Heh, I applied on the first or second day the beta was available. I honestly forgot how long my explainations and motivations were. Hopefully I'm just being over-paranoid, along with thinking I didn't type in my e-mail right. :D

Oh goodness... I'm hoping I wasn't too concise...

Does that extra bit I posted here count also? I'll repost it to make it easier for you if you'd like...

Just 'cause your paranoid doesn't mean the world isn't out to get you. :D

But I'm in the same boat. I'm trying very hard to remember what I wrote. I think I'm safe, but there's this little bit of doubt lingering. :)

Now now, everyone. Johan said that all he needed to see was evidence that you could explain a bug well enough that they could find it and fix it. Now Johan and the rest of the folks at Paradox are awesome, right? Of course they are! So I'm sure all they need in their bug reports is something along the lines of, "The gmae (sic) like, crashes and stuff," and they'll be able to fix everything. Look at EUII and HoI if you don't believe me!

I'm sure that the vast majority of the applications show at least this basic level of bug describing capability. So they're going to have move on to more stringent tests of Beta Testing fitness... Like a cage match!

Two men enter, one man leaves! :)

Oh no! Had I known that was the purpose of that section, I wouldn't have deliberately aimed for brevity :) I figured that the best thing to do was to keep it simple on the theory that you would have to read a billion of them, and I'd hate to destroy the eyesight of our friendly neighbourhood paradox programmer. Oh well, lol.

A good way to find out if you've been accepted is when you see the 'Victoria - Beta forum' among the available forums...

edit: which is not true of course now that I think on it, first you'll have to sign the NDA....must be old age catching up.

To be sure: do we get an email when we're rejected, too? I might have been confirmed before, but I didn't feel like hunting this thread for that info. :rolleyes:
