Original beta / chosen few

Two questions; Are we guaranteed beta access and also I've changed my username since the "secret test / feedback thing", is that a problem? Old username was DUBSTEP.

Taken from their site:

All users that request access are guarenteed to be part of our closed BETA. There is no contest for places here!

The selected few that were part of our initial preview(s) will be given access roughly one to two weeks before our public BETA. At the same time, the winner of our Amazing Thursday competition will also be given access early. Whilst we don't like to make promises on dates, because as with any large project such as this small problems can cause release times to move around considerably, we can guarantee you'll be online before anybody else. We will, however ensure that the client you see is as close to, if not the finished version of Kazopark, as opposed to the current Alpha build where all 360 items and 60 clothing items are still being tested.

Further to this, once our BETA opens on July 12th everybody that wishes to access Kazopark, will be able to.

You say the winner of the Thursday competition, yet we can't enter it without a username? :S

We released a fix last night to remove the requirement for a username for the initial Amazing Thursday - You should just need to provide an email address and an answer to be able to enter.

Update 15:00: Apparently the fix didn't go live last night - It should be resolved within the hour.

Kimber · 06-06-2010, 07:02 PM

I have just been informed that the fix is now live and you should be able to enter Amazing Thursday without a username.

Not sure if it has sent or not as there is not confirmation... :S

After our midnight backups (PDT) an update will be pushed enabling Amazing Thursday to be entered once again.

We'd like to appologise for the time it took to resolve this issue.
