Closed Beta keys will be emailed soon to the first batch of players in Europe, so make sure to place Blizzard.com on your Spamguard safelist, and check your bulk folder often in case your beta key is sent there by your email provider by accident. Guys … it is coming! Source: Wow Forums

Aguilar: “Hello! We would like to give you some insight into our invitation process for the upcoming closed Beta of The Burning Crusade.

We are inviting players from all different playing areas. And we feel we have a pretty fair distribution, so as to make sure that when T.B.C. comes out we will have had beta testing of all the many, different aspects of our exciting, first World of Warcraft expansion.

To maximise the testing process we intend to introduce players into the test in multiple waves. People who aren’t in at the beginning of the test could very well be invited in a subsequent phase.

Testers will be contacted in due time. For those who do receive invites, we will not be asking you for your password or account name, so don’t be fooled by any scams.

And last but not least, we’ll be providing more information to everyone soon!”<?blockquote>
