Do you think...

...that the amount of players on bnet went down recently?
Are people deserting warcraft 3?

While there were no games up i rebooted my computer and i took the chance to go on bnet for real.
All i saw was bot-hosted games, particularly dota, with alot of "ranked", "div" "cash" labels on them.
Is that new or how long has it been like that?

I noticed the same thing but I think that there are tons of games hosted at once, mostly those BGN stuff and people just spread out in them, you know? It's not like theres, say, 20 games to choose from. there's like 100 or so and they don't even appear all at once. What really shocked me is that only about 40% of the hosted games are DotA, mostly because those BGN bots host all used-to-be-very-popular maps, tons of those.
