    5 hours. Unfortunately, it showed up 45 minutes after I fell asleep last night, so I didn't get to start downloading it until this morning. Almost done now.

    I signed up at about 10:00 last night and waited until 3:00 in the afternoon today, still no key.  So I signed up again and got the key within 10 minutes.

    whats the logic behind giving out account keys in groups? Is it somethin about fraud, or are blizzard/fp extremely sadistic and enjoy watching thousands of people get hyped up about the stress test and then watch them suffer as they wait painfully for hours and hours upon gazzilions of hours to wait for they're account #?

    Got mine instantly, but I signed up like 5 minutes after they put it up. It was displayed on the page right after the signup page and I recieved my email simultaneously. Downloaded last night and been playing for a few hours sofar today. Got a lvl 9 undead mage and a level 7 dwarf rogue. I think I'm gonna play the UD mage ::::28::

    Me.  I'm at 12 hours and counting.  I made the mistake of waiting til this morning to check for an update.  I think the longer you wait to sign up the longer the wait will be as Im sure a lot of people signed up this morning.  I think we were sort of put in queue to get our keys.  Once the news got out, more and more people signed up. 

  • VodalusVodalus Member Posts: 103

    Agreed. Im betting on not having my key till sometime tomorrow (hopefully before I get home from work). I signed up around 6 this morning and still no key

    I'm not planning on getting mine til tomorrow either.  I doubt at this hour the webmaster of the site is doing anything with it.  I'm just hoping the thing finishes downloading before I get my key.  Hopefully this thing speeds up a bit over night.

  • maddogmikiemaddogmikie Member Posts: 349

    It's been 10 hours for me now...

    well I signed up yesterday, but I got the acceptance msg this morning and applied this morning.

    seriously Im all set to go, but all I need is the dam CD key...

    Same here maddaog, I signed up around 2 this afternoon and now it's about 11pm. Downloaded the client using the FP link provided by the good people of this site in 3 hrs. Now it's installed and I even watched the intro movie several times. But there's still no key!!!!! Where is this key???? ::::27:: Those of you who installed already, watch the movie, it'll either qench for thirst for a little while, or drive you mad with more anticipation!!!!

    sounds like you live in Eastcoast... Im in the West. its almost 8 o'clock here.

    *sigh* image well I saw the movie twice... first time was awesome secound time is making me mad alil lol hahaha *cough* image

  • dompteusedompteuse Member Posts: 2

    I know what you mean dude. Yeah I'm on east coast. Right now I'm beatting over my head why I didn't sign up FP when they sent me an email concerning the stress test. ::::03:: I'm just afraid that the anticipation is so high for me that I'll be completely dissappointed when I get to play it. However, I must say Blizzard had never dissappointed me before; the opening movie is an indication...

    I just got my key.  I waited about 13 hours or so before it came.  What sucks is I've been downloading this stupid file all frikkin day.  I'm stuck at 25k on my DSL connection.  Earlier in the day it was running at 300k.  I don't know why it's slowed down so much.  I can only guess it's because more people are downloading now. 

  • HiHoEskimoHiHoEskimo Member UncommonPosts: 82
    Finally!! and it only took 24 hours to get the key.......................
