Nope, but I can improvise a fake russian accent when we play so that everyone can blame my suckiness on that.

I guess I'll give this a try. I mostly play on USE. It's easier for me to play on weekends but I can get maybe 1 or 2 games in on the weekdays.

I'm always available for IH matches apparently, but I don't check the GAF thread or open up Dota 2 to get in the NeoGaf channel until 4 hours later when teams were stomped, salt was distributed, and free items were shot through t-shirt cannons. Someone creating an announcement calling for an IHL match is a much better system than IRC or posting in gaf, in my opinion. Make everyone an admin in the group (or just frequent captains) and if they need warm bodies to fill up their roster or just want to drum up some interest in an IH match they can make an announcement in the steam group.

I second this motion. A DotaGAF group needs to be made, especially if we're doing an IHL.

Can we please do this?

Telosfortelos · (07-23-2012, 05:48 PM)

I'm in! I've played a lot, but I don't really know how good or bad I am in the grand scheme of things. A consequence of only solo queuing (I suppose that means I'm bad).

This could get very annoying if IHL announcements are spammed. Perhaps we can experiment with people idling in the dota 2 steam community group's chat, if someone is interested in an IHL game or mm they can idle in the chat without launching the game and and any messages will be pinged to the other players idling in the chat.

Regardless something needs to be done especially during the EU friendly hours it's hard to even get a 5 man group running.

This is an excellent idea and procarbine will be starting the IHL group when he has time.

Also, we're now at 97 IHL players after a mere 12 hours! Holy crap!

Sarcastic Response · (07-23-2012, 06:10 PM)

Add me to the group please? This will be a good way to level up in Dota 2. Besides, if I can take pleasure in dealing with salty people in the FGC, IHL should't be too bad lol.

It'd be interesting to record the heroes used in each game and the outcome to eventually calculate GAF IHL Hero Win rates.

Same with recording picks and bans to find out who the most banned/picked heroes are, et cetera.

If anybody is interested in joining in, we are trying to put an IH game up at the same time as the other that was flooded with spectators.
No streamers here so we can embarass ourselves as much as we want.

Yeah, along with each game there should be a link to the summary page on http://stats.dota2.be/

I want to see MVP for each game, for best plays etc but not just who's best ricer though.
