Yah but it doesnt mean that Bnet has to be finished. The story could just be about how Blizzard was working on Bnet last night and ordered pizza.Quote:

This brings up and interesting question to me I'd like to ask you all. Blizzard, like any other software development company, has what's considered "crunch time"Quote:

What would they announce at a finicial conference call if its not beta? The gifts probably dont have to do with the conference call.Quote:

Ego, I find it extremely suspicious that:
— your join date is today
— you have only made two posts
— Gifted responded to you and not the others before you
BTW, how are your brothers, Id and Super Ego?
The call is a quarterly thing. The only new thing is that its being streamed over the web...Quote:

I think they could very well be in crunch time. They would need to get hardware together in order to proceed with the next step. I imagine the B.net guys are burning midnight oil (and eating pizzas?)... and so might the QA team(s). It would be a good time to try something like having a large number of concurrent matches going on, or a large number of "users" logged into the new system (maybe a thousand?) all at the same time.
As for how long? Well, I believe the holidays would have been a needed break. Probably the first week of the new year was used for spinning everyone back up on the project. So, maybe starting Jan. 11th? Maybe we should send care packages?
Edit: I joined today because this was too fun to pass up. I have been an SCL lurker since at least May, 2007. I was logging onto the internet from airports yesterday in order to follow the original thread!
Edit 2: I don't know how Id or Super Ego are. Id is too busy eating or fighting, and Super Ego just ignores me :( .
