    PTR Testing

    I have been playing WoW for 3 years now and I have heard/seen videos of the PTR. Does Blizzard pick who gets to get on these PTRs or do you have to get lucky to be able to test on the PTR? Anyone know because I would be interested in this. Thank you for the feedback.

    It says you have to download some files. Anyone know how long/size these files are? Do you have to download another copy of WoW.exe?

    It is basically another copy of Wow that will be installed.
