I'd recommend that you just try to sample it all, and not really try too hard to level your character or anything... just play around with a few classes and a few races to get a view of the world. in 7 lag-filled days you're not gonna be able to advance too far.
I'd save the serious playing for retail and/or open beta, depending on those rules... but I think that these 7 days should be used for finding your niche in the game and seeing if it's truly worth your money.
as long as you play at those odd hours of the night, it will be playable
any where from 2-10pm i'd say will be horrible
not only are they getting "free testers", they are planting the WoW seed in your mind. Don't get me wrong I love blizzard and hope the game will be a great sucess, but you know damn well that you rarely hate a game after seven days. It actually makes you want to play more because you're intrigued, but your time will be cut short before you get to make a conclusion.
all in all it will be a good thing. they get to test, we get to test . . . all is well

I will gladly pay $7 to help test this game. I understand it will be laggy but it is the only chance i get to see the game for myself. I payed and i am ready! I didnt know much about classes so i researched and decided to either be a Dwarf Hunter or a Dwarf Paladin... Most likely a hunter... IMA GONNA BAG ME A WOLF!
I'm glad to be in the stress beta but I don't have my hopes up for a thorough look at the game this week. We're just bodies (100,000 of them) intended to overload the server. Lag WILL be bad and finding a mob to kill will be a challenge with players swarming every square foot of the world. Tonight will be madness, but madness can be fun. I may have to change my shedule to play from 4 AM to 10 AM to actually try to advance my character a bit.
It will be fun to create a character and actually have the skills working. I remember on the hacked server the armor didn't work the quests didn't work. Just kill a few mobs thats it. I'm gussing that once I enter the town the lag will be worse than Lineage 2. And Lineage 2 was in full release. Oh boy am I in for a treat.
