Thanks Sir Christopher,

I only wish the list of people who'd gotten invites had been longer. I know there are alot of bummed out people. Don't know exactly what criteria they used. I would assume that alot of it had to do with hardware configurations since a game that is this far along in it's development is pretty much done "content" wise. I would also bet that with the limited time they have left till the thing has to go gold, they chose folks that they could get the software to quickest.

All guesses on my part of course. Most of my beta experience has been with multiplayer/online games, and with those, the beta criteria is usually much different. But, having been part of some software development/deployment projects in the past, I am sure they have their hands full. Just hope the game comes out on time so it can hammer the holiday shopping season with grapeshot! ARRR!

Ah crap, I have been away and checked my junk email folder but there was nothing. What if I got one and it got deleted?

I checked the beta test site and it still said pending so I guess that's a rejection. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
