-			<h1>Dicecloud Beta</h1>
-			<p>Welcome to the Dicecloud beta.</p>
-			<p>The beta is going to start with just the character sheet. You can play D&amp;D without minis and maps, without a pre-written adventure, you can play without a lot of things, but the character sheet is necessary. So I'm starting here and working my way outwards.</p>
-			<p>Leave any comments, feedback and suggestions on <a href="http://reddit.com/r/dicecloud">this subreddit</a>. If you've never used reddit before, all you need is a username and password to sign up. So it should be pretty accessible.</p>
-			<p>If you'd like to see a list of known issues and upcoming features, check out the <a href="https://trello.com/b/94M0SCnq/dicecloud-roadmap">DiceCloud Roadmap</a>.</p>
 			<h2>Character Sheet Philosophy</h2>
 			<p>Setting up your character on Dicecloud is going to take you a little longer than just filling it in on a paper character sheet would have. The goal of using an online sheet is to make actually playing the game more streamlined, and ultimately more fun. So putting a little extra effort into setting up your character now will pay off over and over again once you're playing.</p>
 			<p>The idea is to track where each number comes from, and allow you to easily make changes on the fly.</p>
