Okay, I tried to pre-order the game, only to get the dreaded "Payment Authorization Failed" message. I tried a few more times throughout the day, as per advice on the forums, to no avail.

Now as I'm working the overnight shift at my job, I check my bank account and find that there's 4(!) authorizations, all for $0, on my account. I haven't received a single email from SE or Digital River.

I'm hoping this is nothing, but those authorizations have me really nervous. I simply cannot afford 4 copies of the game.
