hmm...my code wont work for some reason.....this is an email from Trion......
Thank you for contacting us regarding Rift.
I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. The codes have recently been sent out. Please check your email for your beta access. Please understand that by having a VIP code doesn't guarantee you into the beta, in increases your chances of being selected. Unfortunately if you have entered your code after 12/1/2010 you will not be able to access the first beta.
If you have any additional questions or concerns then please don't hesitate to let us know. Thank you for your continued support of Trion Worlds and for playing Rift.
sounds strange to me. As I understood the VIP-keys should give GUARANTEED access to ALL beta-events.
And I also can't remember that they ever mentioned that keys would have to be registered until 12.01..
I hope someone from the support was just confused. If not I won't get into this beta and maybe not even in future tests.
That's very strange indeed. Even more so as I received my VIP key this evening (2nd of December, 9pm GMT+1) and just received the magic e-mail from Trion saying I'm accepted.
Thank you, Benthon! I managed to get a second key for my wife and now we're hoping she still makes it into this weekends beta. We're getting excited about this now that we found out we can play together.

You're welcome! I hope your wife gets in for this Beta event. It seems VIP members that registered after 12.02 are being hand picked. However, your wife has access to all events from now on so don't get your hopes down.
Also, be sure to patch the client frequently, as you don't want to be stuck in line come noon!
I have the shiny shortcut to my beta launcher teasing me right now, big thanks to mmorpg.com for the key
Be sure to launch the game and have the server selection open before the servers are actually up. That way you are able to get on the server in case the launcher explodes.
Benthon, you gotta love those MC creepers! Anyway, still hoping on a VIP key.. think it's too late tho.
Yea. I'm pretty much obsessed with creepers. I've gotten a plushie, shirt, and one made out of beads.
As far as a VIP key. I think Neoseeker is still giving out VIP keys for people just creating an account and posting on a certain thread for one. My buddy posted yesterday and got one... I checked today and the thread hasn't exploded or anything and they said they have a ton of them... Check it out!
I have an account there, just can't seem to find the topic, could you pm it?
I posted a new thread about this to let people know. . but my invite was just received Saturday night at 9PM EST for the weekend beta. . better late than never but maybe some of you got one as well.

I guess someone from Trion's support was drunk or simply confused because I just received my official invitation a few minutes ago!
Sorry that I spread false information! VIP stays VIP and invitations are still being send out!
If you applied your VIP key before 12.01 you should've already recieved your email, if after 12.01 they will send them the following day, I believe.
