Server Shutdown, wipe commencing 1 pm est

[SinsWage]

We were in the middle of a great game when they shut it down

And the "wipe" part is speculation based on the front page article.

The game is patching now as of 1:20 pm est. Patch notes say Patch 11 again however.

WHAT? I just broke the 1550 points I've been stuck at for a week. Damnit! Hopefully I can get back there quickly.

Is it already over? I just download a patch. The patch downloader said it was version 0.13.0.15250 which is patch 11. However, I got a new firewall unblock request and the executable was 15343. I can connect to battlenet too.

and I was I.....I this close to Pro league in 2vs2

[Skyze]

there is no pro league.. -_- how would you be close?

I wonder how that "pro league" is gonna work.. if its top 8 of each division in platinum, thats stupid.. For example, I was in a weak division where I was 400 points ahead of #2, yet I might not be top 10 in certain divisions.
