    isn't the open beta only availble to North Americans or very determined outsiders willing to mask their IP and lie about where they live? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I would trust worldofwarcraft.com over a 404 page on gamespy, personally. And Blizzard hasn't updated it.

    My theory:

    Blizzard: Here you go, Gamespy - here's what you need to distribute WoW Open Beta info to your customers. Wait for the signal.

    Gamespy: Whoa, that looked like a signal! HEY INT4RWEB, WE HAEV WOW BETA OMG!

    Blizzard: OMGWTH M8?! WE SED WAIT 4 THE SIGNAL, ITS NOT TILL 2MORRO!!

    Gamespy: Oh. Our bad.
    ______

    Hence the news item leading to a 404. Short version of above: Gamespy's got the info for the beta, and we're *very* close to getting our grubby little hands on it. (:
