On Monday, June 30, Blizzard North employees filed into work and noticed something bizarre: a contingent of executives from Blizzard South, including Adham and Morhaime, was in their office and meeting with the four bosses in one of the conference rooms. Brevik then gathered the staff and explained what had happened: Vivendi had accepted their resignations, effective immediately. David Brevik, Erich Schaefer, Max Schaefer, and Bill Roper were all gone.
