them via blizzcon or other connections. Especially now that the friend invites are out things should be ok. I like the ideas of giving to star members because they often do behind the scene stuff like streaming etc.
But whoever gets it, it is a generous thing. So

I changed the format of the key distribution actually BECAUSE I found out that l10f is the translator of hyungjun becomes a progamer.. I cant get enough of that show, and because of his efforts on it. All the star members can thank l10f for his translations for getting them entry to the contest,
however
the wrath of sonuvbob and zxk3 goes to you as well Stay tuned to the OP for further details... Im brainstorming

Heya, I also got this invite-a-friend mail from Blizzard, so if there's any european admin or star member still missing SC2 beta, shoot me a pm.
I don't really have any RL friends that actually deserve the beta key or that doesn't already have it so i figured i'd give it someone who'd actually use it well.

In case it matters, just want to throw out there that SonuvBob totally deserves a beta key. He's a super contributor even though you don't see most of the stuff he does. Oh, and his bans are hilarious.

I'd say give it to l10f, im so happy he translated Hyungjun becomes a progamer.

Don't make some contest to give your key to staff... either just pick one or have them pm you first come first serve.
