Well how many did they choose for the first testing round. I think it were about 23 or so. Well I call those Luckyduckies.

I hope to get into Beta to someday, but I doubt they'll choose me (I'm not that much active on their forums).

The devs have said post count is not an issue, early on it's hardware and real world experience. The will eventurally get to stress testing the system and then they will start adding tons of people. So make sure you apply anyway, even if you don't think you'll get in early.

Hopefully they will run a few open beta weekends for stress testing, that should be lots of fun.

I allready have applied for it. I will see if I'm going to be one of the lucky ones.

I hope this will be a good game. It conect two things I like. Pirate Games and MMORPG's.
