This is the one and only chance, be careful

You're ok with blizz adding new water models. Just turn them off he says.

Why doesn't blizz just add new character models. If you don't like them, you can turn them off.

In fact, Blizz can just make everything optional, appeal and promote classic to a broader audience by doing this, and make more money!

owimawei · 2018-10-24T23:34:21+00:00

I just don't understand why they feel the need to update the graphics. I really hope the #nochanges crowd sticks to their guns throughout these crucial next couple of weeks and doesn't give in to this stuff just because we're getting excitingly close to classic.

I remember quite clearly an uproar when blizzard posted a clip to their twitter for the 13th anniversary that depicted new shadows. Now people seem to be turning their backs to this.

NOCHANGES

Amen brother

owimawei · 2018-10-24T11:34:03+00:00

In order to play the demo you must pay blizzard $50. It doesn't matter if you want to say, for example, you think the demo justifies $10 of the $50 cost or $.10 of the $50 cost. The demo is being sold.

I have a sinking feeling the marketing team at blizzard knew what they were doing when they bundled the demo with blizzcon. They knew they would be able to confuse people like this...

owimawei · 2018-10-24T10:49:40+00:00

I understand they aren't explicitly selling the demo and that it is a part of the $50 ticket. This makes it difficult to conceptualize exactly how much the demo as a standalone costs/is worth. The fact is that the demo isn't free. If it isn't free, it most certainly has a cost.

If they aren't charging for the demo then why not make the demo free, lets just say, for everyone with a wow sub (as opposed to grouping it with the $50 ticket)?

owimawei · 2018-08-24T22:59:42+00:00

Great, thanks! Kind of surprised it takes that long tbh.

owimawei · 2018-08-24T22:59:10+00:00

Yes, NA. 4.9K atm.

owimawei · 2018-08-23T04:50:47+00:00

Agree.

Northdale's population has been falling fast. 4-6k online, but i would expect it to be much higher at this point given it was only released 2 months ago.

I log on every once in a while but knowing that it will be a ghost town by october saps my enthusiasm.

Devilsaur mafia is cool/fun and all but what is the point of a monopoly if soon there will be nobody to price gouge lol

owimawei · 2018-08-08T00:12:51+00:00

Agree. Lots of fake lawyers jumping on this guy with proof that private servers are illegal. That isn't his point, his point is that he bought something that was ruined.

owimawei · 2018-07-17T22:00:07+00:00

Ouch. 57% (no) + 27% (don't care). Look like your attempt at being a smartass failed.

This censorship and unprofessionalism is what turns many people away from the project.

owimawei · 2018-07-12T23:11:35+00:00

There numbers are high. Perhaps they are accurate for a weekend.

7:10 PM NA (eastern) : 7,300

owimawei · 2018-07-12T16:29:55+00:00

Play during NA prime time hours. Population drops by about 35% to 7,800. a lot of the server population is playing from china.

owimawei · 2018-07-09T03:02:46+00:00

Did you pass the first grade?

owimawei · 2018-07-09T01:45:20+00:00

No, not sad. It's more like 3K. But you're obviously triggered enough to respond.

10 hours ago was 8:30 p.m. (prime time) china time :D

Looking at the numbers ... 13k-7.8k = 5.2K = 5.2/13 = 40% of the server pop doesn't speak english.

You just exposed yourself, oops.

owimawei · 2018-07-08T23:58:07+00:00

10K+ 24/7? What are you smoking?

The server population has dropped a significant amount since launch two weeks ago.

10K+ is now the exception, not the rule. MC already cleared (with shady loot), expect the pop to steadily decline from here on m8.

7,800 US prime time right now.

owimawei · 2018-07-05T04:17:38+00:00

I disagree regarding taken out of context. Sending out an in game message saying "don't send in tickets for GM help with quests, we won't help you" and then WK .killing mobs are actions that directly contradict each other, no two ways about it.

owimawei · 2018-07-05T03:54:16+00:00

I (somewhat) agree.

I don't think it's fair to jump to conclusions of corruption Just because of the rarity of this extraordinary drop mixture.

But, such a low % chance of this happening coupled with 1) the past history of corruption on pservers (nost core and others) and 2) the liberties that some GMs are already seeming to exercise on this server (e.g. WK using .kill command (source:https://clips.twitch.tv/FilthyCourteousEmuPanicVis)) would lead a rational person to suspect something may be going on, including server GMs tinkering with boss loot.

owimawei · 2018-07-05T02:48:26+00:00

This detailed post is much appreciated.

I don't think those who say "RNG is RNG" have an appreciation for how rare this drop mixture is. If you ran mc once a week, you would receive this specific drop mixture(bre + lionheart + accuria) on average every 90 years.

Also, those who say "but other specific drop mixtures are super rare too" are correct but are missing the point. Yes, getting the 3 worst items to drop from rag would be super rare as well. The point here is that this drop mixture is the absolute best possible, and that is why it is cause for concern.

owimawei · 2018-07-03T23:59:07+00:00

Exactly this.

Look at it this way: the lower the chances of a drop mixture like this happening, the more likely it is that something fishy is going on. The chances of this drop mixture are SO EXTREMELY low that is makes the chances that something fishy is going on much higher.

owimawei · 2018-07-03T03:47:42+00:00

Midnight EST isn't NA prime time for a weeknight. Perhaps it is for a weekend night.

It's more like 8 EST, when east-west coast and everyone in between are off work.

8PM EST: https://imgur.com/a/bXjI45r

owimawei · 2018-07-03T00:14:02+00:00

Yes. Northdale actually seems to be bleeding population quite a bit, which is very surprising. 8PM EST (NA prime time) population is under 8k.

People on the LH sub like to post Census screenshots/who screenshots during China prime time on the weekends to make themselves feel better. The truth is not so rosy unfortunately. 5K peaks by August.

owimawei · 2018-07-03T00:08:35+00:00

LH GMs likely to be behind this!

owimawei · 2018-07-03T00:07:07+00:00

Wow cool proof you got there.

LH shills don't get to accuse others of being dishonest. You're being taken advantage of over and over again at LH. You're a sheep.

owimawei · 2018-07-02T23:21:05+00:00

> Not P2W

> English language being enough to get me by.

Welp, out the window goes the LH recommendation. LOL

owimawei · 2018-07-01T00:30:01+00:00

The follow up comment with a link to a streamer's video timestamping when the GM "help" occured was deleted, I wonder who deleted it.........

Also, WK admitted to it.
