Request for beta testers

[Hax]

Haha, no problem, Bovi.

Yet everyone may die of suspense

Friday: "Congratulations guys, you're all in! ... Guys?"

[Puupertti Ruma]

I think they're trying to make the selection process a bit easier by killing of half us with the suspense eh?

Maybe it is a cunning and evil test of our patience!

[overweightninja]

Like natural selection eh? I like it!

Haha, no problem, Bovi.

I thought sadism was a prerequisite for the EB team.

So true. Last week someone said to me "you are indeed a mean person I think".

I want my member-banner type "Makedonia". Thank you guys.

[d'Arthez]

Ya. I don't know if I will qualify - a stay of 6 months in South Africa has not been too conducive to posting on the forums. I was actually surprised I could realistically download EB 1.0 there, and play it substantially.

I would not mind proofreading substantial amounts of descriptions and such.

But we will see.

[Hooahguy]

argh, im leaving for new york on thursday...... wont be back until monday (but my friend is bringing his laptop- with EB, so ill get my daily fix of EB) night.... then im home free- can you say "13-hour EB marathon?"

[d'Arthez]

Only 13? And you call yourself a fan!

[The Celtic Viking]

Only 13? And you call yourself a fan!

Agreed. I, myself, can get in 175 hours of EB in a busy week, if I also want some time with friends and physique.

[Hooahguy]

well, i do have school and my gf......
EDIT: actually, before my laptop broke, and if you count hanging around in these forums as EB time, i get in every day besides the sabbath at least 20 hours......

[d'Arthez]

That is more like it!

[Redmeth]

PM's have been sent. thank you for your applications. If the need will arise we'll contact more of you who signed up.

Thank you very much for your interest and please don't get discouraged or offended if you did not get chosen.

Here's something to make you feel better

[Hax]

Congratulations to all who got in.

Meh, better luck next time.

Hey, question. How did you do the picking? Just at random, or in another way?

[Hooahguy]

well, maybe ill be chosen nex time, as Hax said....
well, at least my gf will be happy i wont be giving my life to EB!
EDIT: congratz to all who are beta testers!

[General Appo]

well, i do have school and my gf......
EDIT: actually, before my laptop broke, and if you count hanging around in these forums as EB time, i get in every day besides the sabbath at least 20 hours......

20? Ha, I do double that per day!

[Hooahguy]

you have 40-hour days where you are? lucky......
lol

[General Appo]

Well actually, I live on Venus, where on day takes 243 days, 26 minutes and37.0164 seconds of Earth time, so spending 40 earth hourse on EB isn´t really all that much. Guess I should do a bit more, but the station always requires so many repairs I can barely get time over to sleep, even less enjoy my self.

[Spoofa]

if you need anymore then im up to it, ive played EB for a year or two now since .74 and I have a load of freetime along with knowledge of how the game works/what does what/you know what i mean.

[Puupertti Ruma]

I feel better already, thank you! The pic is awesome, yaw droppingly awesome! So what are they? My guess is pantodapois.

[johnhughthom]

Good luck to all who got in, enjoy playing 1.1 before the rest of us.

(Of course what I really mean is, I hope the latest build is an unplayable buggy mess )

[Hax]

Thank you very much, I hope the same. Well, actually, EB 1.1 was finished long time ago. This is the stage where we completely make the build bug-infested so you can crave for update 2.4, that we finished two hours ago.

[Hooahguy]

can you list the people who were chosen? or is it some deep-dark secret that must be kept until 1.1 is released?

[Hooahguy]

a liiiiiiiittle late......
lol!

[Tellos Athenaios]

Well, uhm, yeah, hmm, maybe if I, no better not yet.

Hax: don't torture them like that! The truth is always the worst to hear, so you might as well let them believe the myth that 1.1 is upon us.

[Tellos Athenaios]

IIRC that's never been done until the release of the beta-tested version to public when the testers get mentioned in the credits.

I always figured that there must be a good reason for doing so, and one I could think of is the fact if nobody but the team and testers know who got elected then the testers won't have to be tempted to answer silly serenades from craving fans with info on the latest status of the mod. As for members: we've come to exchange this kind of 'tell-me, tell-me' posts with some light-hearted remarks or sacrasm or just a pack of lies to tease you ehm that is the full and inquestionable truth.

[Hax]

@Tellos: Damn, sorry.

Btw, I just finished the Dogs models for 2.9, but the Lorica Segmentata Romans are still under-way, I have an error with their sprites!

Have you seen Teleklos' Egypt chariot-models? They look awesome!

[Hooahguy]

im still working on the camel-raider models!
after that im onto the screeching women.....

[tfarr007]

oops didnt see the testers were chosen * edit

[Centurio Nixalsverdrus]

Thanks for saving my Carthage campaign.

[bovi]

The main reason why we don't say who were chosen is the off chance that someone who applied to be a tester and wasn't chosen would be offended if we made that information public. It's not a dark secret, and many who don't get chosen do indeed say so, it is then their choice.
