Heh, nice to see cb is that bit closer. Suppose I need to get my rear into gear sorting the guild stuff out. ;)

Thats great that CB is out in closed alpha. But i was wondering. Those of us that dont get to play it, will we be on lockdown from all the info like we have been for the past long time? Or will the testers be able to speak of what they see?

Hooray for progress!!


So...the most loyal fans? Are you just going to pick the most popular or how is this going to work?

They will do what they said: Pick the most loyal fans.
Mostly that\'s the folks like Moogie who are either on the boards or IRC most of the day. They don\'t just want a bunch of fan-boys running around looking at things. They want folks that are going to \'test\' the system by trying to climb walls and the like. They are probably going to open it up to the people that are current GMs/Moderators and a select few others.
I\'m just damn glad that it has got to this phase and am looking forward --->

To the great times in MB

*sniff* I\'ll miss MB. All the fun adventures with my friends, collecting crystals, running up the walls, falling off the map, walking through walls, climbing into cages.
As I stand here looking into the heavens, I begin to see forms familiar to me. All whom I have killed have come to mock me. I turn away, only to see the abyss, enticing me towards it. There is no turning back now, only one way to go. So I head into the abyss, the nothingness, the future unseen.

It doesn\'t matter if your picked so don\'t worry. Think about it this way, when they release it to the public it\'ll already have that many less bugs in it.

So its not a big deal if your chosen or not. It\'s not the end of the world. Anyways it says a week or two later, they\'ll add more people. So if you don\'t get chosen, calm down! :)

Great news!

Keep up the good work devs!  Of course, the real treat would also be to play with the devs, I think that would be the most fun... :)

Well this is a welcome surprise, Congratz to the lucky few who manage to help the dev team find bugs and test CB!

You and the next group of testers will be the envy of us all :D!

It\'s been said that screenshots and information will probably be restricted, and alpha testers might have to sign some sort of NDA. The only one who can give an official word on that, however, is Talad.
