I still can't believe 150 ppl self-nominated themselves

I can't believe only 150 ppl self-nominated themselves. I expected at least 500!
Also, just to clarify, is the beta keys only for windows because I only have macs and I don't buy windows because of their many bugs and some personal reasons.

No SC2 Beta for Macs yet AFAIK.

****. O well, I guess u can cross me off then =(. I hate blizzard some times...

even if it was a popularity contest, it did allow to nominate oneself (and who can nominate those who have 1 post, but themselves), but it got transformed into something else. Do you want big pie and a curse or no pie and a blessing?

@FFA:
no, no Mac keys yet, though I do recall rumours of a MAC Beta arriving 'sometime in April'. I don't think there's been much definate news of that yet though

Kev

edit: yeah, I believe it was discussed in a q&a, and reported on here in March:

6. If there are too many people still on the list after 48 hours, nobody gets any.



Haha this is brilliant.. its a shame it wont' work on a bunch of selfish nerds. Then again if you nominate yourself despite not doing anything noteworthy for the community you probably don't deserve a key in the first place. So it doesn't really matter anyway.

Can I get some more clarification though? Could Hot-Bid please clarify whether its windows-only? I really want to make sure I don't have a chance still.

I RESCIND MY SELF-NOMINATION.

Just woke up and saw this. I self-nominated rather early (I think), and did so before I realized it'd get such a bad reaction from the TL community. I really want a beta key, but I'd rather be part of this community than try through this means to have a few more weeks of beta.

The conditions make it sound like its part of the Saw movie series selfishness vs. selflessness. Will the selfless get the key?

I already thought of that... keep lurking on TL.net lol...


Your use of periods is incorrect and it confuses me. In order for me to properly respond I need clarification on exactly what you just said.

He copied my idea that I posted earlier and reposted it as a brand new invention.


Oh, then credit goes to you sir! If there were liquibet points available for this, I'd bet on your idea.

No sir, I'll hand those over to you. Honestly you deserve them more, you put your sweat and blood into the task of comming up with such an idea.

I finally got what this thread is all about. It's about learning to give and take amongst people you come across everyday. This thread will teach you the meaning of love and respect to one and another.

Brb going to the bathroom for a quickie.

This thread is about slaves who accept their master they want you to admit that you are a selfish oneposter greedy lurker and you don't deserve a key so if you do they feel better because you agree with them. If you cross out your name maybe you got more chances but less dignity. How can't you see that admins behaviour here is wrong ?First they say its ok if you nominate yourself and then this sadistic game.Why zero criticism to them after so much posts ?

How do you have less dignity for crossing out your name? We said it was fine to self nominate yourself if you felt deserving, and plenty of people did that. Then more people attacked them for that. So we're just providing another option to correct a public perception of oneself. I don't see what's sadistic about that, since you aren't really hurting yourself. Nobody is losing anything they had. Everyone that has crossed out their name has gotten praise or respect.

By doing this thread i think you accept the opinion of the people who said that. Someone change his mind and admit that he is greedy and stealer from someone who deserves the key despite the disgusting method which used against him is fool. Im not hurt. I don't have something personal with you. Some contests make me sick. I want TL s contest to be serious and respectful.

I never once said I believed these people to be selfish, I think you are just projecting this feeling onto the list from the mob of people who hated on them. We are simply giving the people who self-nominated a very public way of "redeeming" themselves. Whether or not the stigma was correct in the first place, that I cannot say.


Hot_Bid professional all the way.

Nah, there have already been far more people withdraw their self-nominations than there are keys to give out, and besides, it would be wholly illogical. If your end goal is to reward selflessness, why not give the keys to those who nominated others in the first place?

Kev

It is a shame though, I was actually beginning to look forward to embarassing myself on a TL.net stream
