Invite cycle Alpha already in beta a long time Kind of 1year

There is only a limited number of free slots in Alpha/Alpha Skip Ahead.

If someone in Alpha/Alpha Skip Ahead leaves, or is removed due to inactivity, participants in Beta are invited to Alpha. However, Beta participant invitations are sent out to those, that leave valuable feedback, find bugs, and are most active in the beta
group.

So it's not how long you are in the program, but how valuable your input and bug reporting was in the past.

Added to the fact that invitations are only sent out if there is new room in Alpha, you might have to wait a while to get invited. Just provide good feedback and be patient.

Alpha/Alpha skip ahead is as far as i know by invite only. You should been an insider for a long time and give proper feedback to the builds.

The level and time you spend in the program doesn't count for access to the Alpha group.

There is only a limited space for Alpha participants. If an existing Alpha participant leaves the Alpha group, or gets removed due to inactivity, Beta participants with a good activity record get an invitation.

It depends on the activity, and the quality of the feedback you sent while in the Beta ring if you get an invitation.

So there are two factors for getting an invitation.

You can't influence the first factor: Free space in the Alpha group. You will have to be patient and wait for someone to leave or be removed due to inactivity.

But the second factor, sending quality feedback and participating in the quests, will raise your chance to get an invitation in case a slot in the Alpha group becomes free.

So don't give up. Continue to give good feedback, and have patience.

We Beta ring insiders don't wait that long to get updates after Alpha ring. Just keep giving good feedback about bugs and features, and I'm sure you'll be invited soon.

Avatar (beta) is Alpha SA, Alpha, Beta and Delta subset at this point in time
