Can we get some more ban waves through out the season would be great lets not wait till the end of season to make d3 great again … 
No, 4th of July start 0000 Hrs and ends 2359 (11:59 pm) Saturday.
Thank you Blizzard for hand picking nice challenge rifts for us so we can have a smooth season start! Both EU and US. I was slightly worried after the baad ones in the last weeks.
(zero sarcasm here in case anybody wonders)
As the season start announcement blog doesn’t contain the usual FAQ section with start times for each region / consoles, can you confirm that the EU season will start at 17:00 CEST / 16:00 BST / 15:00 UTC?

I have poked Pez on that a few times already 
I linked the old FAQ. He said he would address it so I expect him to update info “soon”. Although sooner would be better than later.

Thank you <3
Console is different so they should be starting world wide at 5pm Pacific time for all consoles no matter what region.
any chance someone could acknowledge the Challenge Rift situation? It’s kinda one of the first things most people do at season start, and noone has responded to any of the bug report posts about it yet.

Almost there… These 12 days feel like its 12 yearsssssssssssssssss.
I can only presume you meant CEST (Central European Summer Time) for EU.
Correct! I always get those mixed up in EU 
Hello. Is there any official hour also for consoles ?
Yawn. Reminds me of the movie 'Groundhog Day" with Bill Murray LOL!! Same stuff over and over! Same maps, same bounties…you get the point lol.
Stop calling it seasons and call it “Groundhog Day”
We have a platform-wide hotfix being implemented later today related to the Necromancer class. We want to share that this hotfix will not cause any disruption for any end users, does not require patch updating and will move the version to 2.6.9a.

7/1- Fixed an issue where the Necromancer’s Simulacrums may stop casting their abilities under certain circumstances.

Speaking of EU, perhaps you could nudge your EU equivalent to update the EU announcement thread with those times, and maybe make it a sticky? It’s half-way down our forum now…
EDIT
It’s stickied now. Thank you, kindly.

Do we know what are the circumstances ? i made a post earlier with 2 video’s and i am not sure what is causing it. Patch 2.6.9: Simulacrums bugged as they Stop attacking
Also, with some rift affixes i.e walls , or when the barb stomps, sometimes the sims sit on the wall affix , or they climb the floor’ wall , or they reposition when stomps occur to give space to trash. is this intended ? because it’s super hard to reposition them ? can they be fixed to walk through mobs ? they obviously don’t mimic player illusionary boots.
