Legion Beta Key Giveaways

[Deleted]

I received an email from Blizzard (thanks again for trolling me blizz!) with confirmation that I was in the giveaway.

Hmn, maybe their email server is a bit busy. I'll wait a bit to see if they send confirmation.

I can vouch for that, it actually went into spam for me.

Anyone know if Hotted sent his keys out yet? No communication about it on his Twitter.

I don´t know but i don´t think that he has time for it right now. According to his twitter he is on the flight to the Warcraft Premiere in LA ( and Berlin - LA is a long flight ) . But I would be glad if we hear from him about his giveaway.

Question: The 5200 keys of the official giveaway are all for the european regions or 5200 for each european region? (i mean 5200 for Russia, 5200 for France, 5200 for Spain...)

[Greypelt]

It's 5200 keys altogether by the official rules

That fucking moment when your not sub to wow and there are contests where u have to sub and your like who is sub to wow now a days i would only re sub for the pre patch then legion launch but to resub for a chance of a beta invite that kinda like bullshit

Oh boy, the harvesters will have a field day with this one.
Expect x00,000 new accounts created just to enter the giveaway. There is nothing in the contest rules saying newly created accounts aren't eligible.

'I have to actually play the love game to get a chance at beta access to the new expansion!? Madness, what do they think we can do, but game time with gold or something?!'

The worst thing about this is that botters start this behaviour, and if the rest of us want to have a chance at it, we're pretty much forced to do the same.

If it gets you a chance at entering beta greater than you have now must not really be a waste

hows it a greater chance it look like same chance for most giveaways like 0.0004% chance to win i would have better luck with towelliee's giveaway with like 0.04% chance to win and i'm talking about like big giveaway sites chances

[Maxweii]

On the day where 0 is suddenly greater than any positive number, you'll get why increasing your chances is increasing your chances no matter how small of a % it is.
You lose 100% of the contests you don't enter.

But its not worth it just not worth it no matter what i will wait for the next giveaway that they will do

Why the heck is blizz doing a giveaway instead of flagging more accounts??

I would say it's mostly done as indirect advertisement. As you see, pretty much all of the giveaways give you extra entries if you follow/subscribe to them on various sites. It's done to build those sites' audiences, therefore building Legion's visibility.

Read: social media spamming.

/shrug legion testing is something different to everyone. Gold is replaceable, but testing things out in Legion before live is a finite amount of time. Seems more valuable than some easily obtained gold to me

[mg0]

i guess but its just small chance for me and i don't want to make it a chore to get that gold back
