Sooooo awesome, feell like a little school girl on prom night!! Can't wait till tomorrow, might pull an allnighter for old times sakes, what time us eastern does wwi kick off?!?
The reason it only works up to 6 is probably because the forum-script which converts the number (for example, 3) to roman number (in this case, III) isn't coded to work with higher numbers than 6, so it fails.
It's being covered on a variety of big gaming news sites today (Destructoid, Kotaku, etc.), so there's no reason why we can't discuss it here while we wait for more news to come in from MD over at the WWI.
I think the point is that it has already been discussed to death for hundreds of pages already in the previous threads. x_x
It seems strange how everyone shot down the anouncment so quickly, It seems liek mockery would post something legit.
I said in the post that it might just be a forum bug, but I saw no reason why we couldn't all have fun discussing it in the meantime while we waited for MD's next update from Paris since other big gaming news sites were talking about it as well.

Ah ok, thanks for the info. Odd they wouldn't code it to convert all numbers though, don't you think?
Im with Mockery, this whole thing is a smokescreen created as a reaction to someone discovering a 'closed' Diablo 3 forum when searching through the address bar. I dont think any of the other options that have appeared since were functional at the time so hold on to your horses gentlmen!!
I honestly feel this is a cover up for the original find of the d3-general 'forums are down' error. It appears people caught on while they were preparing for the release and they attempted to downplay it.
For those whom may not know, this started out with a simple error when navigating to d3-general and the only other site that did it was wow-general, not even d4-general.
All these people smack talking the freaking webmaster of this site. !! Have some respect, or at least look at the person's title before you go off and start flaming some one. If it weren't for people like Mockery, we wouldn't have places like this to discuss these games.

There is a place on Earth for all God's creatures...... right next to the mashed potatoes and gravy...^_^
It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.
I cannot belive it!
the time is come, finally.
Warcraft IV Ghost General Discussion
Warcraft V Ghost General Discussion? etc?
o.O
and how come it doesnt recognize
sc3 or sc4 when it recognizes d3 and d4?
Couldn't agree more. At the very least move it to the Diablo Chat board.
its at 5:45 AM EST

Diablo III General forums would obviously be the general forums for D3
Now why is there a 4,5, and 6?
Well those could be sorts of sub-forums or they could be different language forums as they have for SC2.
THE REAL QUESTION IS.....
Did these forums exist previously before WWI was announced?
