Everyone already knows that Blizzard has something in the works. Whatever the title, it's certain that it is going to be an MMO, as they're hiring people for developing a MMO game. Also, the developer has set up a site that counts down to a question mark, which should be the highly anticipated new MMO title. When we first learned that a StarCraft2.com also directed users to the teaser site, we were almost sure that Blizzard's upcoming game was SC 2, just
like the rumors said. But as it turns out, one more official site directs users to the teaser. So much for SC 2...

If you have a keen eye, or if you are familiar with Blizzard's work, you may just find the answer using what's known so far, as posted on 1UP:

- first of all, Blizzard everyone who hasn't been paying attention so far should know that Blizzard has set up a countdown teaser site, with no actual countdown timer, but a cursor highlighting Blizzard titles, until it reaches a question mark (the day it does, we all know what Blizzard's working on);
- a StarCraft patch was just released yesterday for custom StarCraft leagues;
- unlike Starcraft2.com, Diablo3.com does not belong to Blizzar, thus doesn't direct users to the teaser;
- the teaser is also available through WorldofWarcraft.com now, so I guess that further dissipates SC 2 rumors;
- StarCraft novel, Queen of Blades, is being advertised at the top of Battle.net

I'm running out of ideas here, just like 1UP so I'm also going to ask you what you think. So, what do you think? I'm sure you're annoyed about this as much as the next fellow, especially when you see question marks, so from now on, whatever question I'm going to post will lack the question mark. Check back when Blizzard decides to ease the pain.
