Trying to figure out how the protocol for the new LoL clubs.

I order you to forgive yourself!

Might be relevant.

The normal chat system is done using the XMPP protocol.

Recently, Riot released a new way to communicate with other people within the game. They called their new system the "Clubs" (btw we have a SEN club). Guide to Clubs

It's similar to the normal chat rooms except that when you log back in, you can see a certain amount of messages that you missed while being offline.

It seems like the LoL client connects to http://clubs.leagueoflegends.com:443

I'm trying to get my own program to be able to connect to my league account in order to talk in a club.

Are you trying to reverse engineer their protocol or just interact with a public API? These are two very different questions.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
