Realm Restarts Scheduled — Wednesday May 1
The Cataclysm Classic Pre-Expansion Patch is Now Live
Developer Thoughts - Plunderstorm Game Mode and Feedback
Rank the Dragonflight Dungeons (beyond knee-jerk reactions)
MMO-Champion
I figured if no announcement by 5pm PST, then I would be no longer hype for this "announcement".

They generally put the Blizzcon opening ceremony (the time frame when the biggest announcements will be made and maximum coverage) at 10 am / 11 am PT. This lines up perfectly for them, because that is 2 pm/3 pm on the east coast, and supper time/early evening in Europe. They did the same thing with the Gamescon announcement - set it in the late evening in Germany so that it would be the middle of the day in New York and middle of the morning in Los Angeles.

Anyone know what happened to that Human Male Romancer guy?
Really want him to be in Legion to make more novels and Nobbel do some more funny videos about him.

But, if the announcement is so "big", they can make it when in California is morning! So they can reach american and european players as well. Originally Posted by Seramore

Bleh, the one night I can't stay on late, and there's so much going on. Ah well, seems I'll have interesting things to log in to tomorrow. #hype

As you're there, tell him next time that saying something is a 'major announcement' tends to get hype, and even the most simple of minds would grasp that. Originally Posted by Unrealdrone

Confirmed it was only for attention, he's not ready to confirm that he's a fraud because people will rip him a new one. Originally Posted by Unrealdrone

Called it. Whoever brought up sparty in this thread is to blame. When a nobody on twitch says they have a big announcement that means it is big relative to them. Originally Posted by Unrealdrone

They usually announce things like alpha, ptr, and whatnot around 6pm PST if my memory serves me right. Because I am usually freaking out at the start of raid and not paying attention to it!

Well, ya think? I mean, what did he think was going to happen? "Blizzard will make an announcement this afternoon involving Warcraft" and there's very, very few things people will assume about it.
You have to be cognizant about who you are in that it was within the real of possibility there would be something for Legion. Originally Posted by Unmerciful Conker

So they plan the opening ceremony around EU, rather than the fact it starts the first full day of blizzcon and thats a good time for it? Originally Posted by Tiberria

No, it's not. Some things it's considered, they're a US based company and i'm pretty sure US timing is first and foremost.

Looks like nothing at all is going on yet. Build isn't up and the Sparty guy was full of shit. Originally Posted by Caerule

Then you say 'To me', moreso when everyone is talking to you and asking you about it. He just fed off of the hype rather than trying to stop it. Originally Posted by Therougetitan
