Knowing blizzard, they are probably just now figuring out that maybe you shouldn't plug an entire stage setup into a 15amp circuit.

I'd be disappointed if Blizzard was actually using Perl, but it would explain these issues lol


Of course they're not -- they'd use Visual Basic instead.

You think this downtime is bad? Do you remember Dallas? Or IPL3? Or Blizzcon 2011? Please calm down and wait, eventually everything will be fine.

There's no generator on standby for something like that? At least throw the players a few hundred watts so they can keep playing!


Blizzard spent their UPS budget on free pizzas at the GSL.

It's good to know that Blizzards LAN solution can't actually handle there being internet issues to affect the games...

The Superbowl comparison is not the same thing at all. Superbowl had a power outage. They took a break and fixed it. There were no more problems afterward.


But why didn't they fix it beforehand? I mean, all problems that may arise can be anticipated ahead of time, right? Right?

You cant be serious?
There is a small difference between having a power outage and not getting a computer game to work.
Its not like Super Bowl can protect themselves against earthquakes, tornados or alien attacks either.
But I am quite sure they wont need to cut their production every 8 minutes due to techincal issuses.


Which goes back to my original point of us not knowing what is causing the problem thus making it difficult to judge if it is actually hard to make the tournament run smoothly or not.

I mean sure, if there is a power outage going on over there that nobody can actually control, it's not necessarily the management's fault. But judging by the fact that this has happened a couple times already, I doubt it's a power outage. At some point you have to draw a line for what's unacceptable incompetence based on the circumstances. I agree with the general principle of giving them the benefit of the doubt. I feel like we've crossed that point.

Truer words have never been spoken.


zealously watch the top of the thread for the explanation


I put the note there


so you do know the origin of the failure, and thus you can make a judgement

Quoting the official message by Blizzard:

"Tomorrow we have another day of the 2014 World Championship Series Global Finals and we are committed to working through the night in order to provide the best experience possible."

THIS CREATES THE HUGGEST LOOOOOOOOOOOOL IN THE HISTORY
