Figures, you have way more of their games than me. All I have is wow which I didn't start a subscription for. The free month is as far as I got.

On a side note just to boost my ego...my q9550 is higher clocked than yours on slower ram AND stock cooling. HA !

Not that it's relevent, but i needed something to raise my mood.

Blizzard say the WoW trial does not count. You must have 1 Blizzard game to have a chance. Supposedly how many games you own or what they are arn't concidered factors in your chances of being selected. Uhm...supposedly - blizzard has the ability to lie just like the rest of the world.

No, I bought the game, but I never extended my subscription past the first month.

I'd like to know what board you have.. anything above 420FSB my Q9550 crashes

I like having all my games on here.. I couldn't find my DIablo II disc for the life of me! I couldn't fine the CD key. I haven't played Diablo II LoD in such a long itme
