Bloody hell some people seriously get their knickers in a twist over not getting to play a free game a month or two early, huh?

"Hey guys, we're going to give out some free beta keys for our free game, do something fun and you might get one!"
"Fuck you asshole my life is wasted how dare you not ensure that I personally get a key!?"

[Vattic]

Well, from what I can tell:

You can remove that question mark .

7 is enough for an infiltrator, manned liberator, and some ground forces!

Porn. Gay porn. Lots of it.

Wouldn't that risk me getting banned?

Sordid, what has this thread taught us about sarcastically giving bad advice (even obviously bad advice)?

I managed to get attention by saying the guy handing out the keys has beautiful thighs. Who'd have thought that'd work.

EDIT: no key though.

I have to say this spectacle has been entertaining, in an awful, lowers-my-faith-in-the-dignity-of-mankind kind of way.

Yeah, this whole twitter nonsense sounds more and more power-trippy the longer it goes on.  Gonna end up with no keys left to people who legitimately signed up on the website!

Theoretically, they can give out an infinite number of "keys" if they really want to.  I don't think any of them expected the response to become so bizarre so quickly.  They went from under-the-radar to having people degrade themselves for a chance to play an unfinished game a few weeks before anyone else got to play said unfinished game.  I think everyone should chill out and observe the following image (warning: huge, also warning: adorable).

I haven't heard anything about the artist who did the photoshop, but I sure hope they got a key if they were trying to get one.

Catnu Sovereignty is still Giant Enemy Crab.

I have been bored, so here is a KSP mosquito.

It flies about as well as a leaf in a hurricane.

I wish I could swivel engines for VTOL goodness.

Well then it's pretty acc...

Sorry, that's too easy.  Not even I'm going that low.

Yes, how dare they? I for one am a big believer in fairness. I signed up for the damn thing on their website the moment it became available. I haven't received anything yet. But now they're having people debase and degrade themselves for their own amusement? And they're giving early access as a reward for this on a whim, at the cost of the people who signed up legitimately? (because early beta will presumably only accommodate a limited number of people, so every person who gets in via their twitter equals someone else who gets pushed down the queue) That is unfair and disgusting.

Giant Enemy Crab.

Giant Enemy Crab nothin', Vanu's the bloody Space Pirates.

Not sure what to think, now, other than I'm glad none of the other factions have a predominately orange/yellow color scheme.

[Denzi]

Been lurking in the thread mostly, but count me in on as another dwarf for the Bay 12 outfit whenever the game hits open beta, or if I somehow randomly pick up a beta key. Since there has been discussion on side I will say I don't have too much of an opinion, though I'm not the biggest fan of TR's 'spray-and-pray' philosophy.

[Sensei]

That twitter nonsense DOES sound stupid and degrading. That's why I'm just waiting to receive my key normally.

Hello new desktop.

[Dariush]

Anyway, where did people get the idea that you have to send in some insane product of a sick mind to get a key?

I don't know, but the whoever's in charge of the keys has been doing everything they can to support it. I, personally, appreciate that. Making fun of overeager fans, while still (usually) giving them what they want.
