Not sure if this is the right subforum, appologies if not.
Hi all
I pre-ordered a week or so ago, and got a key fine.
I later pre-ordered for a paypal-less friend. The paypal contact email was the same as the previous pre-order. However this time, the email I received was;
<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Thanks for pre-ordering the Special Edition of NS2!

Listed below is your game key(s), which you will need to play.

#keyText

You will be e-mailed at #payerEmail when the game is ready for you to download and play. In the meantime, learn more about NS2 and our development process at <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2" target="_blank">http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2</a> .

Thanks for your support!<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Exactly as quoted; with "#keytext" instead of an actual serial.

Known issue? Anything I can do to fix this?

    I got the exakt same mail, no key at all :S Payment went through and all.
    Some bug or are the keys just not available yet? I dont really care when I get my key(s),
    as long as I get to play Alpha and Beta as well as the real game :P

    Oh maybe this is a problem on this new server? Did you guys order in the past 24 hours or so?

    I will fix this today. Please do write me at charlie@unknownworlds.com with your Paypal e-mail address if you still need a key. Sorry!

    This fixed it ^.
    Didn't realise there was an NS2 faq separate from forums. Still, well done pSyk0mAn for finding it all on your own. :P

    Hey guys,

    There's a proper NS2 key retrieval script now, just go here:

    <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/retrieve" target="_blank">http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/retrieve</a>

    I will now send keys for everyone that that got this "#keytext" error. Sorry for the trouble!
