Q u o t e:

Thank you to everyone who reported the growing "tie-hacking" problem in Warcraft III ladder games on Battle.net. We have just released a patch to fix this problem, and we will reset the Warcraft III ladder in January at the beginning of the new tournament season to give all players a fresh start. In addition, we are banning the CD keys of top offenders for damaging the gameplay experience for players who seek fair and fun competitive matches on Battle.net.

In our ongoing effort to address Battle.net issues that arise, please feel free to leave any feedback you may have on the Tie Hack Fix here.

Lets keep this discussion about the Tie Hack fix. I will add another thread for feedback on additional problems to be addressed.
