I read somewhere that this was pretty disorganized and a lot of people who won still hadn't gotten a key as much as a week later. It was just one of the comments in a reddit post about the contest so take this info with a grain of salt...
|
Well they were having problems since Blizzard was requiring a Bnet account email. It is disorganized but I think it'll work, they wrote 2 articles about it.
|
its not disorganized, its just not a starcraft 2 fansite so they don't actually get keys. Whenever blizz sends out a new wave, they send out keys associated with your cvg email.
I won one on day 3(wednesday 13th), still no key. But I won on my first try, so everyone looking for a beta key this is your chance (besides storm drop keys)
|
rofl i won too but i didnt get the key yet.
|
|
day 4 is the last day? cause it's says that competition is closed
|
|
are their any open competiton atms?

doesnt seem like it, at least not on that website
|
Where's the link to #5 (the competition, not the winners)? I searched a lot for it but never found it.
Edit: Found it now; out in the middle of nowhere. Would be great if someone could figure out where the new ones do pop up.
|
just got my key guys!!!11!!
|
I apparently won and got a key. I already had a key though, was entering trying to win one for my sister and brother-in-law. They are going to be so stoked. I'm really happy I was able to get a key for them :D
|
QQ, still nothing there for me
|
can i register this to a diff acc other than the one i registered? (it is bnet compatible) though i'd like to give it to a friend
|

(it is bnet compatible) though i'd like to give it to a friend The key will be given to the b.net account with the same e-mail as you used to register on their site. If there isn't a b.net account with that e-mail you'll have to create one.
|
so where's the link to day5?
|
Anyone know when is the next contest? Read a tweet saying something about Monday, but not really sure about that.

could you post the link please? cant find it and i'm pretty sure i'm not alone searching for it

I can attest that this is the best contest around -- much better than Facebook. I just won a key today! I haven't received the email with the key yet, but Terrakin said he got his, so I'll trust mine is on the way.
A tip to improve your odds: you can use multiple email addresses to make multiple bnet accounts. Activate the 10-day WoW trial and opt into the beta. You can then use these multiple email accounts to enter the CVG contest multiple times each day. I only made two accounts, and got lucky with the 2nd ("extra") account -- meanwhile my trusty "real" bnet account with all my blizz games still won't have a key, but whatever.
Normally I wouldn't share this tip, but I feel like TL posters deserve keys more than most, and won't be scalping them.
|
Is there a competition for today? It's a real nightmare navigating that website XD

Day #5 still eludes me, as do the possible day #7 which I think should be going up today.
Commentors on their site seem to think that there won't be any new winners during the week-end
|
|
don't worry dhardisty, if you won today expect 3-5 days of waiting, definitely a real (easy) contest.
|
Does 12pm come after after 11:59am? If so there probably won't be any contest today as all other contests have gone up around noon European time, which is long gone.
|
*Edit* Nevermind, the post above answers my question.

Thanks again Terrakin, for sharing this contest on TL in the first place! Really saved my sanity.

ive been entering since day 4 and didnt getone yet, hopefully i'll be one of the lucky winners

Jeez I cant even find where you enter the drawing, their website is a mess. Anyone know where to go?

I WON yesterday's contest! I hope I don't have to wait too long b4 blizz emails me. Hope PCGamer isn't EU only as someone mentioned in an earlier post; that would be devastating.

Beta keys are not restricted by region, so congratulations.
|
There site is damn retarded i cant find a think on it. Anyone know where is the last competition ?
|
I'm pretty sure the location you enter into your bnet account will be your server.
|
Thank you SOOO much whoever posted this back in the 'facebook thread'. I won on my second try in the day #5 batch.
The competition rotates across the 3 sites CVG, PCzone, PCGamer, in that order. As the OP said, it should be on CVG today but I can't find it.
Given the number of winners in this thread already, seems this is your best shot at a key. Good luck people!
|
Wow this looks promising. Thanks for posting!
|
Yeah I cant find where to enter the contest?
|
Any luck finding the new competition ?

One of the Twitter feeds says the next competition will be on Monday, hopefully there will be another before then.

Holy crap, My name is on the list!

I can't for the life of me find day 7 (friday the 16th) -- but here's what I've been doing instead of watching Twitter: watch their "all content" RSS feed here:
http://rss.computerandvideogames.com/c/674/f/8604/index.rss
...or better yet, I do a Google search for "site:www.computerandvideogames.com starcraft key" and limit the results to the past 24 hours. The google way has worked fine for days 3 through 6.
|
The site is a mess, that way is hard to find stuff. I think monday will be the next contest. Not sure on that.
|
|
Good to know. Lets hope we get lucky.
|

seems to be the easiest way, ty for that !
So afaik, no contest on Sunday, the next contest will be on Monday - am i right ? ;>

I have to thank the one who mentioned about this CVG giveaway in facebook thread.
I have found all latest competition articles by using "the best of CVG" window on the rights side on each site (cvg, zone, gamer). When choosing "latest content" and "articles" it usually is there if they have already posted it for the day. Competition article is posted in somewhere around 13 AM (GMT) or generally in afternoon for GMT timezone.
There wasn't competition on friday as far as I know, but as it has been already mentioned, next one is on monday. One of the earlier competition posts also mentioned that they will be continuing to give 100 a day until 23rd. That would imply that there's still 500 left.
Just trying to help others by summarizing, since I've been bit frustrated to find any info about these giveaways
Good luck to you all and most importantly to me!
|
I'd like to thank OP for shedding some info on probably the most fair third party giveaway. Facebook giveaways just don't cut it.
|
Any new ones up? I can't seem to find anything in the works atm.
EDIT: Just read a few posts up, hoping for monday then!
|
Did CVG changed their Blog? Can't find anything about the prevous beta key give aways there... Nothing new on twitter also.
|
Did some one find the competition link for today ?
|
I dunno, can't find anything either.
|
Still waiting for my damn key from day 5 haha. Also, new comp isn't up yet I guess.
|
i... neeed... beta....
and the site is super messy. i can't find the new competition either.
|
The guy that made that site need to be killed. =))

TL received a batch of keys recently, there's been a lot of noise about the entertaining method they used to give out a few of them.

