Um why isn't there a JonnyREcco and two Nightend winners?? The rules were as follows:

we will select 1 entry per player and award the winners each with a Heart Of The Swarm beta key!

I thought we follow the rules here on TL

Only 17 winners? Where is the 18th?

Some of these are really awesome (read: White-Ra) but for some of the other ones, I think I have seen more worthy winners in the thread. No matter, though. Congrats to everyone who won.
You mean I just write stuff here and other people can see it?

When seeing all the great cheerful contributions this selections feels completely random, except for some really good ones like the White-Ra or Ziktomini picture. Some of them are flat-out bad and uninspirational. Weird choices that aren't up the the usually high quality of TL.

If you would have won you would have gotten a PM 3 days ago or so, the winners were contacted via PM by Kenni to send their Account Data for blizzard to unlock their accounts for HotS-Beta Access.

So if you didnt get a PM u know you didnt won. The strange thing is i got a PM from Kennigit that i won and to send my Acc. Name etc, but i'M not mentioned in this Thread as a winner o.O (but there seem to be missing some because these aren't 18 Winners).

But i trust in TL-Staff, seems like a minor error/mistake, gonna go to bed now, its late ^^ thx for giving me the hots opportunity. <3 TL :-)

There isn't a winner listed for Thorzain either.
What was the winning cheerful for him?

Thank you Kennigit and TL staff, nice picks.

Unfortunately with so many great entries some fantastic cheerfuls had to miss out, i especially loved the babyknight one with the rock on the babies head and the stephano i see dead people one.

The seiplotoad one is hilarious (reference to retnotoad incase anyone didn't get it)

Gogo Grubby.

The 3rd wave went out earlier today; no luck here. How has everyone else fared?
Show me a completely smooth operation and I'll show you a cover up. Real boats rock.

Kennigit, can you PLEASE do the Reddit winners a favor and ask what's going on there? The contest was the exact same as here on TL, even the same dates. Not a single one has received anything.

http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/1084jz/hots_beta_invites_coming_out_now_for_the_public/

It's a little iffy seeing random people being lucky and getting "your" price while you sit for weeks wondering if there even is a price.

someone on reddit mentioned,

"Twitch have said their contest ends on the 24th, and the invitees will be in a wave on the 28th, which is why I suspect that'll be when the 'competition winners' wave will be."

Which unfortunately makes a lot of sense in blizzard-time ..... suck balls! but I doubt we will have any luck before next weekend.

the thing i dont get: why didnt they just hand out normal Keys like they always did o.O everything would have been fine and nobody would have complained + no bad publicity for both TL (for not handing out what they promised, even though its not their but blizzards fault) and BLizzard. A normal key activates stuff like this so much faster because u get it, can type it in and there you are playing the beta.

But nooo... they wanted to make the process very slow again and make people depent on some random guy sitting in the office and typing in thousands of accounts who they want to unlock. And once he typed them all in (once a week) he presses the magic unlock button and there you go beta invitees :-) this is so typical for Blizzard... but hey, be patient -> Soon (TM)

There are no "normal keys" and if you search for keys on ebay you know the exact reason why Blizzard is doing it this way.

So people sell beta keys on eBay.

big deal.

if someone wins a key in a contest and sells it, how is that a problem for anyone? it's not like the people who won keys on TL or at barcrafts were carefully selected by Blizzard to test their game.

Uhm, by saying "why didnt they just hand out normal Keys like they always did" i guess EVERYONE on the planet understands, that i already know there are no normal keys with HotS Beta and that this is exactly the reason WHY i complain. But thanks you doubled the essence of what i was saying, you really helped me understand my own sentence a bit better.

The other thing: Beta Keys being sold at eBay. To be honest with you, i mean why in the world would Blizzard care, if someone would sell a normal beta-key (which is a key like: QIEEQ-QWJQ-KJSJQK-LKSQ)? If you think about it, you can get that beta access on your starcraft account and then sell the whole account, kind of a package (SC2 + Beta Access). Why i say this is, because people actually do this... its the same thing as selling the Beta-Key seperated. And even IF someone sells a normal key (like it was before) who cares? The guy who buys the key will test the Beta anyway, he wouldn't spent the money if his plans were to not use it. And therefor Blizzard isn't losing anything. They dont lose the data they gain from the played matches because someone else fills this gap that is being created when the guy who receives the access just sells his beta-access...

it's a stupid argument to say they changed the way they hand out beta access to prevent people selling the access on eBay. Because as it is, it doesnt prevent guys from selling it at all. Like i already mentioned people sell Beta Access + SC2 accounts now.

It's never the end of the world, its just a beta key. But people worked for them and won them legit, and normally when you when anything digital its pretty instant... we all knew it wouldn't be instant but there is no logical reason why our less than 100 account wasn't just added to the 12.000+ accounts they invited at wave3? like there is no logistical / testing / any reason not to just add them. Holding them back without giving any information about competitions they started themselves is what gives people the bad taste.

I agree. TL should've put their foot down and said "no, we won't hold another promotion until you hand out the keys you promised" or something like that. I know they won't, but really.

Dude i don't know if you do it because of this new Beta-Contest where u must have 500 posts but you SPAM on every thread always making instant 3 posts following each other -.- no mod out there who can just temp ban him and stop this nonsense x_x he did the same on the Stephano Fanclub Thread, i'm sure many other Threads will follow as it seems he wants to collect mass nonsense posts xD

someone on reddit mentioned,

"Twitch have said their contest ends on the 24th, and the invitees will be in a wave on the 28th, which is why I suspect that'll be when the 'competition winners' wave will be."

Which unfortunately makes a lot of sense in blizzard-time ..... suck balls! but I doubt we will have any luck before next weekend.

Grats to all the winners!
Comparing BW with SCII is like comparing a beautiful three-master sailing ship with a modern battlecruiser. Both are beautiful in their own way, both perform the same task, but they are worlds apart in how they are built and how they are steered.

I got whitelisted by a Blizzard employee for a beta of a WoW expansion (using this same type of invite system), and it took like 3 waves for me to get the invite.

Was frustrating but I wouldn't be surprised if you had to wait another week.

So have any of these guys actually come on and say they have been invited in yet?

^^ Edit - Ah lol, didnt see the guy just above ask the same question

Either way, sucks for them, getting so excited and then being somewhat delayed in experiencing the beta.

I just got an e-mail that I WON the beta access in the Twitch.tv sweepstakes YAY
The e-mail states that I will receive the invite from Blizzard on this Friday, 28th September.
I should expect the same goes for the winners of other contests.

So happy for myself

Transkript:

"I just wanted to check in and say that we've received the list of players who won the Team Liquid's WCS Europe Finals Cheerful contest. We've already sent the accounts off for beta flagging, so each winner should be able to participate in the beta once the next wave of invites go out - potentially later this week.

Thanks for your patience!"

Seems like all the Contest WInners from around the world are packed together in this upcoming Beta-Wave (this Friday). I guess grats to all the winners and jeah, enjoy the Beta i'd say ;-)

That one deserves a beta key for sure. Good Luck getting a beta key in the future! You definitely deserve one in my book, as do many many other submissions, i'm sure.

Still not satisfied with Blizzard's response time in this, and I still believe they should receive some flak for letting so many people wait, but at least I've got mine now.

When it comes to stuff like this i always tend to check 50 times if i didn't send my e-mail misspelled, let's say one letter is missing. So that if i don't get what i was supposed to i get paranoid that i really misspelled it :-7
