Can you please tell us the format of the e-mail in case it's delivered to the spam folder?

Do you usually get SE mail in your spam box? Clean you spam box on Sunday and check it on Monday.

Would it be possible to tell us 1. if the invites are only for the players with currently active characters,

This is known.

A chance for an invite is only available for anyone who applied to the freaking alpha.

For being able to apply to the alpha, you had to be a subscriber during the time the applications were up.

and 2. how many people will receive an invite for the Alpha on 28th?[/B]

There's no way they're telling.

You needed an active account to even sign up for it and more than likely around 1000 since that's their goal for stability per zone.

You have no idea, really.

My friend told me she had registered with and account that wasn't "active" at the time in a sense that she wasn't playing at the time (she had been playing before and has Legacy) and her account isn't active at the moment (was closed before the end of September).

I'm just asking if people like this even have a chance.

Not if her account was inactive during the time that alpha applications were available.

Hoping for a chance! even tho i think the ones getting in first will be those that admitted to be able to play 24/7 but still! /pray Rhalgr help meh!

That wasn't an option.

I felt it would be unrealistic for me to be willing to commit 12+ hours a day to testing. I chose the second option.

[Faiyez]

There's no reason to think your chances at being selected would be hurt simply because of your location. You were also a paying customer.

[Faiyez]

Would be awesome if at least legacy status players could get access, but i doubt it. Good luck to the lucky ones!

You had to agree to the NDA to be eligible for alpha testing.

When the dev said Nov 26th, does that mean Nov 26th JP or NA?

My guess is at the earliest you might wake up to the email come Nov 26th.

I think the dev meant PST time, since he announced it in english and every official announcement, as I've seen yet, in english has been in PST.
