Microsoft won't let you choose which Xbox One goes in the Alpha ring
The most active Insiders get to be in the Preview Alpha ring, which is the one that got the Creators Update preview. When Microsoft selected the Insiders that were eligible, it chose which console would be the one on the Alpha ring, not selecting the one that's used most frequently. Naturally, Insiders that have multiple consoles would have preferred to be able to choose which one is in Alpha themselves.
That's now changing. Due to feedback, Microsoft has decided to allow Insiders that have been selected for the Preview Alpha to choose which consoles are enrolled in it.
Remember, while you can activate up to ten consoles, if Microsoft finds that you're inactive, it can remove you from the Alpha ring. Also, keep in mind that once moving to a new ring, it can take up to 72 hours to actually happen.

Just to let you guys know. I have been a beta and alpha tester for microsoft within the past. The creators update is not bad at all but there is a lot of issues with it also. From what it seems there may be another 1-4 months before the actual update comes, which includes the creator ui. I cannot go into specific detail as of what it looks like and how it works as I will be terminated from being a tester xD
