Yeah but then why did Blizzard decide to use a NDA only after the "conference" started ?
If they knew they would invite a lot of fansite/press during the week, it should have been clear that they would need a NDA and not wait...

What would be the point of that? It'd be easier just to get everyone to sign at the event, seeing as how everyone's already present. Plus, you don't need to bother yourself with figuring out whether or not everyone present signed it.

They didn't - apparently everyone signed a NDA as they were walking in and no one bothered to read it.... In their defence, they signed one last year too but it was basically just a formality as they immediately reported on it when they left with no issues.

Ultimately it's our fault since we signed it but i think it has been sorted out.
Kinda strange that it happened the very next day again with at least a couple korean sites.

I don't know if today is the last day.

I can add that the biggest french-speaking fansite is going to Blizzard's HQ today or tomorrow too (he did not confirm, but said something like "I'm not there but I can't tell you where I go" :p).


As I heard it Monday was for USA, Tuesday for Asia and Wednesday for Europe. This seems to be pretty much confirmed as we know the USA gamesites went on Monday, some koreans posted stuff yesterday and your french friend went today.

So its about time to break the NDA.

Lol, that is almost the worst reasoning i've ever heard :p "these guys went, then these guys did, then these guys did, and these guys broke their NDA" --> "this means, since we are no longer there we are not subject to their NDA" Orrr... we could try not breaking the NDA, and just go en-mass to other sites and get THEM to break the NDA? Personally not in the mood to get a cease and desist letter all because we couldn't be bothered waiting...
100% Pure.

No I'm saying its time for Blizzard to break the NDA. People say Blizzard made the NDA to give members of the media visiting late in the week a fair chance to report what they see. Since now all members of the media have visited, there is no reason to hold the NDA all the way to Monday.

This is false. It is a commonly known fact that Starcraft 2 Beta will be on July 17th - Well before Blizzcon.

how do u know this information? If im not mistaken, they did not state the reason for the NDA, so this would not mean a thing. However, LR did say they could talk till Monday.

I wish we had video-game ads in Australia.
Actually I remember seeing War3 ads, but that was (of course) ages ago. We do get console ads though. Maybe we will get StarCraft 2 ads, who knows :\

Probably not, although that would be cool. The only ads I've seen for PC games on TV are the Sims, the rest are all Wii games, and the most repeated one has to be Pokemon.
