Default Boxee Invites and Member Status

There are obviously many factors that go into judging who gets Beta invites: the alignment of the stars, geological tremors, and reading tea leaves are just a few examples.

I'm just wondering how people's member status' on the forum affect getting boxee beta. Obviously, moderators get first choice (*pout*). But what about senior members, members, junior members, and non-members? Does "seniority" have a significant effect?

Fill out the poll, and lets find out!

Pout nothing... I earned my spot.

Yes, community involvement is taken in to consideration. But, it's not like PageRank... there is no defined formula.

Also, not all mods got it first. There are quite a few inactive mods.


[BTW, this is the last post about beta invites... from here on out, they get closed.]

I was part of the private alpha and I still have nothing. Hopefully the CES date is still good. I have a mac/windows/linux systems just waiting to test on.

Um... yeah. If you're asking if the team is going to miss CES to release a product that is almost the point of CES, they will not.

LMAO... I thought the same thing, but figured I'd let it go... glad I'm not alone.



@Everyone:
Listen, Jan 7th is not that far away... The beta will be here soon enough. Everyone just take a deep breath and calm down.

Now, a scene from Bad Boys II: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-JEcCkFJho
