Race Events and League Ladders - Five Day Solo Event (Standard) - Forum

I (like many others, I'm sure) would have actually been able to participate in a dozen or so of those. But as others have pointed out, unless a person is unemployed, retired, independently wealthy or has vacation time to burn (not to mention familial demands), there's a near zero chance of getting a key. I'd wish good luck to those participating, but they'd probably be better off if I wished them time. So, "Much Time!" to everyone participating. Much time & much luck on sustaining your map pools* :P Suppose you're right. And thinking about this a little more ... 120 individual races would allow for tremendous variety in terms of race mods and variation (along with a flood of participation). I think GGG could learn a thing or two about participation and variation from online poker.	Posted by SaintCabal on Apr 24, 2015, 9:53:53 AM Quote this Post

5 DAYS ENDLESS LEDGE RACE INCOMING.	Posted by LosKilleros on Apr 24, 2015, 10:40:17 AM Quote this Post
"All players who reach level 70 will go into a pool. 25 accounts from this pool will receive Closed Beta access at the end of the event. You may only enter this event with one account." I think the way GGG respond to players wishes and do their utmost to keep everyone as happy as they possibly can, is extremely commendable.

Anyone knows if people playing the race with Steam Accounts can win beta keys too?	Posted by kepa1110 on Apr 24, 2015, 11:09:41 AM Quote this Post
" Bleh. Should be a thing like "Get to L70 to be entered into a drawing for one of 35 beta keys." Top-anything in a race doesn't help anyone but the 0.1% out. I agree with what you say and also with the people saying shit should start on a Friday. The entire way beta has gone down so far has done nothing other then turn a lot of people off.

There are several people that swear up and down that steam users cant/wont be in beta and GGG hasn't actually cleared that up for anyone. I think those "the sky is falling for steam users" type are stupid but once again ...	Posted by Maverick31 on Apr 24, 2015, 11:13:59 AM Quote this Post
" imho thats a bad way to reward only the usual nl suspects will get keys also starting time is abhorrent for eu I agree.	Posted by Thoian on Apr 24, 2015, 11:15:13 AM Quote this Post
Guys, you are impossible to please. They give keys to prominent Streamers so we can all watch the new content, and thats wrong... They do exactly as suggested in this thread and then thats wrong too... If i was Chris id say screw the lot of you and we'll invite whoever we want...
