I'm so disappointed i was not sent a digital copy of a virtual towel, "to tie me over" while waiting for premium beta access. Instead all I got was Alpha 1.1. Hmmmm, updating now.... I wondering what to?

Yeah I did and they couldn't help its just a downside of the conversion of the systems. My actual value is 50 even though I paid 75. If I had backed 100 I'd have been eligible. I can't just pay the difference and upgrade. Sigh .. I want in so bad but I can't afford it right now. I mean I can but I can't justify it over stuff like fixing our lawn mower or diapers

I'm going to shed tears as I watch the live streams

Hey dude, don't worry about it too much. Be patient, and when you join us, we'll be happy to have you! So, go pay for your lawnmower, and those diapers and join us as soon as standard beta is up! It'll be worth the wait (just don't go too crazy with the pirating! It's a slippery slope!!!)