Well, now it says they'll host the competition after lunch. I hope it'll last at least a couple of hours, since I'll be out for 3hrs.

There's Monday's competition.

yea it's been like that during all of the contests. but honestly most of the lotteries and stuff on tv are like that too... at least in germany. if they give away a car or smth like that during a soccer-broadcast the questions - or the given answers to be more specific - are ridiculous almost every time.
|
Anyone know how long these competitions last? When will it be closed?
|
How long do they allow entries for?
*Edit* What he said.
|
edit hmm no details of where they post that list, i saw it before a huge list of winners.

Sweet I entered the competition. Quick question, does this thing run daily until the 23rd? I remember reading something about it once but the site is such a mess that I can't find it again.

thanks for the heads up mate

do these keys worth for the north american (USA) beta ?
|
theres another compeititon right now
|
It pains me that sites like this get hundreds of keys and TL only got 50........... =(
|
God... easy question for anyone with any kind of knowledge of the internets, I hope I made it in time...
|
Thanks for the head up. Appreciate it.

Been trying to get in this forever now. But never get a key.. I fear many people sign up with many diffrent accounts and such to get a higher chance, so lame :-(

I hope that people who already got a key, dont acually enter the contest to get another oen to get into another region or something -.- That would frustrate me so much
|
A lot of people have posted saying they won a key, but they did not receive it. Can anyone confirm this site is legit and they have keys to give out?

Also doubting the legitimacy.

Well I received my beta key because my friend won Day #3 key but didn't actually wanna play and decided to give it to me
It's Blizzard that emails the winner with a short guide on how to get it all working

They are not giving out beta keys, the winners are sent to Blizzard who will then give out the keys. The process takes some time, since Blizzard has a lot of stuff to do, and therefore people will have to wait - which makes them whine.

are the keys even sent out yet? i entered there too but there was never a newspost or something that the keys were sent out.

Yes, I won one. Still hasn't come yet, but it's supposed to take a few days.
I'm in the same boat though, my exams start in 2 weeks. I won't even get a chance to use it. I've just come back from a month off as well :'(
|
Since I've seen so many posts about people not getting keys and such. I figured I would give some insight. For those of you in the past who have ever e-mailed blizzard you will already know this, so you can skip this post if you want.
When you have a problem with blizzard and you e-mail them it takes up to a full 7 days. No less, unless your lucky. So just take it as if you had e-mailed them with a problem and are waiting for they're return e-mails, I am sure that priority atm is strictly calls first, e-mails for support second, then whatever else third. Lastly these new competitions for free beta keys, so just be patient.
On a side note: Anyone from previous competitions through CVG know how long it takes until they posted the list of winners last times?

I wish they didn't posted the article containing the answer to the question, would have improved my chances cause i knew the answer already ;/

It only says that you can't opt in without a game attached to the account - not that you can't use a key from a different source.

this is actually one of the worst websites i've seen in a really long time. it's impossible to find what you want and you just end up going in some convoluted circle.

Damn its pretty difficult to navigate around this website since the search function doesn't cover a lot of content. I'm pretty annoyed that this is in association with a magazine that I subscribe to, and yet I hadn't heard anything of it until I opened this thread. Thanks for posting

Their support is as bad as navigation on the site. It takes them more than 24 hours to randomly choose 100 people from the list? And on Friday they just forgot to have the event? Getting keys is not supposed to be easy heh? Blizzard made a good job in finding the worst site around with the worst support ever.

i don't care how bad the site is as long it gives me a beta key.

I just sent my answer, fingers crossed

the question was so fucking easy
GIVE ME A KEY DAMMIT

I managed to find some info about US/EU key question in that elaborate maze of a website.
Apparently it doesn't even matter what key you get, it automatically detects your region once you apply it in your bnet account. It was one of the comments tho so its not 100% certain.

Thanks for the link bro! Yet another contest to keep the small spark of hope alive.
|
I hope someone will post the link to the daily winners article, because I want to spend the minimum possible time on that site as possible..
|
yes. sure is hard finding anything.

Apparently it doesn't even matter what key you get, it automatically detects your region once you apply it in your bnet account. It was one of the comments tho so its not 100% certain.
This has been known for a long time.
|
As my internet is bitching on me right now, and I can not really navigate on this site, has anyone the list of winners from day 7? I would like to know if I had luck or not.
|
I've been checking every now and then, as far as I can tell they have not been posted yet.
|
I don't understand why they would post two contests at the same time. If I'm not mistaken, yesterday they were asking people who already won a key not to enter the contest again.
I just don't understand their logic, and I think their contests are so unorganized. You can create as many accounts as you want and there is no consequences, how fair is that ?
The contests on TL are a lot more fun.

The contests on TL are a lot more fun. Yes I agree to all of it, especially posting the Day-8 contest when Day-7 winners aren't even announced yet. Well, I will try in all places I can, so that I may get a key at some point, be it from TL (who are indeed having fun contests here) or from somewhere else.

You pretty much proved my point. This contest is unfair and unorganized.
But hey, Blizzard though it'd be a good idea to give 1k keys to them, so no problem.

