I probably don't deserve a key as some of these other people...and hopefully they will get a key. I am satisfied with iccup for now D:
You can cross me off the list, thanks for the offer

Sharing keys is against Blizzard's rules. Doesn't even remotely make sense for TL to do something blatantly out of line according to the company providing them with the keys.

Not to mention every thing else that's impractical with sharing keys.


Oh just kidding. I didn't know it was against Blizzard's rules. I probably should've guessed it though.

Btw: None of them will get any keys because NO WAY are there that many selfless people from THIS group.

Let's say we can look into the future and we know that by nominating ourselves, we would win a key. It's as good as getting a beta invite from blizzard for doing jack shit. You don't see the latter person giving away their key, do you? Why should the person who nominated themselves step down? Stepping down is like giving up a beta key. The people nominating themselves as as selfish as the people who opted in and used their keys for their own play instead of giving it to someone more deserving. Oh, I'm sorry. People who got beta keys from blizzard and used it for themselves aren't selfish, they're lucky.


Hey

You can be as bitter as you want. But a thread asking for nominations for people that deserve a beta key resulting in 151 people with MOSTLY <50 posts nominating themselves is friggin hilarious. You can get angry at the cosmos for everyone who went through blizzard and was selfish enough to use the beta key they got on themselves.. that's fine if you wanna do that.

I'ma sit here and watch this unfold!

Lol, I'm not angry. I just don't think the people calling these guys out are any less selfish on the whole. General statement, not targetting you. Hypocrisy irritates me.

I definately still want a key. We were told we could self nominate and I want one lol so I did. Props to those who are being selfless but I'm gunna stand up and say I still want a key. I wrote in my blog about why I think I'm a worthy member of the community in my blog just before this was announced, cause (lol) I misinterpreted a different thread, and then thought afterwards it was stupid enough to leave up for a lol.

So yeah straight up, I'd love a key and if anyone feels like supporting my candidacy (lol again), that would be awesome!

edit: After looking through the thread a bit, if people respond and there are no calls for support for me to get a key I'll happily step down, I'm just sayin I want one kkthx

i don't feel anything wrong aboutself nominating myself becuase i know that i want to play SC2B something like 12 hours a day unlike some ppl who might get a beta key and play 5-10 games a day.

lol, this thread is great. Just out of curiosity, what was the rationale behind allowing self-nominations? I mean the probablity of some hard working individual who dedicates his time to the community and is not nominated is much lower than....well this, which is guaranteed to happen the second self-nominatons are allowed...


On second thought, if self nominations were not allowed, this comedy goldmine would never have happened, kudos to the staff for their amazing foresight.

To be quite frank, things would probably be more fair if everyone with <50 posts was auto-crossed off the list. There's certainly lots of them who won't even read this until Monday, and they don't have this sense of solidarity towards TL which would make them regret it if noone got a key. Also, there was already a wave of keys given to deserving new posters.

I believe that, upon reaching the correct amount, the people who crossed over their names will get the keys instead. That would be the truly epic thing to do.

So yeah, please put my name in the list and cross it over.

i feel the same way (one of reasons why i took back my nomination)
i am a member of another site, for 4 years (not going to say) that had some beta key giveaways and all the keys went to fake duplicate accounts made that day for the competition
i was dissapointed that the real community (not just myself) did not get anything back for the time they put in, so i finally signed up here
so yes i totally agree with you

This is why the people who desires to get their names crossed over will get the keys. Proves that they are actually real accounts that are active.

No, I don't have any source on this. I bring my epic theories to the table.

So you're not removing yourself out of selflessness, but out of a metagame hunch? You stay classy San Diego.
You do it to yourself. Just you. You and no one else.

Well, if I'm wrong it's out of selflessness.

It's like having one's cake and eat it too.

I really can't see all the <50 posters opting-out. In the end, the selfless and deserving ones aren't going to get keys while some of the <50 posters are going to get their key and leave. Realistically, none of the <50 posters are probably going to even see this thread before the deadline and nobody from here will get the key.

I'll leave once I know it means I'm helping someone more deserving than me get the key. The truth is, I want a key just as much as you do. That's why we're both still on the list.

Is 48 hours enough? What if some people don't see the thread?
But why?
