I have 2 accounts. One of them has 51 months and the other has 39 months.

That's 90 months - way more than these 63 month dweebs. :P

I was in every closed beta until i13 and found quite a number of bugs. Wasn't invited for i14 closed, and still found a bunch of exploits during its open beta (including several ways to achieve permanent double XP in the AE). Still wasn't invited to i16's, so I figure their selection criteria just changed or previous findings don't count towards future participation.

The only reason I should ever be in Closed Beta is if the devs pick me for Closed Beta.

Because being in two closed betas at once would make the world explode,

and that's pretty -ing villainous.

If they let PvPers on test they won't have to worry about them on live?

Take your pick. I should be in CoX closed betas because:

"I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like me." -Stuart Smalley

Or I shouldn't be because:

"I don’t care to belong to any club that will have me as a member." -Groucho Marx

Regardless I've been in most of the closed betas the game has offered.
Sucks when I'm not in one, but it's all good in the end.

So I can laugh at the people who are not in it.

Then get thrown out of the beta.

But it was all worth it because I selfishly threw it away to mock those who didn't get in.

Because I could.

Yup.

Because my birthday was only a couple of weeks ago and beta access would make a great belated birthday present.

So I could start documenting stuff for the Paragon Wiki. Even better, I wish I could nominate two or three other people to get in, because honestly, they're better at it than I am. Still, I'd take what I can get.

Plus, I actually fill out generally tedious bug reports on simple "polish" issues, such as obscure spelling and grammatical errors. I carefully read everything and use my English pedantry to hopefully keep others from being distracted.

We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.

Ironically, you make an interesting point. A few color blind players need to be in the beta to help create / debug the options that normally restrict those players.

No.

(If i'm selected it's because the Devs think i will contribute something to the process. If i'm not it's because they don't. Since i don't know the exact criteria for selecting closed beta testers i'm not going to bother trying to justify my inclusion.)

i make stuff...

All the issues that have had me in closed beta have rocked... All those that have not have sucked.

This one isn't in any danger of sucking, but I'd hate to see the streak be broken.

All that is planned fails. All that is born dies.
All that is built crumbles. This will always be true.

But memories remain, And that is beautiful.

Anyone else here using Windows 7? I just installed it and CoH seems to run a bit more choppy than it used to.

I should be in the closed beta because otherwise I will be spending all my time playing
Champions Online instead?

When something good happens to me, I can never enjoy it....
I am always too busy looking for the inevitable punchline...

BEHOLD THE POWER OF CHEESE!

Wait, wait, wait ... you're not in the closed beta yet? Considering how many things I've seen you horribly break during previous closed betas, you'd think your name would be added to the "must invite" list.

Because Ill bring them Jamba Jucie?


[edit] Keep in mind, Im not above bribing the devs to show them what a great job they are doing, but as far getting it to beta is I don't really care either way.

I should be in I16's closed beta because I was unable to make use of my I12 closed beta invite.
