Ohhhh is this an American English vs. British English issue?

I’m very interested. I could have said “(the thing) gets underway today” or “(the thing) starts today” or “(the thing) gets going today”.

“Begins soon”? I try to avoid “soon” when the time of something is already known.

Don’t praise it before it ends. I did it with 2020 and look what happened xD

I would definitely have written:

The word gets seems unnecessary. Simple is better. As Mark Twain once said to a student:
“I notice that you use plain, simple language, short words and brief sentences. That is the way to write English—it is the modern way and the best way.”

Dunno, “gets started” just means something begins (referring directly to its beginning).

Although I see your point that “AWC 2021 starts today” is probably simpler.

I think they should have used gets cracking today :stuck_out_tongue:

I actually hope it’s going to be an absolute clownfiesta and a cataclysmic failure we’ve never seen before just because this might be the only chance we’re ever getting changes.

Well you’ve definitely forfeited the opportunity to say that Blizzard never listens to your feedback.

So you know, good luck on the forums Nexintus! :rofl:

That was the genie wish for the PvP community and you spent it on…changing the title of a forum thread. :+1:
