I'm not the best Starcraft player, in fact I'm pretty mediocre, but I do have a certain love for the game, and, despite my terrible APM and my complete inability to multitask, I do have an enormous ability to sponge up and memorize vast amounts of theory and academic knowledge. I want a beta key so I can play online with my friends, have a good time, and practice, practice practice, because there's pride in doing anything well, especially if it's difficult. I'm a staunch believer in self-improvement, and learning skills and getting good at things is something I love to do more than anything else.

Ideally, I'd just throw down the five dollars for a pre-order and call it good, but I'm living on a fixed income and I have to save up what I can to take my cat to the vet for his bad hips, so I'm taking shot at various contests and having generally poor luck at them.

I'm crossing my fingers that you'll choose me, but, even if you don't, your generosity to strangers like this is vastly appreciated. ^^

There's quite a number of beta key contests revolving around "why" but upon further investigation, the key word here is "want".

Let's go from specific to general shall we?
I want one in order to rule the ladder and make a name for myself in the SC2 community.
I want one in order to play Terran and understand the true meaning of a mech build.
I want one in order to get ready for the release of SC2
I want one in order to play online with other people
I want one in order to play SC2 beta without downloading the lazytown loader.
I want one in order to play the latest game that's sure to be a hit.
I want one in order to jump the bandwagon.
I want one because the beta requires a key.

These are just examples which may or may not actually reflect my actual perspective of the beta.
Now if you asked "Why you deserve a SC2 beta key", then there'd be some more interesting answers involved.

I want a key because I've got a twisted ankle (having a surgery on the 13), and won't be able to walk for a while, and I'm getting sick from just watching streams, and i can't preorder the game from where i live.


I'm not the most deserving person tho, I'm sure theres a lot of better players than me who still haven't got a key. :/

I smashed my leg bones, and broke both ankles, along with that i have a fractured rip, and an injured nose. My toes are also decemated, and barely recognizable anymore. My hips are deformed so much it looks like a washer. The only thing i have functioning is my arm and my fingers, and my brain/eye site.

I deserve the key also because i am a lot better player than the quoted post, and i am 10x as more injured as he.

As my finals are over, I would like nothing more than to step into the SCII Beta scene. I'd also like to try it out before its official out in July.

thanks

I forgot to mention, I'm also afflicted with a very rare carnivorous bacteria, (fruit of a government experiment) that devoured about 99% of my flesh, including my private parts. That and mine testicular cancer. Yea, I'm fucked up!!1

I tried to get one from Gamestop pre order but the store said they were out. So I ordered online and there was never an email. So I called Gamestop and they said it was the store's problem (I picked in-store pickup). Upon the return to the store they told me to call customer service. Customer service said to deal with the store, and now I can't even cancel my preorder either... on the other hand my friend got 3 keys unethically from Gamestop and gave them to his brothers

tl:dr Gamestop screwed me over

I've been playing SC since 2004, despite having only joined TL last year. I've never considered myself a gamer, because Starcraft has been the only game to ever captivate me in such a passionate manner. I'd love a beta key because it would allow me the opportunity to become an integral part of the community of the video game franchise that I love.

I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

Out of my group of friends that play SC2, we only have one key to share amongst us. If we had another key we could actually play against each other and improve.

If you choose me for the beta key then you'll be giving about 5 other people a chance to play beta.

And if you choose me you can name our clan when we start one!

I can't preorder the game (not available in my country)... so if you can get me one I will be really happy...

I surrender my soul
Adun hear my call.
One day I'll sit beside your throne
In Aiur's great hall.
Like so many before me
I'll die with honor and pride:

The right of a protoss warrior
Forever to fight by your side,
Send a sign, raise the sairs,
Wave a last goodbye,
Destiny is calling,
Immortality be mine!

Call the templar to cast the runs
Weave a magic spell;
We who die in battle are born
Not for heaven, not for hell.

We are sons of Aiur,
The fire we burn inside
Is the legacy of protoss warriors
Who reign above in the sky!

I will lead the charge
My blades into the wind,
Sons of Aiur fight
To die and live again,
Sairs ships cross the sky
In cold wind and rain
Fly into the black of night
Magic stars our guiding light!

Today the blood of battle
Upon my blades will never dry
Many I'll send into the ground
Laughing as they die

We are sons of Aiur,
The fire we burn inside
Is the legacy of protoss warriors
Who reign above in the sky!

I will lead the charge
My blades into the wind,
Sons of Aiur fight
To die and live again,
Sairs ships cross the sky
In cold wind and rain
Fly into the black of night
Magic stars our guiding light!

Place my body on a sair
And burn it in the sky,
Let my spirit rise -
Sair ship carry me.
Take me to Adun
Where my brothers wait for me,
Fires burn into the sky
My spirit will never die!

I want to give a key to my friend who got me interested in starcraft by talking about "cattlebruisers" in 5th grade.

And that same friend in the same grade writing the entire SC story for a writing assignment but changing the ending to the overmind just being misunderstood and lonely and everybody becomes friends lmao

I want one so I can face trounce a friend who thinks he's good (he's probably worse than the average USEASt pub) .

Surely thats a good reason?
But Garimto was always more than just a Protoss...
