Guess who's a SWTOR tester now?!!!

Yesterday morning, I got the email I'd long been waiting for:

You Have Been Selected to Test Star Wars: The Old Republic!

Eeeeeee!!!!! Following a brief squee, I suddenly became worried that this email had been sent out by accident, after an incident a month ago or so when I panicked upon receiving an email asking for my feedback on testing thus far. Frantic spam box searching occurred before I took to Twitter and discovered that there were a lot of other people having the same issue. The SWTOR team sent out an apology email a day or two later.

But this new email was an invite, not some strange message implying that I should already be testing the game. I quickly followed the link to confirm my place in the testing, and to assure myself that it was a real invite. I'm in. Turns out, the testing I've been invited to is just for this weekend. Yes, we're only a little over a month away from the game being officially released, and yes, it's only for one weekend, but still I'M SO EXCITED!!!!

I downloaded the game, and hopefully everything will run smoothly enough. If all goes well, I will be lost to the real world, in a galaxy far, far away, as of 1:00 PM Hawaii time today. See you all on Monday.

It was so much fun, I'm kind of going through withdrawal right now. No desire to do anything else.

There was a confidentiality agreement that I agreed to, but all I want to do now is talk about the game. Trying to figure out what to do about that...
