So here's an idea for a machinima if anyone wants to steal it: Lonely Island- Throw it on the ground with a bunch of Barbarian knockdowns. It'd fit better as a WoW video though. Oh well.
Good luck to everyone. /jelly of whoever wins the alienware.

Seriously, why would you post that right at the top? I trusted you not to post spoilers without warning.

If you mean diablo, that was confirmed almost a year ago back in AUG by blizzard as the last boss...

What happens if nobody manages to kill Diablo by that time? Sounds like a promotional tool not an actual competition.

You should put a BIG SPOILER ALERT at the top of this page and possibly mask the contest, I like many other very long time fans and Hardcore mode players chose not to follow the announcements of Blizzard and fansites because we enjoy playing the game through to find out the lore. Not everyone is interested in learning the story before they see it unfold.
I learned last night the story of a major lore character for the first time and was very surprised. Until I logged in and read the contest details I was not aware that this character was actually going to even be a boss (masking my own statements so others don't have their lore experience wrecked further).
