I have to say, I do like the chat channels, though small you can increase their size to 2/3rd the size of the normal SC chatting area. Social interaction is actually part of the game now.

And in other news, Popularity got its ass changed to Hours Played (Consecutively I presume) from Games Per Hour. There was also one other change, you actually have to host the game to make it appear on the list, else it DOES NOT APPEAR. At least I noticed that for some of the maps higher on the list, the ones on the lower end still seamed to appear though nobody was in the lobby.

SotiS was not on the list.

What a spectacular birthday gift for me, Blizzard. Thanks!
