Hopefully blizz's next game has a more lay back attitude like battle net used to be.
In wow if you said a swear word in chat you'd be slapped with a 3 day ban or worse its really lame when games have to be politically correct games are all about testosterone and psyching the opposition out. Swearing is half the fun.
Though bviously there will still be some people unhappy with it. There always is. People are thinking its a DIII announcement, but MD has said against it. No matter what he says, they will believe what they want to believe, so they will likely be disappointed.
It might be something as simple as Blizzard granting "Blizzard Approved" status to a network of Diablo 3 fansites.
Such approval would indicate that Diablo III is somewhere along the path of development, and all of those sites might also link to one another.
and remember, they said that there wasn't even gonna be a countdown, so Umaro was gonna be holding back either way, its just that this way we know that he's holding back something.
Wow, less than 12 hours since I last visited this thread and 20+ pages to read.. =p
Anyway, I'll just summarize my opinions on the main events since page 110...
Shadowy picture: An angel (my thoughts are on Tyrael or Inarius)
Brazilian website: well it is actually a renown Diablo website here and they have had that countdown begun for a while now... I don't know if there's any connection to what will happen soon, so just wait for a little while
Urtigae's posts: either the man is a poet, a prophet or something similar or he seems to know too much (not saying he does)
Theory of the announcement of the announcement: Not impossible but hardly probable;
MD said something about emails and stuff so we're possibly receiving the news by mail, instead of being posted here (preventing a server crash I suppose...) and also said on mIRC that it was blizz who stepped forward first.. thus it's something substantial we're getting despite the kind of news, also they seem not to be bothered with the fact they're (and maybe other people who may also know of this) sharing this information with the other fans... so I'd like to say: "Bring it on May 1st"
This waiting game is no fun, I wish May 1st was right now, But good point Angellium...I wonder if we will all get emails or if it will be posted on the site, I think email would be better to prevent a server crash!!!
I just hope all this hype and everything is leading to a announcement atleast of D3 or something in the wake. I dont want to wait anymore, just release the damn thing lol
<Umaro> in 48 hours the site will eb down

That's the Diabo II trailer.

Umaro is holding it back. Doesn't make much sense to me either, but I am guessing they wanted a clean date for the site to be transferred.
and remember, they said that there wasn't even gonna be a countdown, so Umaro was gonna be holding back either way, its just that this way we know that he's holding back something.
j/k
Sorry I'm getting a little emotional.

I wanted to inform you that I had forgotten this handy piece of advice whilst preparing for work this morning. I now regret it.
