So guys. I just got alpha, and this post is for Jaden so he can get Alpha himself. (I am also going to post the link for our MegaCorp classic server) *STEPS* 1. Go to minecraft.net 2. You should see the alpha thing right above the classic links.. Click either Download or In browser 4. It should take you to a page where is says you need to buy alpha, if there is a "BUY NOW" button Go ahead and click it. 5. It will redirect you to a paypal page where you should need to login. 6. IF YOU ARE ALREADY LOGGED IN, don't worry about it lol. 7. Proceed with the purchase and the steps that might be listed on the PayPal sight. ********CLASSIC SERVER URL******* www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?server=fb9ff3abe5ce4cdae1b082b0b91c4c4f-Enjoy!-

I understand how to do it, just that I would rather not go through paypal. I'm sure there isn't anything wrong with it but I think I will wait till I can just use my credit card. And I think that from what Notch said that it would be soon after the Halloween update that this would be possible.

You're going to be waiting an awfully long time if you wait for that, because writing software that verifies credit card info and makes transactions isn't exactly easy... or possible at all, for most people, including Notch. Hence why services like PayPal or Google Checkout exist.

And I have use Google checkout too to buy Zen Magnets, so its not like I have anything against it. Just that I would think it as easier to not have to. And on the subject of it not being easy to set up I believe that Notch might be close, from what I read in his blog linked here. But you may be right and it take longer than he expects as well.

You don't have to have a PayPal account to use your credit/debit card with it.
