I majorly lol'd.
However, I still believe this will be true. if I was to see the crash happen, I would say it would be 9/9/09. The hex number is correct though, I looked up the translator and it does say diablo 3 9/9/09, it's just a matter of if the crash message is real or not.
Btw, open the link. Blizzard deleted his post. Dun dun dunnnnnn.....
EVEN IF, all this was untrue, here is what one site says.

Then you sir or madame, have been fooled
I was with the guy who posted the original thread (Nevereon) at the time he made it. We came up with the idea together when we were both tired on msn
Msn logs are as follow:

(22:10) Nevereon :: gabe: dol rune + lod expention in cube = portal to d3
In the end, he created a thread on D2jsp, because I never got around to doing it myself. I'm glad he did aswell, his was a lot more epic than anything I could've imagined

(23:50) LiVam: xDD
And that my friends, is how the dol rune conspiracy began.
And yes, "LiVam" is me on d2jsp. I was banned for copying and pasting a story written by the forum admin in a private message. For some reason they don't support free speech over there
Anyway. Hope someone finds this amusing. I can't tell you guys how much you all make me laugh with your responses. And you just haveto love the internet for this kind of thing ^^
Here is some more from the following day:

(20:30) Nevereon :: gabe: Theres some faggy flamer claiming that I copy pastad someone elses stuff. Apparently someone copied my thing and posted it on another forum with a diffrent gmt to make it look as if it was posted before.
(20:30) Nevereon :: gabe: What dumbasses.
(20:33) LiVam has changed his/her status to Online
(20:36) LiVam: lol @ your still running topic
(20:36) Nevereon :: gabe: yea
(20:36) Nevereon :: gabe: xD
At this point we figured it would be locked. A few days passed:

(20:13) Nevereon :: gabe: lmfao
(20:14) Nevereon :: gabe: I bet like 100 of the posts are mine lol
(20:14) LiVam: that's fucking sick
(20:14) Nevereon :: gabe: Yeah.
(20:14) Nevereon :: gabe: Some mod must have the hots for me D;
There are more logs, but they sorta get less and less interesting

Still, it was great fun while it lasted, and whenever I find threads like these I send them to Nevereon so we can laugh at them together.
Thanks for reading
