To me i think it is, i have been waiting to play the game. I forgot to sign up grrr.
A $100 is not that much really to me to get to play this for awhile.
I always liked beta to, i have made some of my better friends online in beta's.

Yeah I know your rich 8o)
But man 100 bucks for a beta account. For all we know they might descide to release it early, or they have hardly any problems. That would suck 8o\
But Blizzard seems to over do their beta periods to ensure the game is uber.

I am not rich, i do make decent money.
But another thing i still do is bartend on Sat Nights. I don't have to do this but i still do and make $350 - $400 for one night. I use that as weekly spending money, so thats why i say for $100 bucks i would gladly pay for it.
Plus when i am board i buy console games that i play once and never touch again.

Well hardest thing with bartending is getting your first job. I actually started when i was 18, then moved around some. I bartended in most of the big clubs in the Detroit area, and i know a lot of the owners. Thing with bartending its hard to find people to trust, so if you are good, and they trust you its easy to get jobs in clubs.
The club i work at now is crazy its 70's music which i hate but its very busy, i rarely hear the music after 11 pm. On a avg night i ring in $3400 to $4500 in liquor sales myself in a 4 hour period.
No matter how much i make at my day job its hard to give up bartending one night a week.

Bartending sounds so much fun. It's probably a chore, eh?

At times it can be. Worse part was when i just did it for money. If you had a slow night it was really s****y because that was your only income.
Now i did it more just for fun and the extra money. Even if i made nothing it would not affect me being able to pay my bills.
All in all i still have fun, its busy so it goes fast, i flirt with girls all night. So its not bad at all.
Bartending in a restaurant sucks though, i did that for Fridays back in the day for a long time. I will never work at a bar with a blender again.

I usualy share my beta accounts with people unless I get addicted to it and play it all the time hah.
I usualy don't let beta's distract me from my main game at the time, unless I don't have one then I play it and try and contribute as much as possible.

Beta has been out.. couple hours now? And the auction has over 6 days left.
In case it gets removed too fast: there's a beta CD key for sale @ $102 right now with 15 bids and about a week left to go.
