The secret of Codename: "Ruckus League" will not be revealed today.


KK... i skip this vanilla league/race and wait for the "Ruckus League" from now on... I don't need any beta key(s), just a little fun until the real deal is finished and tested.


Basically this. If Ruckus league is sufficiently Ruckusey - all beta hype will be out the window and I'll just wait enthusiastically for release :D


Lets just hope its not the league that will start when the beta ends.
Divination Cards: Items that you put together with maps in the map device(s) and increase map/item drops or map level.
I'm a forum warrior, i was born to post, raised to defend my league. Now my post has been removed, chained and exiled by mods who Ban. Ban is my brother; i do not fear it. I see it in the eyes of men and beasts that i troll. It will take me to play the actual game when i am ready and i am not ready.

Enjoy to everyone in the race! GGG at it's best. I would participate but I'm already getting beta soon - but I'd love to try solo self found because I think I have a lot of good strategies for it.

Now before I go into a bit of a rant about the 1 month race, let me explain that I'm okay with it happening this time - I'm just giving some advice about this decision.

Chris, it concerns me that GGG added 6 hours to the end of a 1 month race with 9 hours remaining in the race. Everyone that I talked to in the top 20 was thrown for a loop by this addition of time randomly and is not really sure where this came from, nor were any of us prepared.

The timing of this addition of time is really what most of us find weird/bad. Many people planned to grind based on how much time was left and this threw a lot of schedules off. Ultimately, this could change the top 20 ladder in a way that people were not prepared for before this announcement, especially for people that didn't see the announcement because of sleep/work/etc.

I think something like this is perfectly fine if done far enough in advance though - a few days maybe instead of 9 hours before the end. Please try and wait until a time like that next time so those of us playing for top spots can plan a little better - it would be really appreciated. Thank you :)

I'm Sorry if this is a little confusing - I'm quite tired and just woke up from a nap.


nobody is even on and mapping right now, and they won't be for another 4 hours or so. i don't understand the time addition either, but it doesn't really make a difference.


It seems the end time change did nothing much in the end, at least on HC, but it may make some ranks change. And the possibility was still there.

Would be nice if we could get Divination Cards(beta acess) added to drop at race
Good luck to everyone. I personally won't bother, becuase there's no way in hell I'll be able to reach top 35, and very unlikely to reach 70 in just 5 days, either, because I have a job.

Kind of wish they'd make the "random draw" a bit more inclusive towards those of us who don't play all day.

so you work on weekends? because you could easily reach 70 in two days(saturday and sunday) with a little ambition.
answered my own question. excited about the solo self found, which it would have started friday for a good solid 3 days of poe.

According to the timer, it won't start until 10 PM on saturday night where I live (Norway). And to answer your question, yes I do work on sunday, so I won't be able to start until sunday afternoon.

I wouldn't be so disappointed at this event if it wasn't for the fact that it starts so late in the weekend, as I have saturday free.

Love that we get a Solo-Self-Found-League, even if it is a very short Thing :)

Great Change regarding the Key-Giveout, really looking forward to watching the Competition at the Top.
Keep calm, play PoE, drink Tea & listen to Prog!

When there are people who can get to level 80 within a day or so of play and here I am at level 30, yeah, there's no way I can get within the top 35. I am okay with that though as some people deserve it more than me and it's those who know how to level like crazy that would likely provide better feedback than a slow-poke like me.

I'll keep holding my breath on the raffle.
