Introduction
In LIGHT (get it? LOL) of all the nominations occurring over at the "Nominate Someone to Win a Beta Key" thread I've decided to create a thread and a poll about what exactly is going on over there. With all this "I NOMINATE MYSELF PLEASE GIVE ME" madness going on over there let's weed out the fun stuff shall we? Seriously ... a thing named Dawkling mistakenly puts it out there that it is a girl, then goes and says its a guy who dates other guys ... LOL check the "Is Dawkling gay?" spoiler below.
Now as far as nominations go, the ones where we actually have one person nominating ANOTHER person (not themselves), the nominator must have created the account well before the actual posting of the nominations thread. This weeds out all those 1 posters who are probably all the same person nominating him or her self over and over again (funny story below).
So lets get on to the nominations shall we? Also, I just realized there's no point in creating a poll because people will just vote from different locations on themselves.
Nominations
Okay so I tried to count the nominations but there's just WAAAAAAAAAAAY too many, but the general gist of actual nominations include:
FuDDx
Bill307
Lyriene
Mystlord
boesthius
konadora
Roffles
flamewheel91
MrHoon
IntoTheWow
Now I know this isn't 100% accurate but I just flipped through the pages to see what names I saw a lot and those were the ones that turned up. Completely agreeable in my honest opinion. Now, how many self nominations did I see? Over 300, which makes the thread that has only 390 posts have around 75% of self voters ... do these people actually think they're going to get a key? ^^
Fun Stuff

I would like to nominate myself since I've been playing starcraft for a long time and I just broke up with my boyfriend so I really need something else to focus on. And starcraft needs more girls playing
Nominee - Dawkling

heh thanks for the nomination. it's true that i don't have a beta key but i've already been offered one by staff/friends and i've refused probably 4 or 5 times now.
i'm going to be super busy this summer with work and studying for the MCAT so i don't want to be distracted. i'd rather have a beta key go to someone who will play daily and get the most mileage out of it, rather than someone like me who would only play once or twice a week.

Choosing school + work over beta I wish I had that much control.

I'd like to nominate kOre for being a master detective and for setting up the StarcraftMecca SC merchandise shop.
With me kissing his ass, perhaps he will give me a beta key as he did for infinity21.
I played Starcraft since it FIRST came out as a little kid because my dad was a pc bang owner in Korea.
Again, I nominate kOre, whom I do not personally know, but hope to begin to know as I begin to fall in love with him the moment he gives me a beta key.
Hi, kOre LOL

Hahaha just kidding though, even if I were to get a key, I wouldn't play it much so no point in giving me one
Conclusion
Props to TL for getting 50 keys and sharing them with the fans. A big two thumbs up for TL
