I don't know what happens in multiplayer games but in single player
games there is something very weird happening to the exp. gained from
killing diablo (1st time more than 110K)
When you kill diablo this exp. is added but there are 3 different
cases:

1) Let play the video and restart ---> exp. is gone
2) Don't let play the video and restart ---> exp. is gone
3) Don't let play the video, save and restart ---> exp. is added!

Although the game does keep track of the times you killed diablo in
every case.

Can someone confirm this?
