The Battle has begun. As PGTour approximately two hours ago opened BNet-X, gamers from all around dusted of cds and began racing for the top! You recognize it by the many gamers, the spam, the good music and the hackfree well smelling games; Season four - Revival season - has begun and yet again a light for StarCraft has been lit.

After only two and a half hour of gaming, the race is in full motion. Many South Koreans populated the ladder immediately but you can see some European faces in the list as well. This list is constantly changing and most likely it will make a total turn and look completely different by tomorrow this time.
Creating instead of channel searching games
PGTour administrators have encouraged gamers to create games letting people join, instead of spamming the channels. This due to the fact that there are so many users in the channels so that typing becomes almost impossible. This encouragement seems to be breaking the standard pattern of private gateways whereas many users keep on channel searching.
"522 users online, in 161 games"
The number of current amount of gamers is constantly increasing and has been since the opening 15.00 CET. The Ladder[D] channel is populated by nothing less than 150 gamers hungry to play. It's so motivating that I can not hinder myself from starting to play immediately. BNet-X indeed put the standards of a "private gateway" into a whole new level; mainly by introduction the antihack launcher though this is far from the only explanation. We will be monitoring the development of the struggle for a 100% hackfree envoirment as Blizzard constantly releases new patches to work against it. A new patch is rumoured to be released tomorrow in order to fix the Infested Terran bug, which might cause some down time for the PGTour server while the launcher is being updated.
