Alpha Tester Acceptance Mails Heading Out!

[Elexia]

There's 2 phases for Japan, and given that it will take a month my bet is NA/EU will be last 1 1/2 of it. They now NA players will get pissy even though it's an alpha, so I wouldn't doubt they'd rather get all the major snags out the way with the local playerbase first even if it takes most of the time, since it is just testing and not really playing the game like some people take alpha and betas.

Probably about right, certainly it won't be shorter than 9 days. Since it's 2 phases, there needs to be at least some downtime between them, and getting a large enough sample will take at least 3-4 days per phase.
