I just saw the thing saying they have 20,000 cds to ship for the beta. I was hoping to get in the closed beta so i dont have to wait for the open to come around. I have changed my dxdiag twice since i signed up, do you guys think resubmitting your dxdiag pushes you further back in line?

I hope not

Ya, that would be really bad for me

Same here

I doubt it pushes you back in line.

Lucky for me I haven't had to change it... Maybe not I don't have anything new in my computer right now

There is no line. It is a pool. You are either in it, or out of it.

So basically someone who signed up today could get chosen over someone who signed up the first 5mins of sign ups? That kinda sucks but i guess its gotta be "fair"

Yup I signed up the 1st five minutes it was up.

if you get picked do they send you a email asking you where to send the disk?

Yes, and if you signed up after the first 5 minutes, you are in the same category as those who signed up way back in November.
