Even though it's totally unfair that the people who payed for blizzcon tickets. I understand why Blizzard is picking people from the opt in. They need to see how the beta runs on specific computers.

Actually sending to a 1000man e-mail list doesn't take that long.. this is the internet you know
I worked on newsletters that we sent out instantly by the thousands at my old job. So this part obviously isn't the problem.

Unfortunately, this might be a bit more complicated because they have to attach a unique game key to every email?

I'd imagine they have a script that generates a key, that key is inputted into a database as a legitimate key for usage in the SC2 Beta and then an e-mail address is taken from the list of addresses to send to. This process then repeated untill a key is generated, inputted to database and sent to recipients e-mail address for every e-mail address in said list.

So the real work would be to compile all the addresses registered for the beta.
Which should also be a breeze since we all went to some wow site and input our address, so they should have that list ready and waiting. This really can't be that much of a hassle.
The losers always whine about their best while the winner goes home and fucks the prom queen.

Blizzard really, really needs to work on its communication.

To say that a large number of Blizzcon registrations are being emailed keys and then giving zero updates after no one receives a key is quite annoying. I'm fairly understanding about wanting to test things with a smaller group of users - but keeping one constantly guessing what is going on just pisses me off. Is it that hard to communicate what isn't happening (ie. "email invites to Blizzcon not going out today - will update when we plan to try sending them again") so that people don't just waste time waiting and hoping?
The melody of logic always plays the notes of truth.

Use your head. They announce "keys are being sent out!" to no specific number of people and at no specific time. We all sit here like idiots refreshing our B.net accounts for 7 hours while they continue to wish-wash and not give any concrete details. Nobody from 07 or 08 admits to having a key. We're being used to help them stress-test the B.net account system and site, there are no keys coming for us until they're satisfied that some unknown condition is met, as far as I'm concerned.

If you sat here refreshing your account all day like I did then you're a patsy and this is simply how Blizzard does things nowadays. You can either be forthright and truthful OR you can be a large, successful company--the two do not go together.

Yeah, please, if anyone is going to spam "OMFG I GOT MY BETA KEY" at least explain if it's opt-in or from the pre-registered Blizzcon keys.
