on the other hand im sure that bethesda is smart enough to keep track of who actually posted in the forums, whether they were given any warnings, etc.
they might not catch em all but im sure they are smart enough to weed out the ones that are just tryin to get free stuff. like the dumb guy that pasted he was gonna leak info if he got the beta...i bet u he wont get it lol.
personally i really do want the beta. as ive said b4 i love Elder Scrolls and would love to be able to help fix bugs, but if i dont get it then w/e...im still gonna buy it

Yes, I signed up right after the beta was announced. I agree with you. Skyrim is a great game and I don't really mind waiting for the actual non-beta version of DawnGaurd to be released.I'll still get it, just not as the same time as those accepted into the beta. I've only been in one beta before and there were a few bugs/glitches of coarse. It was still fun to participate in such an event.
It will be great to be able to participate on this earlier than other but still. It's just a beta, the real thing will be released in time. You don't know who wants it to actually do the job and test for bugs/etc. and whom wants it just because they'll get it for free. Some say they will actually test it but we can't rely on that. Nothing is certain so... Good luck to you all! It's not like luck has anything to do with it but still.

That's all I wanted to say. In time, we will find out. Thanks guys and once again, "Have fun out there in Skyrim!"
