"Your firewall is blocking the game"
Then why did closing the game and clicking reconnect allow me to connect without touching firewall settings at all?
Different ports.
As often as I see players not realizing when the problem is on their end (often with the firewall in the router not having ports forwarded), I've still gotten the firewall error lately despite having gone through all the motions, even the IE settings necessary - which you wouldn't know about unless you hit the troubleshooting page.
But you'd think after this many seasons it would test the connection before starting a match.
I'm guessing there's a script error somewhere misdirecting something, like a bad address or whatever.
