Just checking. Apple said that people would start being notified of being chosen to get a Developer Kit on the 14th. So what's the word, anyone get notified yet they've been selected?
Anyone Notified of Developer Kit Selection?
I just recieved confirmation of mine (U.S. - Ohio) 🙂
Was kind of hoping it was on a first come first serve basis, since I registered for one less than 30 seconds after I got the initial email 😁.
Lucky.
Do they send out emails if you're not selected?
No e-mail yet here (Massachusetts) - bummer! Holding out hope they're just doing it in waves...
Fingers crossed that they're in waves.
I got a golden ticket too. We've been a developer of money generating apps for a long long time, if that's how they're doing it. Otherwise, maybe just good luck.
Don't think it has to do with money generating apps, mine generated as much to buy me a few happy meals at mcdonals over the last few years 😀 So it'll be probably be just luck as I've been also selected.
For all those selected, could you post a link to apps, to see if it is truly just luck, or maybe if it's some with a certain number of apps?
Sounds to me like it is random.
As with most things related to Apple + Devs it is all luck. Consider the featuring process, it is pretty much luck of the draw. I have been featured a couple of times, had a banner once, and other times nothing.
I think they do it to be as fair as possible.
EDIT: I have not been selected.
I got one! Ordered. So happy about this.
Got one, Denmark
Good on you 🙂 (didn't get one -Denmark)
Did you receive a notice that you were not selected?
Congrats to everyone who got selected!
