I really don't think ricing is a racist term, especially when applied to a game like this.

People are far too sensitive, it's a harmless term.
Regardless of whether or not it is "racist", it is very obviously derived from a racial perspective of farming. If it weren't for the Chinese teams typically being of the farming persuasion, "ricing" never would have become a thing. You can't deny this.
However, I'm only speaking objectively. If I were to speak subjectively, I would say, "I don't give a shit."

but I still want to know more about the origins of "cotton picking". Being internets, I have my strong suspicions...but I'd be happy to be wrong.
*assuming how I first heard it used in WoW came before how it was/is being used in DotA.
Actually that's a good point. I was working under the assumption that DotA was the origin of the term as it is used here. I do not know if it was used that way in WoW first. It wouldn't surprise me.
Either way, I feel pretty safe in saying that the reasons for the word's existence are as I stated.
I went 3:3 so far, 2 of the losses were with abandons.Did you win or lose btw? VS is great fun.
Is there an update coming later today? I just checked the blog and saw a post from yesterday which was strange because I thought the blog posts come out on Thursday. Lycan looks incredible.
Team complexity pics up FIRE.
Yesterday's post was basically to say "We're sorry for the downtime and delays, enjoy some art, update coming Thursday."

tf2 updating, valve trolling.
Think of it this way guys, we either get a message telling us there's an update or we get a message telling us that they need another week.
So far, we still have a 50/50 chance!