I'm glad I saw this thread, completely forgot about this give-away, just checked the winners and saw I was one! Perfect timing to screw up my exam results too! Now to play the waiting game....
|
Any updates on yesterdays??
|
Thanks for posting info about this contest.
|
Anyone know where to look to see if you won a key?
|
The site, where the contest took place, will have a post in the same section. Something like: Day #x winners announced!
|
I'll never get a key
=/
damn
|
So I won on the 16th but I'm still waiting on a key to be sent =(... so others have reported they have received a key from this competition?
|
yea, if you look through this thread there are people who have received keys from this competition. Also the 4th contest people got their key on the 16th of april, which is (I think) 3 days after the contest ended.
|
link to the winners list PLOX!!
|
no winners list yet for yesterdays or todays contests goodcat1
|
They haven't been posting them until two days after the contest date, so anyone f5-ing CVG can relax until tomorrow.

LOL, that just makes the fact that they ask you to not apply if you've already won that much more entertaining. I wont know that ive won until I've already applied to anouther 2-3 contests.
|
Nice and easy, the way I like it.. I wonder how much more traffic this is driving to their website.. Companies like this should be paying blizzard for the gift of these keys for the additional advertising revenue they must be raking in..
|
I've read of people receiving it and people saying they haven't received theirs. Weird. I hope this is legit and us TLers can get lucky.
|
That site is a mess. It'd be funny if I won a key from that because there is absolutely no way I'm visiting that site ever again. Before Diablo 3 beta keys, of course.
|

That is not true. Every contest they had, the winners were posted on the next day, except for the first contest, which was a friday. In that case, the winners were posted on monday.

Won mine on the 3rd batch, still no key yet : /

The general consensus from reading the comments is that it takes about 3-5 days for blizzard to email you a key.
|
It seems that they still haven't even posted the winners from yesterday's contest despite the fact that today's question has been up for quite some time now. Fairly disorganized contest overall, but, hey, for a chance at getting a beta key, I sure ain't complainin'
|
They are still taking entries in today's competition, too (I managed to get my entry in, since I'm still keyless/laying Zerg Eggs), so there is still time!

Because the sites so compact it's hard to get around easily, although I suppose big fans who have been on it often would be used to it.

They haven't posted winners from yesterday's drawing yet. I guess we'll see!
|
Yeah these sites seem to be fashionably late with posting winners 3 or 4 days later.
|
They've normally been pretty decent about posting who the winners are, just slow in getting the keys to them. I've been periodically checking all day for the Day 7 winners, but by now I'm just going to check it tomorrow.
|
They just closed day #8's contest as well. still no keys.

They don't seem to be updating their "competitions" page at all. The only SC2 competitions on there are #4 and #7. How do you guys find the other ones?
EDIT: Ah, nevermind, didn't think of the other 2 links posted. It seems if you click on Competitions on the other two websites though, you'll go straight back to the CVG website, which kinda confused me. I missed #8

There is a little box on the right side with the title "// Related Content". There you'll find links to the most recent competitions (under "News"). But as far as I can see all competitions are closed now and everyone is waiting for the results.

Cheers. Yeah but they would be making daily contests like this until the 23rd, so we should see yet another competition coming up today on one of those three sites.

Nobody knows who won day 7 and they're having a day 9 contest right now. It will take time.

Answer is Glenn Stafford.

day #9 is usually a good day.... hope I'll get lucky

Thanks, saves me the trouble of scouring the websites constantly.

Anyway, good luck to anyone who participated!

I don't understand the question

Well I think you need more than that:
Derek Duke and Glenn Stafford composed the tracks in the menus and the in-game music, while Jason Hayes composed the music used in the cinematic cut scenes. Tracy W. Bush provided additional support in composing.
|
i think they're just looking for stafford, since he was the only guy mentioned in the interview that they provided a link to.
|
My friend was trying to win a key at that site. He entered the day 7 contest and as of this writing they still haven't revealed the winners. And because you can only enter one competition at a time, he missed out on day 8, and probably day 9 if the winners aren't announced soon.
I told him about getting a beta key at gamestop (you just have to pre-order the game and they will send you an invite). Much easier to get the key that way.
|
They don't want us to enter in multiple competitions if we have already won a key, which is fair enough. But how the hell are we not to if they don't update the competitions with the winners on time?
|
Hmm I won on the 16th day 4 or 5. Still no key, getting a bit worried. Hopefully is just due to the weekend, will let u know when it comes through...

Thanks for the insight! I didn't knew score is another word for music in films/games. Should have looked it up in the dictionary

Congratulations to all the day8 winners though, hope lots of tl.net members won.

Thats weird. I entered the day 7 one as well, and was also able to enter 8 and 9.

Damn still didn't manage to get a key

None of my 9 accounts won I wonder if they sniffed me out. If their 5-10% chance to win is correct I should sit on ~50% chance.

Finally a beta key contest that requires absolutely no talent or creativity. As someone who posseses exactly no talent or creativity, I'm a shoe-in!

I'm on the list of day #8 winners
Now just hope CVG/Blizzard is fairly quick with sending the key.

where are day 7 results? This web site really sucks...
|
Didnt get a Day 8 key. Heres to hoping for Day 7.

If geocities and myspace had a baby, it would still have better site navigation/layout than cvg.

Yea i can't find the winners of day 7, only the ones of day 8...

No luck with Day 8... still can't find Day 7's winners. Anyone know where they are?

I just saw a post in this thread about receiving a beta-key if you pre-order from gamestop so I went to their website and much to my surprise, it mentioned it there. I just pre-ordered 2 copies of the game as 2 was the limit per household.. I'm going to be pissed if I don't receive 2 beta keys lol, ones for me and the other for my brother. THE GOOD NEWS IS: I got 25% off my order (coupon code for 25% OFF orders over $100!) For all of you that haven't pre-ordered AND are looking for a beta key, this is a great deal. Use the coupon code: 25OFF at checkout of orders over $100 (perfect for those wanting 2 copies of the game). I'll post back as soon as I receive my beta keys. BTW, you have to pay tax, but shipping is free. I'm not sure if I receive the package on the day of the release or if they ship it out on the day (which would suck because its like 5-9 days for free shipping). Either way, I'm happy with 25% off and 2 beta keys.

