Pew pew. So apparently facebook changed their "become a fan" to "like". We are going to pick 20 random new likers to win a key. Join us on our new Page!
first post... although I've lurked here for quite a while without an account... question, will be receiving a message on Facebook letting us know if we were selected?
If we are on facebook topic already - since i have no idea about this page - how can i join for eg. official Starcraft Group like i have just joined TL group? ;o
p.s adding data reformating tag in the first post ([local]) would be nice..
Okay; here's the North American GMT Offset Chart At-A-Glance:
Atlantic Time (Nova Scotia, the Maritimes, and parts of ME) - GMT - 4 Eastern Time - GMT - 5 Central Time (and those counties that don't follow DST in the Eastern US) - GMT - 6 Mountain Time Zone - GMT - 7 Pacific Time Zone (except Alaska and Hawaii) - GMT - 8 Alaska and Hawaii - GMT - 10 (this includes "skillet handle" region of far SE Alaska)

generally sweet. Didn't know Teamliquid had a FB page. Heh. I remember my days in the dark before finding TL. No translations... no streaming games... no hyunjoon, no day[9] ... brrr terrible terrible days.

Southern LA!?
Hmmm one of these days Im gonna have to stop being lazy and organize a lan or something >.<
Time to get hyped for inevitable disappointment as the facebook numbers skyrocket haha
Signed up of course, would have done regardless if the chance to get a key or not but yeah. Fingers crossed Will probably give to my gf though as she's dying to get her key rofl.
It's you XD I kinda like random giveaway's because you don't need any skill. But I always dislike them after I don't get picked :D It's always like that.
Someone else with the name Nick got picked. Bad beat. Anyway, thanks for the opportunity TL, this and the scavenger hunts are really fun and exciting. Congrats to those who did win and I hope to be joining you soon.
Are there more keys to be won on Facebook? It looks like they said they will be posting more in an hour (aprox 1 hour ago) and I am just wondering If I read it wrong or if they will be posting more winners.
i lost interest in getting the beta key, i have the single player beta...3000 people after like 300 keys maybe blizzard shoulda just give like 1000 keys to teamliquid from the start =(

Oh you heard from them? I'd emailed them but hadn't heard anything, pre-ordered Collectors as soon as it was available, then heard all this news about shops giving away the keys with preorders, but I guess once again Australia fails /facepalm.jpg
You have a point there Mykill. But also take into account that people who are here for a key may end up using the site to learn more about the game and such (At least that's what happened to me), given the solid community and all the articles that are written.

Yup that's right, was just looking for a VOD of SC 2 last 2008 then I stumbled upon TL.net which I found out to be an interesting website
Yongjoon Cho Eli Bator Thomas Imbert Villumsen Jason Jiang Marcel Singer Jean-Paul Wlodarczyk Jose Romero Fidel Flores Jon Shea Aseem Prasad Paul Gheorghe Tony Jennings Marko Dostanic Khemrin Sarun Jonathan David Chang Tim Lukowski Ali Atoof Jeffrey Yuan Gene Frazier Thomas Goldrick Joseph Rey Nick Ves David Růžička Mathieu Jean
I was lucky enough to get selected in the second wave (the other 10 - David Růžička, that's me). I can't believe I've actually got chosen, since I never had much luck with selections where I can't affect the outcome. I was trying both Scavenger hunts, but sadly enough I somehow allways missed the right time due to uni / work. I'm really really happy to be able (hopefully) to join the beta and work on my skills, since it's been some time I've played an e-sport rts seriously (AoEII > W3). So thanks a lot team liquid for this opportunity! Congratulations to the other winners and good luck for everyone who is still after his key.

Dissregard, just got my Amazon preorder beta key :D
New liker reporting I missed Hot_Bid's 11 pm message about the last beta keys giveaway and I almost killed myself when I saw my name scratched from the list because I didn't reply till Monday 7 am

Just called a couple of different stores this morning - they all said that even if you ordered in store, they'd just take your email address and the keys would be emailed on the 28th.... lame =/
How would teamliquid know what our user names are one facebook? My facebook account and Teamliquid accounts are not the same. Will they announce if on facebook or teamliquid?

I've actually been here for a long time...I usually just read all the strat stuff but never post because I feel my knowledge isn't strong enough.

I am definitely new to TL... and one of those you mentioned who posts mainly for keys ;(
Since Beta started more than 2 months ago.. I've been waiting to get one to no avail.. this is just sad...
Since 17 February 2010 when beta was announced.. I've: - joined the gosucoaching logo design competition and submitted like 5 or 6 designs? - joined the design a unit competition and submitted a zerg unit plus image. - started a blog to rant on my misery. - joined strange contests on youtube, facebook, which requires you to join as members. - helped a fellow TL member here to design a logo for his French SC2 website. - watched incredibly amount of day[9] and was touched by #100 the same way as almost everyone else.. - watched a ton of HDstarcraft on youtube.. - watched a ton of Husky on youtube and muse at the one where he got the weird haircut.. - reading on official Blizzard forum everyday at work... - F5 F5 F5
im not going to moan on like most people seemt o about not getting a key. No ive never played SC1 or BW, and yes I am from the Wow community but SC2 looks awesome! I think i must have watched 30 or so vids in the last few days alone from HDstarcraft and HDHusky. Seems ive missed the boat on the most comps that have been running and cant just pre order for one as im from the Uk which is harsh. Hopefully only afew month off retail!!

Same here I've been playing BW for about 2-3 years now but I guess I'm not the 'let's-post-something-on-the-forum' kinda guy, personally I don't mind people that are new to Starcraft in general to get beta keys but I really think that if those people abandon it after a week or a month they should give it back to the community somehow , after all, there are a lot of us who have been craving for one since... well, forever
