[No. I read in a post from Qixter that they will announce when they release or are ready for the Beta. Qixter didn't say how they would pick the people or anything, just that when it is time for the Beta they will announce it.
Edit: Why would they want you to keep it a secret. They'd tell you more clues on it by the time the Beta is out.]
You're makeing an assumption there, my good sir. You're assuming that he had full backing by the people both creating and over seeing the creation of the game, the only reason he 'did' make that post was to try to decrease all the scammers who've cropped up concerning a 'beta test' with the MMO just for them(whoever they message concerning it). But in the end, I don't think it'd be his decision to announce the beta test or not, but someone elses who we don't even know about.... so all in all, a secret hush-hush style beta could be done without anyone even knowing, for all we know it's already going on
And they'd want to keep it a secret so that every little detail of the system isn't known by the public, I mean they 'will' be releasing information about the beta as time goes on, but chances are they'll leave plenty of stuff in the Battle System to give us things to go "ooh cool, didn't know that!" about