The answer has already been posted anyway. Next time read the thread first please.
EDIT: ARGH some guy called madfacee or something got a key. I was so excited when I saw mad on the list...

I'm guessing since the #'s are on different parts of the website, different people are in charge of them? Is that why the winners from day 8 have been announced but day 7 still seems to have no winner list yet?

were is the logic in that...8 before 7 -_-
no win on 7 accounts BTW!!!
|
According to the the webpage, each of the three associated websites (CVG, PCgamer and PCzone) will be giving away 100 keys every day from now till Friday, April 23. So, now is the time to participate in their giveaways if you haven't already done so.
|
Yes! Many thanks for linking to the competitions each day, just saw my name in day's 8 winners :D
I did use only one account, maybe they are also not 100% retarded and check if one IP adress entered 5+ times in the competition ?

You'll probably be getting your gamestop key before as Blizzard takes forever to send the key to the winners of CVG contests.

Not to sound ungrateful or anything... but fuck it.
How the hell did such an incompetent site get a hold of so many keys?

yeah seriously.. browsing this site is a nightmare... I dont even find the day 9 contest maybe they want it like that Oo

2. If you've already won a beta key from us, please don't enter again, count your lucky stars and give everyone the same chance you had. How do we know if we have already won if you don't post the **cking results?

Someone who won at day#4:
"Did anyone win the key in Day#4 get the beta key from blizzard?Till now I have not received it yet..."
Sounds fishy. They obviously don't have the keys themselves, but I wonder what their agreement with blizzard is.

There's a real problem with this competition. Some people have received 2 keys for one account, some mutli-accounts won too. For those who play fairly, as always, we are screwed. Hard.
Best for EU is to wait for pre-ordering beta keys mania. Blah. Hurry up with those !
|
I'm such an awesome person.. why is this happening to me!?
Rite?
No win again. Sent an email to the site about the day 7 results but suprise suprise they havent gotten back to me in 48 hours..
|
didn't win again. T_T. will they have another day?
|
Are the people running this contest totally crazy? CVG? Do you even look at these lists? You gave the same guy 5 keys... I think it's a bit silly. Especially seeing that it seems to happen every single day.
See for yourselves:
zkala zkora1 Riddle Riddlet Riddlez Riddli Riddlo robbcorp26 robbcorp26 touchbug touchbug They must have edited the OP after this post (there are only 94 winners now) It also looks like it is possible to submit multiple applications from single account. THIS IS THE WORST COMPETION EVER FROM THE WORST SITE EVER.
I'm done with all this stupid beta key shit. See you guys when the game is released.
|
That's what you get for being honest on this kind of sites/competitions. I still haven't won a key despite applying for everything I could and there's no pre-order in the EU yet.
|
Got a response from CVG. I sent an email to their bugs department about the day 7 results, because it was the closest thing I could think of. Their response:
Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error.
What the zerg is this? I guess they're bug free now that they don't want to receive any reports. This site is a total joke.

So, searching for the Day 10 competition (which should be posted today) is going to be fun, since finding it is half the battle really.

Fuck it i will just wait for the game to be out. This is to retarded, I dont have 10h to make 100 acc for a beta key.
|
I'm surprised 100+ people actually manage to navigate the damn site to reach each competition.

Unfortunatelt that's not how it works. Once they see one of their acc's names on the list they can easly make a B.Net account on that e-mail. :/

That's **cking retarded. Never seen such a thing in my life. The "competition" is a joke and I hope Blizzard recognizes this and hands no keys out to those who make like 50 accs.

Edit: They're saying this now: "Just to reassure everyone, multiple winners are being weeded out, you only get to win one .. and near identical accounts will also win nada."

so did anyone find the day #10 yet?

@Seffers: Do you even care to look some posts above and actually read some posts of them??

This was posted in the comments by Johnh420 an admin on the site
Just to reassure everyone, multiple winners are being weeded out, you only get to win one .. and near identical accounts will also win nada.
Appreciate some people are disappointed, but don't worry if your name doesn't come up...
This w/e we'll be doing something a little different where your on screen skills will be tested for a chance to win the final 100 and any spares.
So let's see what day 10 brings, could be more fair and interesting!
|
No luck.. Don't you have to have at least one game per account to attach the beta or something?
|
Nope, you can do that with a WoW trial as well.
|
|
|
Your answer is correct.
ps: eat that, troll!
|
You are not mistaken (or we both are equally dumb )
|
|
lol I thought I accidentally double posted there for a second ^^'
|
No troll, just didn't want to write the same as you!
|
Is there no page after i press "Enter Competition" which says i took part of the competition or something like that? Its just like i refresh the page (and yeah im logged in :p )
|
Sure there is "a page". Just reading helps.
|
It says "You're entry has been recorded" or something like that
|
Very easy math, you just have to be careful when reading the question. 89 should indeed be the correct answer.
|
Took 4 trys to work...weird

89 in the BOX!, Doubt ill win anything thoe. Thx for doing the math, Dont want to strain the megabrain on offdays! :D

The last competition should be the 11th one, which would be tomorrow. Let's hope we all win by then.

it all comes down to good old luck

It comes down to how many accounts you make, rather.

Finally! I won day 9.
Have any winners from day 5 or later received keys yet?
|
Anybody here who won: How many accounts did you use?
They are boasting they can detect multiple accounts, must be magic.

i lefta semi nasty forum post about not seeing the day7 winners, hopefully that gets seen my an admin, i dont care if i get a key or not as long as they f'ing post the damn 7 winners, i say id ont care about the key cus my rudeness fi they see, might screw me for the key.

For some reason, today's contest is not showing up as submitted. I keep trying, but the submitted window doesn't show up. Anyone else having this problem?

They dont even allow you to make more then 7 accounts on 1 IP on a certain time interval, as was mentioned before in this thread.
So i do not say they are actualy looking for multiple accounts, but they should be able to detect it
Edit: Can anybody tell me how long after you won a key at this contest, you had a email from blizzard ? Wondering what the ETA is, so that maybe i should stop f5'ing my email.

It seems some people from day 5 still haven't gotten theirs. To be honest I reckon they're waiting for the whole contest to be over before sending all the keys, but who knows. At least you're "guaranteed" to get one eventually ^^.

How is it that day 9 winners have been revealed but day 7 not...?

won day 8 and still no news, i'll try to keep you posted guys. (I'll probably go pre-order at gamestop this weekend anyway, so no high hopes from CVG)

I have been waiting over a week for a key from this contest but no luck. I think I will just go to gamestop and pay 5$ for a key instead.

Well if you won one Blizz will eventually send you a key anyway so you could just wait and pray...

Day 5 winner, waiting for a week and still have not received the beta key. I'm beginning to lose hope...

Tough luck man, another loser here heh. Thanks for the link though. But there's always #10 and #11 man, don't give up just yet.

This is so dumb, Amazon won't send me a key, nor can I win any contests, nor can I get in via opt-in since day 1.. this is getting extremely annoying..

Still havent gotten my key from day 4...

No luck for me either - sux

these websites blow sooooooo hard!

Day 6 Winner (last thursday). 1 week has gone by and still no key. Went to gamestop yesterday and pre-ordered and got my key that way. Expect at least a week before you get your CVG key, IF you get it at all.
|
Yeah. This sucks. GS has crazy shipping fees (60$ ffs) and Amazon has this crazy ass US only rule on SC2 and there's no Beta in the european shops. Stupid world is stupid :/
|
Yes, it would seem that I am one of the lucky winners of day 7! Now if only I can get the key before release..
|
For some reason day 10s contest entry is screwed up. Ive done the calculating and im pretty dam sure my response is correct. Once i click enter competition im expecting the page to reload saying your entry is recorded and yet i return to the answer the question page as if i hadnt entered the competition yet. Odd.

500/2 = 250 +1000 = 1250 - 360 = 890 *8 = 8(890) /80 = 89
hope this helps.

I won on day 9 but i'm not sure how much hope i should have, has anyone ACTUALLY received their key from CVG?
|
where is the link for day 10 ?
|
|
have the winners of #10 been posted, and more importantly found by anyone?
|
So the first times I entered once and didn't win, while people with many accounts spoke of winning several keys. so I entered with 2 more accounts and now they say if you entered with more than one you will be disqualified.
Makes sense.. yet they already gave the people who did the same last week keys. If it weren't for sc2 beta I'd never touch these horrible websites. Although I do appreciate them giving away the keys =)

I guess the winners haven't been announced yet. Took them two whole days to announce the winners of day 7.

Day 9 was announced next day So i hope 10 will be the same )
|
|
Oh what a pleasant surprise. There will be a day 12 as well.
So 2 more competitions still up for grabs at this point!
|
So I won a key from day 7... however I get the feeling that's only half the battle.
|
what do u mean lazix? u got ure goal right?

Perhaps they'll give out all the keys when all the competitions are over did you think of that?

i've been following this competition from its first day, and i finally won on day #5. from all the comments i have read on their forums it seems that winners from the first 4 days of the competition received their keys last friday or earlier. However nobody from day #5 onwards has received anything yet

Let's hope so.
Unfortunately I haven't won a key yet, but the only thing that would piss me off more than winning nothing would be winning a key and not getting it.
But on the other hand - I can hardly imagine that a popular game magazine would arrange such a competition and then not giving out the prizes to the winners.

all three "sites" seems to be sharing part of their navigation content... the boxes on the right hand side. clicking on any of the Day#11 URL on any of the three sites go to the same CVG page...

awwww.... lost again... but gl to all other participants!

FUDGE! still didn't win! sigh... Bring on day 11 I guess...

OHH NOOOOO!! Still no key for me

no win... my heart cries a silent tear... *sob*

I will get the key in the next wave ...I can feel it

but be warned.... it's a REALLY hard question today

I won on day 10... finally... but seeing how people are not receiving those beta keys from CVG, i wont get my hopes up..
|
I won on day 6 (last thursday) its now been 8 days and no beta key.. no one from Day 6 has got a key yet from the post I've read on CVG. Was hoping to get my game on this weekend.. looks like it wont happen.

Wow thats realy sucks. U won and still dont have the beta key

I have entered for all 10 days without luck :/.
|
I won on day #8, now im wondering : Has anyone who won actually gotten their key ?
|
I think people who won on days 1-4 have gotten their keys, but noone from day 5 and on. And ofc I'm a day 5 winner
|
|
No we have to wait for blizzard to send our keys (Im a day 8 winner) and they sure take their time.
|
day 4 here, didnt get the key
|
Blizard has to send those keys so I think you will get it with the next opt-in wave

Anyone know when the next opt-in wave is ? :D

If you want in on the beta, just go to gamestop, lay down $5 on a pre-order and they print off a beta key ON YOUR RECEIPT. Amazon has some sort of similar deal as well. I wouldn't put much weight on CVG, and honestly, your going to buy the game anyway right? so its not like its money wasted..

If someone can confirm something like that work for EU... and for switzerland, then I might do that.
|
Yes, I would happily pre-order if it got me a beta key. In fact, one of the reasons I haven't pre-ordered so far is that I'm waiting to see which outlets will and will not offer beta keys as part of their package. Hopefully, it's just a matter of Europe being just a few days behind the US.
In the meantime: another blow out on the CVG competition
|
who will be the first to spot the page with the #11 winners?

