They can eliminate the April Fools problem they had last blizzcon by simply lot allowing fans to ask questions direct to the panel but instead have them submitted and chosen.
April Fools problem was when a person asking a question chose to comment and ask something else, namely about mobile version of Diablo.
- plopz 7y agoThat would be a pretty big admit of defeat though. Blizzcon for the last 10 years has had real customers asking questions from microphones. I assume they won't do that this year because they would be worried about what people will say, but I think that act in and of itself is very telling.
- recursive 7y agoDo they have to admit it though? Is there any way an observer of the event could actually tell that the questioners were all plants?
- chrisacky 7y agoThat's what happened with this guy (the guy in red). He was pre-screened, he wasn't selected at random. He was well known in the community as well, Blizzard already went with a safe crowd member. Short of embedding their own "paid-crowd" in the audience.. they couldn't have done much more.
