Anyone who needs a key, say "i want a key" explain why, and ill put you on the list. Im choosing real passionate / honest people. Even if you played SC for 1 day or lifetime, as long as your honest with me and WHOLE HEARTEDLY want to play this game, you get a key. If i give you a key, and it goes to waste, dont expect anything more out of me anymore.

thank you so much dude :D

I work at BB, our pre orders were labled for march 31st originally I believe, but they've been moved up obviously.

I would be pre ordering right now, but Im going to wait and see what the premium package costs after staff discount.

Oh, very nice (Y).

Please share how much it will cost, my CE will cost me 89$.

Might get 2 if I have the money.

I want a key because I've been Blizzard's loyal pet ever since the day of Diablo 1 and the original Warcraft :( and because I want to make my friends jealous that I've played the game first before all of them. Also want to blog about the Beta, getting millions of visitors a month because of it (nah, the last one is a joke - I'm sure it's against the TOS as much as I want to :D)

People(Pros) are technically "blogging" about the beta, so not much TOS there lol. But, your on the list. This is the answers im expecting. Not "I wanna try this game out".

If you still have a key Sikh I would really love to get it :D. I play SC for ten years now... battle.net, ICCUP etc (In fact tonight is the SC night - once a week we gather and play 1v1 :). So a key will make at least 3 people happy cause we will share that key until the SC2 is released. I would pre-order it but unfortunately that offer is not available in my country :(. Thanks.

ahaha Super Pro!

You will get 3 keys. I am proud to see some ICCUp players. I knew a few people personally who I LAN with that ICCUp, one dude is like 15 and ****ing ROLLS people in SC. Idk what his rank is, but he's up there.

Dexter, ill see what I can do for you

thank you alot,cross finders and pray for early access before full game :-)

thanks ,

looks like good and easy editor and I believe it very fun :woot:

Oh, it's fun alright. You can basically pit any unit against any unit. I had fun with mass Zerglings vs. Ghosts, mass Seige Tanks vs. Immortals, etc. You know, just to see which unit would win in any given scenario. The editor is surprisingly easy to use once you get comfortable with it. It isn't feature-complete as most of the doodads and creep are mere placeholders. The units/structures are there, obviously. I'm sure it'll be even better when the game is released.

Sikh.... pretty please could i get a key?????? blush.gif

I think you'll have to provide a reason why you want the beta key. Are you a loyal fan? Honesty will go a long way. :)

A loyal fan of SC ???? man alive... need you ask??? cool.gif

MAJOR fan..... i have downloaded the SC2 fansite images, and everything...! i dedicated an old P3 machine at home purely to play SC on windows 98...!!!! and believe me it gets tons of play...>! I have been worse than a kid before xmas searching daily for any sniff of a release date... i have pre-ordered SC2 collectors edition, without caring about the price.... been checking my battle.net acct daily for a chance that i got a key.......

i am literally twitching at the moment here wondering if i might have made someone pity me and a PM with a present might arrive in my inbox...!!!!! ALL THIS FROM WORK....... and my boss sits opposite me!!! so have become pretty darn good at masking the clicking, and keypressing every few seconds...

Sikh has been a superb dude giving people keys on neowin.... and UBER kudo's to him, and those that were lucky enough to get keys.... granted.... jealousy and anxiety has been rampant in my system.... but the lucozade might have a hand in that too!! :)

.... erm..... that is all that my frazzled brain has to offer right now....!!!late nights brushing up on SC tactics in preperation for SC2 have left me a semi-zombie!!! w00t.gif

I hope that quells your concern over my loyalty cool.gif

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
    • you can also do this with this tool: PowerSettingsExplorer made by mbk1969 at 3dguru forum.. I found it by accident researching on modern standby and annoying quirks of it in 2022
