Don't give up, it took me 62 tweets (3 days) to get one.
Good luck

Just hit my daily limit and up to 140 tweets trying to get a damn key, is it really worth all this?

This whole thing is leaving a very bad taste in the mouth

Sent upwards of 300 tweets now using 3 accounts the last 4 days, over 200 of them today.

I am officially done, no more of this crap for me

I got one, am going to try for another for my son. All I can say to help is, SPAM them. And I mean SPAM!!!!!!!!!!! With twitter you can't send the same tweet twice, this is where the 'fullstop' comes in handy. Please observe. SPAM. Tweet, SPAM.. Tweet, SPAM... Tweet, SPAM.... Tweet, SPAM..... Tweet S.PAM Tweet, S..PAM Tweet, S...PAM tweet etc. Type a good message, put in a picture (best I saw was the guy off Lost, crying, surrounded by little pictures of the keys given away..., was actually really good

), copy it, and SPAM away, adding fulstops so you can resend the same tweet!

I apologized for my spamming during E3 and asked politely for a key today... Got a key within a few minutes!

I was sending a different tweet for about 12 hours. Finally said forget it. Since they seem to still be doing it, I decided to just send one request message.

so unimaginative, i sent upwards of a hundred tweets, most of them completely different.
i was just spouting nonsense mostly, but my tweet about lipstick having fish scales in it got me a key

Man I tried PS poems, Haikus, various jokes.
Even pointed out that one of the original screen shots had the TR using NC guns. Not the model but you could see the logo on the side!
Send about 100 tweets and nothing. Though I did see one guy get an invite for spamming the heck out of betakeybill.
Tried to do similar but no results.

I would submit art but I am NO artist, and I am not going to send in something that looks like a 5 year old drew it.

yeah, its not so much about what you write. more about getting picked out of the hundreds op tweets.
and ofcourse some luck

Kopatch · 2012-06-10, 12:01 PM

is there any way to know if your account is activated for beta?
I insert a key and it just sent me to the account page..
any idea?

Sotonian · 2012-06-14, 02:50 PM
