Ah, sorry for the confusion. What we did was essentially "reserve" the future keys we would get for the 2nd wave contests, and earmarked them for cakes 4-10. But we still have to actually wait for wave 2 :/

So you are saying if the 2nd wave was to come next week Blizzard still does not have our information since they never gave you the rights to a 2nd contest?
good luck have fun!

I think he is saying that we used the contest keys that we would've gotten for second wave contests, for our first wave contests. And thus you have to wait for second wave.
Afaik, it is all legit and was blizzard that offered us the idea of using our second wave keys for contests.

Guys it appears that the 2nd wave has started and a email today from Blizzard told me that they do not have me on file anywhere and forwarded me once again to another department in Blizzard.

I also spoke to FA who confirmed that they have not submitted our stuff as nobody from Blizzard has given them heads up on it. It seems like 4-10 might be forgotten
This is painful! painful

Edit: If anybody from 4-10 gets any new info please let me know!
good luck have fun!

Appears I was just finally enlightened on this topic. I will do my best to explain to my understanding.

Places 4-10 are winners of a 2nd wave of contests allowed by Blizzard for TeamLiquid to host. TeamLiquid never received permission from Blizzard to do this yet and if they do they will just forward their emails to Blizzard and we will get our keys. When this will happen is not known at all or if it will ever happen I guess is the better question..

We have only had 1 wave of contests and those winners received their keys respectfully on the first wave. The 2nd wave of contests has never happened and if it happens we might be invited sometime down the road, but that does not mean it will happen in the 2nd wave of beta keys. Since it looks like the 2nd wave has already started it is almost safe to say that it won't happen anytime soon.

I'd like to thank the TL staff for giving us the right to those keys if they ever become available. I also have to say that I am really disappointed in Blizzard atm and it looks like our opportunity to play the game will come only when the game comes, and it really sucks that I expected to be in the early beta since last summer only to have my heart broke in the last minute
good luck have fun!

yes, FA told me that they received an email from blizzard and ask for contact info... (that's what they did for the first wave winners).

But.. its there any winner playing right now?? would be very nice if they write their experience here, i really admire the work and effort put in the cake contest, and will be nice if all of us meet one day for play.

Me and pape are very frustrated, a email from blizzard asking for patience would be fine. Or more support from staff and first wave winners... i dont want to feel alone in this.
Beat after beat i will become stronger.

I wonder if anyone here can help me.

Last year, I participated in the trivia contest on SCLegacy, then I received an email from them telling me I had won a SC2 Beta key. Of course I was extremely happy and very lucky, it was one of the first beta contests out there.

A few weeks ago, beta had started, of course I was checking my emails and b.net account every 4.5 seconds like everyone else. Since then, I received no news from Blizzard or SCL about the key or the contest.

Last week, I wrote to the SCL staff and to contest@blizzard.com to know what happened with the key, with the link to the actual contest, and I still have received no answer to my question from either. I contacted support@blizzard.com, they told me all I could do was to wait until contest@blizzard.com answers me, but one week already seems like a ridiculous amount of time to answer the simple question : ''well, so what happened to my beta key?''.

At this point, I don't get it, I just feel like I got screwed up.

I can confirm that all the ironman, cake and guide winners are playing the beta... (or at least, the ones I have heard from are playing and the ones I haven't heard from I assume are playing).

Spare a thought for those of us who have no really chance of getting a beta key at all (except through godly luck in opt-ins)
