Also, I totally slept through the PTR build and am still groggy as hell so excuse the bad wording/typos. Not looking into the specifics of the feature either as thats too public dataminey (and I'm hungry/still sleepy). Let me know if any of you use this feature, though!

Strings in the new PTR build mentioning Chinese realms are unavailable after the 23rd and implying 10.0.5 is releasing before that (to give players some time to download the "progression data"). Crap situation for Chinese players either way, but good that they're offering this.

I should've seen this one coming but didn't expect it for some reason. Pretty wild to think Google-fu is going to turn into Prompt-fu (which is much closer to plain language) as well as it just answering stuff instead of having to look for good results.

An underrated way to attract great engineers to your company
(drumroll)
Have a great engineering blog.
This means ENGINEERS write the blog, not content writers. And they give the "real deal" about challenges, learnings, failures.
So few companies do this. A few that do:

Happy new year from GMT+1!
So far so good.

This isn't the best time of year for everyone, so regardless of how you're spending it; each one of you deserves happy holidays and a stellar 2023.
I hope you can be yourself or become the person you want to be. Don't care what others think, live your life as you please.

For the 89% of the people who voted yes on this poll, I said I would deliver this before the end of the year and as it is now December 31, this is what I have so far.
I might add more after more thinking, but I think this covers most of the reasoning. ♥

Implave's video made me reflect on shelving @WoWdotTools/public datamining. Nothing has changed as the negatives still outweigh the positives but I have coherent enough thoughts now to write a few pages about it.
Am doing this for myself, but would you care/read if I posted it?

I had very low expectations going into #StarTrekProdigy with it being animated/Nickelodeon but I can happily say that it was actually a pretty fun watch that gets to the core of what Star Trek is. Just wish it had a higher budget as some bits looked very janky. Bring on season 2!

I thought maybe, just maybe, they'll surprise drop a Christmas special, but then I remembered it is the BBC and there would be riots in the streets if the scheduling isn't what it's announced to be.
Soooo... trailer?

Damn, #ViolentNight is a truly great Christmas movie. Props to for being an amazing Santa. Wouldn't mind a sequel!

And there's the kill by Liquid! Gz!
Having watched both raid lead streams throughout being stuck in bed/on the couch, Echo performed the best and Liquid had the best vibes throughout. All in all a great race, looking forward to the next race (with hopefully less hotfixing).

If you are shit talking another guild because that guild won/loss and you are trying to "defend" your favorite guild by shit talking, then you are truly not a fan of your favorite guild. Just sayin'.

VOD timestamp of the above because some people are still being drama frogs: twitch.tv/videos/1686939
Gonna mute this thread now as I'm still sick, but this was fun edition to watch (I've been watching Max inbetween naps) and the vibes have been great, let's keep it that way. ♥

It does look like there was a nerf right at the end there which is unfortunate for Liquid, but Echo was still performing excellently regardless. Looks like an increase of the interval for the healing orbs from 8s to 10s and a few other things I don't get.

Example, this hotfix hit somewhere between 4 hours and 30 minutes ago. Various Raszageth related hotfixes including what at a glance appears to be a 50% nerf of the shield on Mythic. No clue though, don't have enough info to provide a complete picture. 🤷

Still think there would be added value, especially during RWF, to more transparency around hotfixes Blizz is doing, either by Blizz themselves or by the community datamining them. A lot of the reporting around hotfixes is regularly wrong/partial/leaving out context/very late.

Their communication has definitely improved since I made the thread. The quoted part is exactly what they did (but I don't think they did it because of the thread) and I'm hopeful to see more going forward.
Posted a quick update praising this as well: us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/meta-

I... I can't believe it. An actual roadmap! This is exactly what I asked for in one of the council threads, but color me surprised to actually see them do it.

Not sure if this was already there and I just missed it, but it seems some of the Living World stuff from the Dragon Isles has been added to Stormwind too

I'm glad that brought up (55:08) the recent situation with players at early high renown getting ahead storywise. From Steve's response, it appears the dirt/key grind was unintended and that they're still evaluating how to improve unlocks in the future. Good news!