If I can find it I will post it right away!

No European company has such a deal and if we pre-order an American copy of the game we might not be able to play on the European server when the final release comes. you can just download the eu version from you b.net account. i preordered at gamestop and got my key. if the us version wont be able to connect to eu, i'll just dl the eu version. The problem is if it's the cd-key that determines what server you can log onto.
well, the beta keys aren't region specific, the only thing that matters is the region of your b.net account. i doubt, that they will change that for the retail game.
|
I actually managed to win a key from the last competition but from the comments above I'm not too sure my chances of receiving a key are that good. So could anyone that actually got a key from this competition tell me how long it took for blizzard to send the key?
|
It seems like winners from competition #5 and later didn't get any keys yet.
|
hello just to notice :
i'am a day8 winner and still no key at my mailbox and bnet account.
I contacted blizzard account support by mail to see what is wrong and maybe speed a little the sending..
I will tell if i have any news guys.
Any Day8 winner in beta now ?
|
i won at day 8 aswell, no key though
|
Day #10 winner here. I can't believe that from day 5 onwards nobody got a key. Maybe there will be no more beta keys or the people in Blizzard are just too lazy.Anyway i dont think they will send the keys during the weekend.
|
It's customary to post a link when referring to a page on that site.
|
|
so no1 has day 11 winners yet?
|
You guys that have won, have you checked your battle.net account? I have _heard_, not seen for myself, that you don't get an email with a key, they just add the beta to your account.
|
I got nothing but i'm a day 10 winner.. according to some comments on the CVG website, it seems some day 6 winners are getting something, and the admin on the site said they are weeding out people with multiple accounts.
And in one of the competition descriptions it says they hand the information over to blizzard, but the big question is if its CVG/PC Zone being lazy or the blizzard people..
|
Maybe they're not lazy, they just can't find the links to their own winner's list in that mess and hence haven't sent blizzard the emails >

it wouldn't surprise me at all o_O
|
Well they said they were going to detect "cheaters", so weeding out people with multiple accounts could be a reason why it takes them so long.
EDIT: Day 10 winner!
|
do they send u an email when u win a key or do i have to check the lists myself .... the lists are kinda hard to find -.-
|
Have anyone found day 11 winners? I can't find it anywhere :S

I've been looking around but I don't know if they've even posted them yet. There's supposedly a twitter you can follow. All I know is that day 11 is hosted by PCGamer this time.
|
ITs na invite, not a key.
|
|
wow i have really shitty luck...
|
still don't see the #11 winners there, should they be?

Yea its not up yet, they usually tweet with links to the page when they're up.
|
Still no link for day #11 winners ?
|
Day #11 winners will probably be up on Monday. They don't seem to do this stuff on weekends.

Did anyone actually get a key? It seems like only a few gets a key.
|
anyone who won after day #4 didnt get any key yet.
|
Day 9 winner here. I had no idea I even won until I decided to scan through the winner lists. No e-mails or anything.
|
It takes awhile. Apparently giving out contest keys isn't high on Blizzard's priority list
|
|
it seems so, probably we have to wait till monday. I doubt they work sundays
|
Won at Day 5, thats 10 days ago now... I'm enraged no key... this competition is just a bluff
|
Could everyone please stop complaining about not receiving a winning key. Their procedure is to forward the winners to blizzard. They have no control over how fast blizzard sends out the keys.
So relax, Play some SC1 or watch some SC2 videos and before you know it your inbox will be 1 beta key fuller.
|
|
there was nowhere I could find a way to enter my details
|
I know exactly where you guys are coming from, and ill wait with patience, but its hard to tell people who've been waiting for almost 2 weeks to shut up and wait.
|
so no day 11 winners notification yet?
|
Dont think day 11 winners are needed.. they will receive their keys after the beta closed ... shame on blizz
|
It's a sunday, they're not working most likely. Read the last few posts before bumping this.

i contacted blizzard by mail and they said to contact the owner of the contest site.. great... :/
Some people here are waiting for2 weeks now.. That is why we whine :/
(sorry for my english)
|
I think what amy be happeneing is that CVG are waiting until Monday to announce the day 11 winners, then they will give Blizzard all the names, then we will have to wait another 3-4 days to recieve them. I'd say we will have to keep waiting until at least Wednesday.

For the people who did win a beta key in the contest. Did any of you receive your key?

Answer =
+ Show Spoiler +Warcraft's score is normally recorded in a chapel; literally a Gothic cathedral-type building with 47 foot ceilings. It helps create a very primitive, raw, dark sound. Starcraft was recorded in a very traditional film scoring stage - the one at Skywalker [Ranch, Los Angeles]. That resulted in a more traditional film score sound. It's subtle, but the purposeful impact of [those the environment] was very differen
|
so no news on day11 winners or anyone that won and receieved hes key jst another competitions?! this sounds kinda lame
|
Thx for the answer
|
11 days since I won a key ... still waiting but as the west coast does not wake up for another 5 hours or so I guess I am still waiting. Here's hoping monday is blizzard "oh yeah we got those 1000 or so who won beta keys, best to sent them NOW" days.

guys, Im sorry to you all that still havent got a key. But it dont makes it better with 10 posts /day about people saying that they havent got the key that they won. Post when you get a key or if you have mailed to blizzard or CVG or whatever.
|
If at least half of you who post here support that post it might get Blizzard attention. Otherwise you have to believe that someone mailed with someone and other crap. Here is topic on official forum, make it more visable so we might get official blue answer.

were the day 11 winners posted?

I just put Skywalker Ranch, Los Angeles.

Well we never know how picky they are, put I think they accept anything with either Skywalker Ranch, LA or Film scoring stage in it.
Anyone found the winner list of day 11 yet?

