On November 8th, 2010, the following will happen:

1. Our closed beta process will begin in the morning
Our closed beta users have already been chosen. Chances are excellent that if you haven't already heard from us by now on an official basis, you won't be in the closed beta. The closed beta group will help with some core testing, which may be as boring as following a list of instructions or a list of things to test for functionality. Their testing will last as long as it takes to get some basic portions of the site working 100% perfectly. Only then will we start the open beta.

2. Our open beta sign-up page will go live sometime between 10am and 6pm
The public beta sign-up page will be at http://beta.armorgames.com/. On that page, you'll only need to enter your Email address. I highly recommend you use the same Email address as your AG2 account, so we can synchronize your account settings easier, and it won't make sense to register multiple Email accounts because beta testers who do not reply to their invite codes will get dropped from the beta. We will not manually add anyone to the list. If you want in, you have to add yourself. I expect it will be some time in the morning, United States Pacific (California) time, but we might need longer to get everything synchronized.

3. We will send out messages on Twitter letting people know that AG3 Beta is starting
I highly recommend you follow these Twitter accounts for updates:
- @armorgames - this is the official Armor Games twitter feed where we announce new games being released, but we'll also announce on here when the beta sign-up page is live. I don't know how much else we'll say on this Twitter account about the beta.
- @cormyn - this is my personal Twitter account (well, one of them), where I will be posting information about the beta process once we get started. I expect to be pretty verbose about what we're working on, things that are working, etc.

We'll probably tell our closed beta users not to say too much publicly about AG3 until someone from AG says it first.

We don't expect the closed beta to go on very long before we start inviting people who signed up after the 8th.

So there is two emails?
This is what you should receive.

Over the coming months we will be inviting users to participate in our AGv3 Beta program. We will be sending each user a unique participation code.

Users will use the participation code along with their email address to enter the Armor Games v3 Beta site.

Detailed instructions will be provided in your official invitation email so stay tuned.

The Emails you'll get for signing up should show up immediately. Check your spam folders for anything from mail@armorgames.com

Freak and DayCee will get their closed beta invites soon.

Yep, got it, considering I can type my own username pretty fast, I was pretty confident it's nice to be reassured though

I just noticed a bit of blood on the sign. I can't believe you forgot to clean it!

I've been in for a bit now, and sadly the adrenaline rush is gone now..... I practically jumped 30 feet in the air when I kept pressing it and BAM that new sign hit the screen. xD

Hmm, I tried with my AOL E-mail as soon as the Beta sign-up came online and still no E-mail but I've just tried with my hotmail account and BOOM instant E-mail. I've checked my spam folder... I wonder if it's a problem on AOL's part...
