Hi again. So I visited Blizzard and here is what went down. Walked into the lobby after going through the security guard and introduced myself as a dedicated fan of SC2 to the receptionist and asked to speak with someone on the SC2 team about the beta phase 2 launch. I at first got rejected but kept pressing and eventually was able to speak with some manager who only offered that it will be up "soon" and he is not allowed to comment further do to company privacy policies. I was then politely shown the door. Sorry that I could not offer more but you should know their headquarters seems like a great place to work.

For those of you having trouble downloading or are not sure if you are updated you should have patches 16, 17, 18, and 19. 19 is the big one. I had deleted and reuploaded since the beta went down so you have to do the following to get the new updates. Special thanks to Dr4goN and Nick12322. This is exactly what I did:
Step 1: Create a .txt file in your wordpad
Step 2: Type in the following line if you are in Europe: set patchlist eu-beta.patch.battle.net:1120/patch
Type in the following line if you are in the US: set patchlist us-beta.patch.battle.net:1120/patch
Step 3: save it as realmlist.stf and be sure you type in the .stf as that makes it a launch app.
Step 4: Move it to your “Support” folder in your SC2 folder.
Step 5: Launch game and it will download Patch 15 first and then update scripts before downloading the large files for patches 16 to 19.
Step 6: You will see a new screen in the login with a message that system is down for maintenance. Background is changed. Note that the battle.net uploading bar has changed from green to a yellow & black bar.
Not sure if there is a difference for Macs but it should be the same method.