Did someone find the winners for day #11 ?

Any 1 can find the day 11 winner list ?

looks like every1 is obsessed with day 11 but cvg fail to deliever!

Day 11 is day 7 all over agian

still only winners from day 1 - 4 got their keys

Day 7 winner and no key here

I see you people don't give a damn about your key and prefer randomly whining about not getting it instead of actually doing something, otherwise I don't see a reason why nobody posted at that thread in blizzard forum yet.
You see, Blizz have said in one of the threads over there a week ago that they had problem flagging accounts for some competition making people wait for weeks for a key. For all you know, they may still have this problem with CVG and all you do is just sit on your asses waiting for it magically appear in your inbox. Think about it, do you deserve a key after that?
|
I posted on the threads at blizzard. What else can i do... Let's hope some other will do the same for blizz to take a note on this..
|
I get my key from EB games today so to hell with this...
|
This is all rather disappointing...
|
Disappointing? Its a fucking scam. I wish I would never had won on this shitty website, at least when I missed all the chances to win and/or lost the competitions i took part in it didnt give me that false hope/obsession to find my beta key i "just won" in my email inbox.

Other players now receive a second TAF mail with 2 keys and then blizz will tell they "dont have time" or anything else to send winner from 2 weeks ago a key... its so disgusting... and amazon.de now offers keys to from friday.. Thanks CVG for letting me pressing F5 tons of days for 2 weeks for nothing... Ordered on amazon now and will wait till friday... so angry

Wait...
Hello. Both CVG and 'very famous Italian website' are not a part of this Fansite promotion and unfortunetely there is nothing we can do for you, as we don't collaborate with sites, when it comes to these kinds of contests. You have to go to the contest organizators in this case. Sorry Do I understand this correctly, and basically it's saying Blizzard does not cooperate with CVG, so CVG has been lying about it being a Blizzard supported contest and it's most likely a scam?
|
|
But some people got key from CVG contest, didn't they ? Or they simply promised more keys than they could deliver ?
|
This 100key/day was just a lie and blizzard don't give a step :/ GREAT ... i sincerly hope the release will not be too far. I m tired of all these contest :/ should i say unorganisez and fake contest ? >_<
|
This is very disapointing, I didnt that a big site like CVG would lie on something like that...
|
The winners from day 1-4 got their key.

But you get so many opportunities to receive one.(Facebook, pre-order, etc..)

I believe they mean that Blizzard does not regulate the hand out of keys? rather than not being involved entirely
|
|
|
How were people checking they recieved keys when they won to know they arent being sent?? is a physical key sent or does the b.net account with the same email just gain access??

Chances are that you will never receive any key with this competition.

[I'm so sleepy didnt noticed that link to day's 11 winners waas already posted : EDITED]
still no day 12 winners, maybe there i am

Read first than ask it was said on this thread and on their's site like 3-5 times: blizzard will sand you e-mail, someday.
|
I think you have to wait patiently and hope for the best. So far there haven't been a lot of reports of people actually receiving any keys from this contest.
|
It's been two weeks or more since day 5, 6, or 7, or whenever I won. Still no key.
|
OMG i'm on day 11's list. I can't believe it, after entering the contest 9 times i finally got it lol >.< Now just hope I get the key sometime this year... but it seems unlikely, seeing all the complaints.
|
A lot of game stores are handing out beta keys now with pre-orders. Entered the competition several times but since retailers are spamming ppl with keys here in Sweden (I got mine from a place called webhallen.se) I guess this competition has played out it's part (at least for me). If you are waiting for CVG/Blizzard to send you keys I would suggest that you instead go ask/check your local/national retail chains, it might be faster for you.
Good luck
|
|
It's pretty bad, I do think that blizzard will be sending the keys out though, it will just take time i guess. I doubt they would set up such a big scam, not a site like that at least.
If anyone was interested, there's a full list of the days and the latest winners here : http://mitarn.wordpress.com/2010/04/13/100-starcraft-ii-beta-keys-per-day-for-10-days/
Still waiting on day #12's winners. I will update that post the second they land. Lets hope for the best, lets hope the people start getting keys soon!
|
yeah hope after that they finaly give out the damn keys im tired of waiting btw thx for your blog mitarn kept me up to date :D
|
i dont think after that blizz response they will hand out keys to anymore cvg beta key winners
|
Cool, no problem at all! I am also just curious as to what's gonna happen with the CVG thing!
|
Seriously, what the hell is wrong with this contest. I emailed Blizzard and CVG about this but I have not gotten a response back.
|
forget about this fucking fake contest. Now i just wait for 11 june. i'am tired of "beta key"...
|
|
thanks for info.. just mailed... lets see if something happens before weekend... but its wayne, preordered it at amazon.de - hopefully they keep their word and will send them out tomorrow
|
Just mailed them, if I get any response will post here.
|
lets play the waiting game again :-)
|
Nice, I had given up all hope of getting my beta key I won 2 weeks back, lets see what happens. But as it seems the UK will have pre-order keys soon I am not too bothered now =D
|
If you can pre-order i see no need to wait. Since all will buy the game when it cams out.
|
Yay! I was takin part since Day #5 and I was finally lucky on Day #12. Just recieved 2 Keys and I felt like I had to cry and vomit because I got so excited .
|
Have you actually received the key, or are you just on the winner's list?

