you sound exactly like everyone outside of jsp, talking about jsp
also pretty sure the people that gave streamerguy the sojs were doing the exact thing you mentioned, pooling resources.

I want to hear what has to say now that we know for sure how it works

it's not really the same. while yeah there's an aspect of exclusivity to being in a jsp dclone group, anyone can register on the site and look for one, this effort is public even. no one in particular has to be in charge of a group either.

on the other hand popular streamers can leverage their viewership to spawn their own groups and gobble available sojs at their whim. suddenly the criteria to organize hunts isn't that you're a well-informed d2 player, it's that you have a viewership base of d2r players large enough to get started. so basically a handful of people who might not even be d2 players can easily control a big portion of the game's economy.

From the other thread

im up for it need more details

Did you guys see that anni sell for 40,000 fg

Except no fg changed hands. Neither of them have had 40k I watched the thread the whole time. Multis trying to increase the price of their other threads so they can sell for 25k even tho two more walks are planned this week. They’ll be going for 5k unid come Monday

So what happened?

A lot of ppl joined the event and diablo walked?

So looking for ips works eh?

gg ez

I wrote a program to get the IP of the game you're in: https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=86757460

Uses the same principle as the TcpView program, without having to manually compare multiple lists of IPs
