Would I be able to use a beta key even if I don't have a Battle.net account?
That is a good question. There are several options, and by several I mean 2.
1. They are actual keys, so yes. You just need to create a new account and Blizz would have to have added a field for people to enter keys into.
2. They are not actual keys and Force has somehow managed to make a "contract" with Blizzard so that he informs them who won the keys and they flag his account for Beta access.
The first option sounds a lot more reasonable. But in the end the people that can answer this are the Diablofans' staff, since they say they have keys as well, so they are already aware of how the system will work.
Great, thanks. Now all that's left is actually getting a beta key.
As per your question above, while you don't need a game to make an account, you do need a game to be eligible for a beta invite. Any game on their store will suffice.
Well, as one of many that left a comment on youtube to get a chance, and can't be bothered to jump through any more hoops at Force's whim, here's to you Force:

I don't hate my parents, I don't get drunk just to spite them.
I have my own reasons to drink, I think I'll call my Dad up and invite him.
1) Force gets an e-mail with some keys he can give away.
2) Force gets excited and quickly throws together a video for the contest with the first idea he comes up with.
3) Force doesn't realize the sheer number of comments that will easily destroy a YouTube video in a matter of an hour.
4) Force has to take the video down (or more likely he was asked to stop).
5) Force has to come up with another way to do it, thinks about it more carefully, uses Twitter.
Makes sense to me. Twitter allows you to have easy access to a list of followers (no matter how big the list is) without crashing or overloading anything.
In retrospect, I'm sure he was thinking he did this in the first place, even though YouTube is his natural habitat he should have realized the limitations.
Not really sure why people are getting all butthurt over this. If you don't like Twitter don't use it. Random selection is better than picking and choosing anyway.
We should have a 100m race. I knew all that training was for something.

Ha. Bagstone.
Of course, you don't need a blizzard game to have a blizzard account. No problem
The same for all of us.

But it would make more sense to have a 'real contest'...
Unless the contest qualifies certain skills; like artistic skills, programming skills, Starcraft 2 skills, etc.

Thank you for expressing yourself.
That said, GTFO.