I recieved an EMail from "SC2betaGB" with the subject "StarCraft(r) II: Wings of Liberty(TM) Beta Test - Invite a Friend"
and inside I've found 2 valid beta keys. One I activated on my bnet acc, the other one I've sent to a friend of mine.
EDIT: oh yeah, I'm actually from Germany. And that CVG lottery was the only thing I took part in outside from Germany. Did actually not check the winner list yet.

|
Havent got my key yet, I have sent an email, still waiting... and hoping
|
Hahaha... thats what they do... they waited till Day 12 was over and sending now the keys in reverse order.. nice... two more weeks for day 5 winner - LOL
|
I sent an email to the address pcgamer@futurenet.co.uk and after a few hours I received an email "Invite friends" with two keys. Greetings
EDIT: I'm 8's day winner.

West coast don't wake up for another 4-5 hours but seems peeps are getting keys now.

I got a good feeling about today. It seems the keys are finally coming.

Day 10 winner. no key. T_T
|
No key for me yet =) was hoping as its bank holiday weekend.. ah well I'll get a key on Thursday due to my pre-order with game UK. Shame I wont be able to give away my CVG/PGC key if/when I get it as they are tied to Bnet accounts.
|
Day 12 winner after entering the competition for 5 days. I aint optimistic about getting a key though since theres quite the negative feedback about the competition..
|
The negative feedback should be about Blizzard, not about the competition.
Every website that gave away betas in this fashion is in this same position, being blamed when it's Blizzard who's not willing to activate the betas.
|
Blizz's customer service isn't particularly good on this...
|
@tzz - An email from CVG as to the delay would of been nice, they had the email address of the 1000 or so who won but did not get keys. An email would of put evey ones mind at rest but they choose to ignore us up to a few days ago, and only now admit there is a problem and are speaking to blizzard.
The competition was a mess being spread across 3 websites, damn hard to find the competitions each day and even harder to find the results which were often posted 2 or 3 days after the competition. It was a mess from start to finish.
Lets hope CVG learn from this and do better should they decide to give out D3 beta keys that they dont have.
|
supertino: it's not about giving keys they don't have. Blizzard contacts the website saying they have x betas (not keys) to give away and asks for a list of x Battle.net accounts. The website gives the betas away, collects the accounts and sends them to Blizzard, at which point there's NOTHING the website can do to know the status or speed up the process. It's entirely up to Blizzard to activate those accounts whenever they want.
I know because I'm in the same situation as the CVG guys and it's quite annoying receiving complains because it's taking Blizzard too long to activate those betas.
|
|
entered all 12 times and didnt win once. Meh.
|
@tzz - not to argue the point but with each competition people were posting they had not got their key and had been waiting a week or more, dont you think it would of been nice if CVG told the winners they are looking in to it? We don't care about the deal between CVG and blizzard, when we entered the competitions we were told "a few days" and we'll get a key.
Days 1-4 winners got a key within 48 hours so when day 5+ got nothing after a week or more I think its right we go to the source and ask what is going on and that is CVG.
All CVG had to do was COMMUNICATE with the winners - even now unless the winners go look at day #9 winners and read post #21 they dont even know to email CVG it chase the beta key. Crazy.
|
I actually entered 12 times as well. I also went around and looked for some more giveaways and entered in them, too. Didn't win a single time. Just my bad luck, I guess.
|
I entered, but can someone link me to the page that says who won? they seem to be skipping days in pczone's blog.
|

its not that there skipping days its that they only post results for the competitions they hosted. for example day 7 was by pc zone, so results were posted there day 11 was pcgamer i think, results posted there. day 12 was normal cvg and so on so forth. So just check each or their respective areas. =]
|
|
...
|
Gl guys... I didn't get a key from this but I just got one for K-Pop contest submission (and I could've gotten one from the >500 post giveaway if I saw it).
|
I cant find CVG's email only pcgamers anyone happen to know it?
|
Day 7 winner and I finally got my key from Blizzard, here's the email:
+ Show Spoiler +Jonnie Bryant here, UK PR Manager for Blizzard Entertainment. My sincere apologies for the delay in getting your beta key prize to you. I've been assured that there was a fresh push to rectify this over the weekend, but just to be sure... xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx
It's not a problem if you end up with multiple keys. I do hope this helps. All the best, Jonnie
So it looks like it was Blizzard's end after all.
|
I can confirm Lazix report. I got the same mail b (^_^) d
|
bah day 6 no mail =(
Oh well I got my pre-order key coming this thrusday YAY!
|
Well atleast some people are getting their keys, hope mine arrives today

My sincere apologies for the delay in getting your beta key prize to you. I've been assured that there was a fresh push to rectify this over the weekend, but just to be sure... xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx
It's not a problem if you end up with multiple keys. I do hope this helps. All the best, Jonnie
So it looks like it was Blizzard's end after all.

Oh god, I really did not want that piece of news. Now I'll start F5-ing my inbox again only to be disappointed again eventually :\

Man you wait all day for a bus and.... I didn't send them the mail before that either, haven't got it yet. But I don't care if I have to wait like 2 more days, it seems that they did give keys to people who won so I think I'll get mine soon.
EDIT: Just got mine now

Still haven't got mine

Is it only people sending them emails after the fact who are getting their keys? I was a day 6 winner and haven't heard anything yet...

The contest was a while ago, on CVG. I won on the 10th day the contest ran. CVG isn't doing anymore contests as far as I know, they are now just sending keys to the people that won a while ago.

Anyone else know of giveaways that are running right now? I'm currently participating in the IncGamers giveaway (since Day 1), still nothing.

This isn't true; I was a winner on day 7 but eventually got a key from Gamestop so I didn't bother sending an e-mail to them, and now today I received a key by e-mail.

If its from game.co.uk then the key won't come until tommorow I'm afraid. They said on their website they are being sent out May 6th. Hopefully Blizz will get you the key later today though!

but for pre-orders before the the beta key promotion was announced we get them on the 5th (today) yay!
.... Customers who have previously preordered before the launch of this promotion will receive BETA access keys on 5th May 2010.

I also got a key, winner from day #9! It seems that they are at last giving them out now.
