nope its just a chance at a beta spot. 
Bleh, I already entered on the official site. I wonder if registering again with the promotion code will help? Anyone else sign up twice so to speak? yes you can send again

                Kinda late on this, but I got my invite the day they sent em out.  Only one of my old crew that I know of that was selected for Alpha, which also gives a guaranteed invite to the closed Beta. 
 
Looks like we will have an NDA, but I still look forward to checking it out.  I haven't been an Alpha tester for anything since Quake and Duke Nuke Em 3D, which were both a LONG time ago... 
 
Don't plan to try to access it until after work tonight, so hopefully it is up and running by then.

No wonder I never got the chance for Quake or Duke Nukem, back in the day... ppl like you who bombard and swarm to Vie for the chance....
 
...and I was being honest and used only one email back in the day... you lucky ***, or i'm just the unluckiest guy alive.

                I was just thinking,  Is this the start of the Beta test or is this the start of the Alpha test?  Cause if it's the Alpha test then i don't need to wait right now.  lol

dont think the browser really matters, I myself had lots and lots of trouble trying both firefox and chrome like 7 hours ago, but now it works fine in all 3, ie, ff & chrome.

If it actually did matter, I would have to disagree with you in which way it matter lol. because it was all *** up for me on both firefox and chrome, while works perfectly on IE.

dont get too excited over an alpha... it is more a pain rather than experiencing the game

                I didn't do anything illegit to alpha test Quake back in the day, just happened to know a guy who knew a guy.  It was only like 1 level with weapons and no enemies. 
 
Still, it was cool because the obvious upgrade over Doom II, which a lot of people were still playing at the time, was incredible. 
 
As for the Alpha, yes, included in the e-mail was the info that we are not to disclose anything.  People will, I'm sure, and friends of mine have been hounding me for details.  Of course at this point there are none to give anyway, but I'm not about to get myself ban-sticked for breaking an NDA during an alpha test. 
 
Also, they said that characters from alpha would not carry over to beta or final release.  They didn't say anything about whether beta characters would possibly carry over.  Alpha testers do, however, get automatic invite to closed beta.                                     
                
             
                        
         
             
    
    
        
        Quote: With the eagerly anticipated FINAL FANTASY XIV drawing ever nearer its beta test phase, we are excited to announce that we will be conducting a closed alpha test—exclusive to our loyal FINAL FANTASY XI users! 
Those who have been selected as beta testers can expect to receive further information starting from Monday, March 1. 
* The tester website is scheduled to go live on Thursday, March 11.  
 
Those who were not selected in this drawing, fear not, for there will be other opportunities to come. Be sure to stay tuned! As seen at  Vana'fest
