This has nothing to do with white stuff falling from the sky.

Emails were apparently sent out today for the closed Starcraft 2 beta. I did not receive an email. This is bullshit.

What do I need to do? I signed up for the beta day one (I think), I uploaded my computer specs, and I registered my Starcraft Battle Chest and my Warcraft III and Frozen Throne keys. Did I need my Diablo and Diablo II keys? Would that have gotten me in? Do I blame my dad for throwing out a shitload of PC game cases I had piled up that included those two games? Do I have him to blame for extending my wait to experience the game I’ve been anticipating for a dozen years? Just tell me. TELL ME. WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?!?

I guess I can give up Starcraft II for Lent now, though. Unless of course I get an email in a later wave — then all is forgiven. And Starcraft II is chosen over God.
