You care to show me some info which back up your claims that isn't based on what some people said/told you/what you pulled out of your rear end? Hm?
...(crickets chirping)...

Lol, no matter how many times you try, I'm not gonna violate the NDA for you of all people..You may not realize it (or prolly do and just acting crazy..) but to do that could cost me both my account and a friends. Not gonna happen, which is why your the only one asking for evidence that violates NDA on their own official forums.. Use that head of yours (assuming you have one..?) Why don't you ask one of your actual friends who got an invite? Don't know anyone? Awww, tough (but makes alot of sense!!)..
For me, all you'd have to do is click my name, view my posts, and show me where I backpedaled.. but alas, of course you can't even do that. Eh, I'm done with you, uhmm.. you win?? Moving on.
While I can understand the frustration coming from a lot of y'all, I think it is better that they let new players in anyways.
Haha, Reinheart.
Ive been reading threads and posts from all over the place and the common theme is that the posters didn't get in while their in-active (but with registered copy) friends did get in. Its not just from this thread.
If Reinhearts in-active uncle gets in over Reinheart himself then thats all that needs to be said.
The selection was not random in my opinion.
Im not too bothered, from what i have seen in the official videos, the active 1.0 players will have a lot of things that they loved missing and new features that are a clear move towards popular MMOs with character animations from the last decade.
I know its Alpha, an Alpha that is a frozen branch from over 2 months ago, but the decision to ignore the most active 1.0 players is strange, especially since it is only a stress test situation where people who quit are going to see an unfinished product which is the same feeling they last had with 1.0.
One last point, those legacy + active forums goers that got invited would now have moved over to the Alpha forums. So not going to hear from them.
I predicted that SE would do this. Even the dedicated 1.0 alpha testers have been pushed to the side as less active accounts/Last minute activated accounts get in. Bought GW2 just to fill the gap between 1.0 and ARR. Just find something else to play while we wait for more invites. Although it wont be easy hearing my friends over the Mic "whooow ARR alpha is so fun, etc." I'm gona have to mute some people lol.
In other words: "This evidence I have of my theories is based on he said, she said and, coincidentally (or rather "conveniently"), can't be divulged because of the NDA. But it's there, I swear to you! I know, it's based off word of mouth of a handful of people I supposedly know, and of course there's no way to get real statisctics on all the people who have been invited since there's too much I DON'T know because of the very NDA I'm using as a shield for why I can't divulge why and how I came up with my theories. But I promise you, my theories are legit! They are SO legit! They're too legit to quit!"
LOL Yeah, I think you'de better move on. That's the smartest thing you've said in a while.
Sorry for not reading through the hundreds of replies to see if this is answered, but the priority queue is in regards to beta, not alpha. I believe it is beta that the active players will get invited to first, not the alpha. I suspect you won't be missing out on much by not being in the alpha anyway.
