I am not sure if the circle method works periodically, not at all, or if there's a bit of confusion - I still seem to be able to get folk in.

Just to recap if I wasn't clear enough:

1) I send out an invite
2) You get an email - when you click the link in this email, it tells you capacity is exceeded
3) I send a post directly to you saying "Hi this is kurtrussell from neogaf - have fun!"
4) You get an email notification of the post
5) When you click the find out more about google+ link in that notification email, it may or may not let you in!

Not sure if I am supposed to get a message about step 1 and 2, but I got your email from step 4 and I can't get in.

Definitely appreciate the effort, hopefully they let more of us in!
 
if you need an invite pm me!
also try invites to different emails if you can't get in. the invite doesn't seem to be bound to the email it got sent to.
it worked for me with a different email
 
I have now received 58 email addresses and
sold them all to multiple email marketing lists
added them all to MicroGAF. Even if capacity is exceeded, hopefully when you do get in, you'll be able to view all the MicroGAF posts that have been commented on by the people who did get in - giving you an instant source of GAFfers to play with...

Ah I wish it would let me in!

Yeah, I too went straight to 4. tried clicking on everything and went to same page. I'm guessing I just have to wait until the invites from 1 get officially sent. Oh well.
 
I dunno if these email addresses are your primaries, but I wouldn't post any e-mail address in a public forum. You will get spammed. Just a matter of time before the addresses are skimmed out of this thread.
 
Well, if they closed the loophole, I tried... sorry for those who didn't get in. At least when you do, you'll be able to hook up with a ton of GAFfers - just look for the people commenting on my welcome GAF thread thing.
 
Well, it seems two gaffers I added to a circle and sent messages through G+ were able to get in

Thanks for trying though. I'll definitely add you once I get it!
 
I'm hesitant to post my email address openly on a forum where anyone can snatch it, but if you have an invite to spare I'd happily take one.

Perhaps we can take via PM instead?

Yeah no problem. Thanks for the attempt. I have a feeling it will go through, just not until Google decides its time to admit more people.
 
I got one more gmail account to try haha (it hasnt worked on the other 2)if anyone wants to hook it up I have a udid slot for the iOS beta to sweeten the deal.

How would I go about finding that, since I was invited by someone else?

(I'm in, just want some more GAFers to talk to!)
 
People who can't get in - try again... it just came up on my twitter feed about 5 minutes ago that there will no longer be any invites issues to G+, and instead everyone is invited when something is shared with them via a circle....

So keep trying :)

In theory, if everyone keeps reposting the original thread, and then everyone on THEIR gaf circle comments on that repost, and adds folk, and reposts the repost etc etc then before long we should all have each other in a sort of viral chain-letter type way.

Basically, anyone who replied to my original thread was already in my MicroGAF. I then added anyone who replied to the reposts of my original thread. I'm hoping if everyone is this proactive, we'll all get everyone between us....

Nice!! Very nice.
 
So how do I find and join the gaf stream? I'm currently cybering with a couple of dudes not knowing wth is going on lol
 
Still getting the "Already invited? We've temporarily exceeded our capacity. Please try again soon." message :( Come on Google, let me in.
 
Well, figured I'd give it until overnight, but looks like my invite isn't gonna take. Should I be continuing to try and see if my invite will convert over to an active Google+ account today/tomorrow, or should I stop wasting my time refreshing plus.google.com?
