By points you mean ladder score or win/loss?

Depleting the time would render you unable to gain experience and other rewards in game. To recover your status, you must stay offline for 5 hours." Just rewording some of the translation to be more colloquial. I'm curious though, is it just the message? Or is the experience/reward penalty also implemented globally? Please update me after 3 hours! | ||

One day you'll show up as a tourist to China to learn that Blizzard signed you up for the social credit system and then sent your score into the abyss through BW binges | ||

Reminded me this chapter from BoxeR's bio, where he was invited to broadcasting station: I received a call from a broadcasting station. When the public broadcasting station asks for me, I spring at the chance. To spread the word about the profession of a progamer, I think that talking even once for a public radio is more effective than going on a gaming cable broadcast. Professional baseball players or soccer players always let themselves be known to the national audience through sports news, and even though progamers are supported by e-sports, they are still at a distance from the public broadcasts. But this phone call was from the public radio morning talk program. What I heard from the writers in charge was that the topic was about game addiction, and they wished to discuss the ways of overcoming game addiction. I decided to go, as I felt it was a good opportunity to let others know about the job of a progamer, as well as expressing my views about game addiction. Besides the fact that it was a morning talk program, the MC, the studio audience, and the listeners were elderly people of my parents’ generation. I anticipated that it would be a bit difficult, but the music artist Chae Rina that liked to play games was there as well, so it seemed that she would be on my side. But when the broadcast began, the atmosphere turned strangely. Suddenly they started talking about cyber-money and asked me, “Is cyber-money worth around 100 million won,” “Are you not addicted to games,” “If one kills another player in a game, do you feel the urge to kill them in real life,” and I was so confounded that I could not speak properly. They had left out the most important discussion about how to solve the problem of game addiction, and continued to ask outrageous questions. I did not even have much time to speak. Rather than asking me questions, they spoke in a “how could you do this” kind of tone, in a reprimanding fashion. Chae Rina, who was there with me, also could say a word. Without being able to say a single thing that I had prepared, I had to come out of the station. We're in 2021 FFS, let ppl do whatever they want and how long they want. How the fuck China can make top progamers by constantly reminding them to not play longer? | ||

Obviously this stuff is far likelier to happen in totalitarian regimes or religion driven cultures and unfortunately it will happen for decades to come in some form or the other. | ||

It's possible that this kind of stuff is an overreaction to those type of incidents. Obviously this stuff is far likelier to happen in totalitarian regimes or religion driven cultures and unfortunately it will happen for decades to come in some form or the other. 2 days you say? I don't know others capabilities but just couple days ago I played straight WoW TBC to prepare for launch and ended up playing 26 hours or so although I cheated a bit by sleeping 2 hours. Think anyone who will try to play 2 days will just end up hitting their head to the desk. In the end, there are jobs which require to be awake for 12 hours and many of them require you to be standing/walking all shift. China should take care about those things not about games. If I die from gaming I definitely can consider myself lucky cause I died as a happy nerd xD | ||

SCMDraft seems to look for rez\epilogx.txt in the game files to detect if the expansion is installed, and it seems like the bad patch deleted this file (probably whoever is working on these new patches didn't know to leave it for this reason). If anyone has contact with the author, may be good to let them know, since it seems likely Blizzard will roll these changes back out in the near future and given that they can't even be bothered to post a single announcement, I doubt they're making any effort to contact anyone either. | ||

If I die from gaming I definitely can consider myself lucky cause I died as a happy nerd xD Certain videogames like Stacraft depending how you play and where can be pure stress. This can lead to death, if you are under stress to long at one point your heart just stops pumping...An other point is probally the fact that the person probally was under a longer stress periode, where he didnt sleep / took to many energy drinks etc. | ||

Starting LAN games still looks to be completely broken, but we're down to 9 Chromium processes for the battle.net interface instead of 24. Unsure how much of the other broken stuff is still there. edit: chat autoscrolling is still broken as well B.net is also still broken not showing the status if a player is in the game, searching or just in chat. (everyone is "online") | ||

Just conjecture though, no real way of determining if that is true. But if one were to put actual effort into upgrading CEF at this point, I'm not sure why you would pick a version that is 2.5+ years old. I don't think that should have resulted in downgrading anything else to whatever they had then (and a number of the changes that broke SB are definitely "forward progress" type of changes and not reverts), but who really knows. At this point they've pushed, reverted, and re-pushed an update that breaks a number of things, with zero communication to even tell us why or who is doing this. edit: Also interesting is that they rolled back this patch *again* last night, but only for Asia. So we're stuck with this shit, but people in Korea are probably on the older (less shitty) patch. | ||

(But note that your friends list is different per region, so it's not really a great fix) | ||
