A Few Hours Left of the Anniversary Buff
The Magic Find Buff that was up for a week since Diablo III's first anniversary is expiring in a few hours. The Community Managers on the Official Forums were kind enough to remind the players that this is the moment to make the best of it. The buff was extended with one day because of community's attachment to it, but despite the petitions and numerous pleas, the buff is going away in just a few hours.

Just as a reminder for all players, the Diablo III anniversary buff will expire in the Americas on Thursday, May 23, at 9:00 a.m. Pacific (12:00 p.m. Eastern).

For those of you with characters in our other gameplay regions, the buff will be disable on Wednesday, May 22, at 5:00 p.m. Pacific in Asia and on Thursday, May 23, at 12:00 a.m. Pacific in Europe.

Note: We elected to extend the buff by 1 day, so this time frame is bit later than we first communicated. Apologies for any confusion, but yay for another day of demon-slaying buffs!



Matching System for Public Games
The logic by which players are matched in public games remains a mystery for most of the users that choose to play this way. There is, however, a system and the matching is not a random process, as Grimiku explained on the Official Forums.

There is a system that matches players with available games as some of the other posts in this thread have mentioned, but sometimes that system takes a little bit to fill the open spots in a public game.

I thought about that, but i don't have a second monitor to use, i wish this game had the feature wow has, where you can set it so you can hear your game even if it's minimized in the background.
That's good feedback, and I'll be sure to pass it along. Thanks!
