    There are legitimate 1 posters who may add to this community... but the majority are people/bots creating accounts to stuff their chances at winning.

    My exact feelings on the matter.

    And sadly I feel that those who have <10 posts come the end of the giveaway shouldn't be considered because it's obvious they don't intend to join the MMO-C community.

    Looks like I was pretty accurate in my estimate.

    We'll have about 11,000 contestants. Not know how many are duplicates, I'll assume that's the real number.

    With 500 keys, that presents about a 5% chance, or 1 out of every 22.

    Really pretty good odds, considering.
    No beta yet, I'll keep trying.

    Every day since the beginning or end of may? Im guessing somewhere around the 30th of may when the current beta contest started...
    Seeing as the account you're posting from was created May 2016 im assuming you are either talking out of your behind or this is another account
    you created to have a bigger chance of winning a beta key.

    If you don't win because of the "ballot stuffers", update us on how you feel.

    When are the contest winners announced for week 2?

  7. #3347
    I think the official wishpond blizzard giveaway is supposed to end tommorow or something aswell?

    It's unlikely that we will know, unless their name is sldftqewradsgh.

    Either way, 1:22 is better odds than anything I've entered up until now.

    They said through 2359 CEST June 7th, but they also said that they would handout the winners within a week, so may be a while unitl we see results.

    It was in the official rules.

    They also said If you reside in the States of North Dakota, Vermont, Connecticut or Maryland in the United States, or the Province of Quebec in Canada, you are not eligible to participate in this Contest.

    I don't know what that crap is all about.
    No beta yet, I'll keep trying.

Maybe because I love the lore based within each zone, that might just be me.
    This is how I am...as someone who mains playing a Shaman healer I decided to make a Demon Hunter. Lo and behold...I really freaking love playing Demon Hunter. I think that since my guild (which is slowly building up for Legion's release) has a sudden influx of people playing healers and tanks I'll be changing my main for the expansion to a Demon Hunter. For me I enjoy playing in the beta as I get to test the systems as well as test out what I want my main character to be. This is the first time I've really gotten to do it with WoW. Except for MoP I'm fairly beta-less usually.

    Chaud stated in the giveaway thread on this forum that they're doing manual work to remove people trying to cheat. Already 300-something DQ'd. Results sometime tomorrow maybe.

    I hope so! Need to get my teeth stuck into that beta

    I would like to wish you, and myself, all some very good luck today. I've got hopes for this giveaway and the 5.2k keys Blizzard is giving away within the next week via Wishpond. I probably won't concern myself with any further giveaways unless they're through WoWhead, MMO-Champion, or Blizzard.

    That being said, for anyone not up to date, the team is currently working towards filtering duplicate entries. The last time we heard from Chaud was that he was expecting "late today" (6/7/2016) for completion and distribution of the keys.
