Hello, that is a good question you have. I have wanted to post an updated about this on indiegogo for a long time, but never got the time to do it. I will do it today or tomorrow :)

In short the situation is as follows:

1. All the people who backed the game on Indiegogo will have their Free Tester accounts migrated to the appropriate member tier. People who don't have accounts will receive emails with upgrade codes.
2. People who buy the game in the preorder on our site get the appropriate member tier immediately.
3. The free testing vouchers we have sent out (via youtubers or on the forums) might be discontinued in the future. We haven't made a decision about this one yet.

Hope this helps.

I noticed I received 4 Noreply emails just almost an hour ago, with nothing inside of them.
With only the subject "Factorio Account Upgrade"

And when I log in onto my factorio account, still says "Free Tester".

I wonder what that is all about :roll:
