Well the way I interpret that quote is as if you know something that "you" in that quote which I interpret as "everybody else but you" don't know. But thanks for the answer.

get them drunk and stick them on irc
I actually have some faith in this rumor. Unlike the 11 year anniversary of starcraft's release date rumor, this one actually carries some sort of substance. Blizzard requesting the Bnet accounts of the beta key winners to be sent to them on friday and now a press conference??
We can only wait and see. Does anyone know what time this conference is supposed to be?

I know we all can't wait, but these threads are getting out of hand...

That was the most prominent piece of evidence There's just no denying the change in logos!
But honestly-- I give beta a 10% chance. If that.

Hopefully if the beta does start soon, they let people who were pre-selected (via blizzcon or fansite/journalism or lucky opt-in people) download it before the beta is fully ready so that their servers don't get slammed all at once

That would be really nice, but if you've ever played wow you'd know that Blizzard is awful at this kind of thing.
"regularly scheduled maintenance" on Tuesdays for the wow servers gets extended "unexpectedly" almost every single week, and every patch release is a nightmare.
|
where can we watch the conference? is it being streamed live?
|
I doubt it's being streamed.
|
Doubt it also, considering the info about it was "leaked."
Anyway, expect info to start trickling in 2 hours from now or so, maybe.

Atleast they DO something with their games, even if it is notoriously slow at times, take the good with the bad I suppose.

Nah, I'm pretty sure its a press conference, but a private one. Hopefully they can talk about whatever is announced there soon, assuming the conference.

Why would Blizzard need a press conference to announce a beta? It's not something they've done before afaik?
