Plain and simple question who invited you to Spiral Knights?

I was invited by, Azura. (Played Rs with her, and sent me an invite since she was busy killing monsters in Sk, and well I asked her why she not playing Rs, and she sent me an invite glad she did tbh).

I read an article on Kotaku that was giving away free invites...all gone by the time I click the link of course...so I googled Spiral Knights invite giveaways with the latest search option selected. Sent me to the Twitter account and I got signed up...also go my wife to sign up. She didn't like it from the intro and tutorials, but she saw me playing last night and was like "That looks fun! That's not what I was playing!" So now she's gonna start up again Friday.

kotaku article

I saw the kotaku article too, thats where I ended up getting the invite code from. I was surprised it wasn't all used up yet, I think I caught the post when it was pretty new, and I think the code was good for like 500 signups or something. Glad I did though, enjoyed the preview!

I was also auto invited at the beginning of the preview in October, since I participated in previous preview events in Jan 2010 and... was it October 2009?

I looked for register codes

I looked for register codes after I heard of the game on Kotaku and didn't have anything else to do... I'm glad I started playing this game and looked for codes (specific links) to play.

Saw an article about SK on Ars Technica while reading about Japan's Fukushima Dai-ichi reactor meltdowns. Then searched around for an active invite link. How's that for a strange way to start playing a video game?

I was invited by a friend

I was invited by a friend that never even ended up playing much, even tho he was ALL EXCITED about the game. Funny how that works, specially since now I keep him informed on whats going on in the game.

LOL also crazzy makes me laugh. He's been here since 3/16/2011 and he thinks Sega invited him to the "first" Beta, even tho Sega had nothing to do with the game up till recently. Haha, this kid got dropped on his head wayyy to many times. Cant wait to read what off the wall stuff he comes up with next.

Ars Technica gave out 500

Ars Technica gave out 500 invites. I got in late in the game, but I did help out the devs by giving them $10. They "helped" me by giving me 10,000 CE in a random giveaway one night. I helped everyone by giving CE to anyone that needed it.

Going to miss that come launch.

From Ars Technica to Twitter

I read the article where Ars Tech gave out the 500 invites. Not surprisingly they were all gone by the time I clicked the link. So I started reading the comments to see what others thought of the game. From there I learned that 1) The invites were gone in about 2 hours and 2) someone linked to the SK twitter that had a working signup link.

no buddy wanted me here,

I just found a link on google. /sob.
though, when you get down to who's responsible for me joining (as the case would be, the one who made me know of this game) : Cobalt, who had mention of SK on their profile in whirled (one of three rings other games, fyi.)

Same as Magnus (sans the enigma)

He made a thread looking for some steam friends, and I was the only one that sent him an invite, as far as he informed me.
We talked a bit, he mentioned Spiral Knights.
