The schedule for the Worldwide Invitational is now available, we can expect the Diablo 3 big announcement @ 11:45 CEST time. While we wait for the announcement let's bring the teaser to the top of the homepage. Official site teaser/splash screen - Day 5This is the last day before the WWI, the eyes in the middle of the screen really start to look like the Lich King's ... However the creature artwork has been fully uploaded (we're not sure if it's an error or not) and we now have the full picture available. The splash screenThis is the most obvious part of the teaser, a huge picture of a block of ice slowly cracking to reveal what seems to be a face. Each day a rune was added to the ice. - Day 1 - The first rune looks a lot like the one found on the Lich King swords in many official artworks.
- Day 2 - The 2nd rune is the Hel Rune from Diablo 2
- Day 3 - The 3rd rune is the Protoss Symbol found on the Starcraft 2 official site
- Day 4 - The 4th rune hasn't been identified yet, and what looks like the eyes of the lich king appeared in the center of the ice crack.
- Day 5 - A new rune has been added and looks like a viking compass. The eyes started to glow, the creature artwork from the CSS files is now complete. The runes also started to glow, you can compare these screenshots : Screenshot #1 / Screenshot #2

All the screams of "WoW is dying" is just stupid to me. Their numbers keep going up, how do you explain that? Personally I get really tired of WoW, wait let me rephrase that, personally I get tired of the morons I have to put with when I play WoW. Morons who think that they are entitled something, morons who whimper about the old days when they were screaming about how boring MC was and how they wanted to claw their eyes out. I wish you people could hear/read what you say/post sometimes.

there might be some problems with the link setup. While trying out the links on octos website to test the plugin, windows media player opens by default and plays fine. Clicking these links how ever wants me to open up an asf file. manualy choosing media player to be the one to open it, media player complains its an unknown format and cant play it (The difference being, I expected it to attempt to connect and fail. However the current result is not even being able to read the network connection settings from the asf file.)
