Hey TL, I’d like you to watch me stream as much Guild Wars 2 as possible this beta weekend. I will be streaming from around the time the Beta Weekend begins to around the time it ends, with very few breaks in between.
A little bit about me and my stream: I am a former World of Warcraft PvPer, getting several Gladiator and Grand Marshal titles (Vanilla and Cataclysm) so I would like to think that I know my way around MMO PvP, and can showcase some pretty high level play. I will be mostly playing Structured PvP, starting with the Elementalist class to test the new Conquest map, and then switching to other classes. Interacting with viewers is important to me, so of course viewers will have an input on what I do; I will be glad to play a certain class, or do specific things if people request it.
To sweeten the deal, I will be holding a contest and giving away several Digital Editions of Guild Wars 2 ($59.99 USD) out of my own pocket. Here is what you have to do to be considered:
1. Follow my twitter, and send me a tweet telling me what server I should roll on for release and why (I am a competitive PvPer looking for likeminded, skilled players to join at release, so keep this in mind when posting). Make sure to tell me your twitch name if it is different from your twitter name in your post. Also, I will probably be giving away a copy to the tweet I like the most at the end of the Beta Weekend, so try to make these tweets informative; 1 tweet per person please.
2. Follow my stream, and watch throughout the weekend. At various points in time I will use randomly select a tweet to award a copy to. If you’ve done the above, and are in my stream chat at the time I draw your name, you claim your Digital Edition of Guild Wars 2. I want to encourage people to watch (or at least listen, if you’re playing yourself), so if you’re not there to claim your prize, I will draw another random tweet. Of course, I will give people time to answer on twitter or in stream chat, and will tweet the winner.
So to anyone who doesn’t have a copy yet, or those people that have friends interested, please check out my stream this weekend. I understand a lot of people will be playing, but if you feel like you need a break, want to watch while eating, or just listen while you play, tune in! If you’re interested and would like to know more about who I am, check out my previous broadcasts on my stream or read up on my blog, where I discuss my thoughts on Guild Wars 2 so far as well as builds and anything else that I think up.
Let me know if you have any questions or comments, I'll be checking this thread every couple of hours. Thanks!

Not to look a gift horse in the mouth or anything, but how do people that don't have the game (and thus would be interested in aforementioned giveaway) make insightful comments about PvP and which server you should roll on?
I'd probably watch because I've been getting an MMO itch lately due to me having a lot of free time over the next couple months, but I don't know much about the game seeing as I never played the beta.

I sent you a tweet. Followed you on twitter and twitch. Did the notifications on twitter.
I never played GW and having spent $120 on D3 for myself and my mother an account, I'm kinda shy about paying for another game so soon. http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=336890 is my blog posts about doing the D3 thing.
I don't like the idea of pre-ordering then asking for a refund before the game releases as I always seem to like games I get to play Betas of and most likely wouldn't cancel the pre-order. I liked D3 a lot until recently and while I still play it, mom doesn't.
Anyways... I will watch as much as I can. Would suck to miss hearing your name called as winner. Perhaps you can also tweet the winner?
Thanks for the opportunity to win.

If you were interested in doing some duo / team pvp and wanted a partner I'm down. Also an ex WoW player (Gladiator/Rank1) and I'll likely be playing thief.
Send me a PM with contact information (AIM/MSN) if you want to team up.

I understand what you mean. I'm not expecting any super-detailed analysis, it is a twitter post after all. I just want people to put at least some thought, research, anything into it really... and not just post "HEY MAN GO HERE CUZ NAME IS COOL" and expect to be rewarded.

Feel free to check out my blog, I've written my thoughts on the beta so far, the PvP is great. I'll be trying to commentate and answer questions in chat during the stream. I haven't played all the professions extensively in PvP yet, so I might just end up going through each one and playing it for a while. It will be a learning experience for us both  .

Updated the OP to say this, but yeah, its not going to be like a 10 second window or anything. I'm going to give people time to tweet or talk to me in twitch chat to claim their prize, and I'll definitely tweet winners. I just don't want people signing up and then ignoring the stream for the whole weekend, hoping to see a key in their inbox on monday or something.
