IE DOTA Tournament (or league?)

[Palmar]

yeah, we still need the proposed leaders to step up and form their teams.

[Lotinja]

My team

Lotinja
Otori
Crazylock
Tyler
Vorte (if he can get his net to work!)

[Hugman]

stop failing "Pros", sign up and pick teams.

Dell update list of names pls.

give dota torney!

[Grishnag]

yeah dell up date the list... i just think everyome should be spamming this till he does EVEN IN GAME :)

[Inphyy]

Depending on the timeroster I might be able to join. However I can never be sure about my availability so I'd be a reserve player at best. So best chance for me to be on is after 00:00.

[delling]

Unfortunately that's not how the picking goes.

We need 4-5 team leaders on vent, and then they take turns in picking players.

Will revise list.

Assume Sapa won't be taking part, or Inphy. Don't think Grax will be either.

We can meet up sometime this week and pick teams.

[delling]

Updated.

Can't really balance the numbers between the brackets.

Moved me down to Above-Average, so we can have 1 pro per team.

At 23 people on the list, 22 discounting Vorte.

Looks like 4 teams to me, or 5 if we can dig up some feeders like Daekesh/Fowaty, and let Vorte play.

[Palmar]

4 teams is better

having reserve on a team might be a good idea. I'm more than happy to sit out some games.

TEAM SELECTION PROCESS:

So, 4 or 5 team leaders chosen (the 4 or 5 best players we have).

They roll. Roll order defines picking order.

Pick is 'standard' league pick.

Leader A chooses 1 player (from any bracket).
Leader B chooses 2 players (from any bracket).
Leader C chooses 2 players (from any bracket).
Leader D chooses 2 players (from any bracket).
Leader E (if present) chooses 2 players (from any bracket).

Leader A chooses 2 players (from any bracket).
Leader B chooses 2 players (from any bracket).
Leader C chooses 2 players (from any bracket).
Leader D chooses 2 players (from any bracket).
Leader E (if present) chooses 2 players (from any bracket).

Leader A chooses 2 players (from any bracket).
All remaining leaders then choose their final player.

(Did I mess up the last round? Someone like Tyler can probably tell me how fair the process is.)

Not a bad idea, Palmar.

[delling]

Some pro Googling and IRCing would suggest the most fair way to pick teams is:

A
B
C
DD
C
B
AA
B
C
DD
B
C
AA
B
C
D

Sounds like a good idia for me  :D .
Btw we shoud try sometimes -ar mode aswell , becouse everyone got heroes , hes better with and heroes he cant play very well . It will be fun  ;)

[delling]

AR is OK, but it can cause some really unbalanced games.

We chose SDNS over AR because it gives you some random choice, but also lets you still build a balanced team (2 agi, 1 int, 2 str, or whatever).

When we are better and we can win 5-int games... then maybe AR is OK.

-rd seems pretty good...

[Grishnag]

im a feeder? i dont agree!!!

[Vorte]

If god darn housekeeper would reply to my email.... we'll have new internet on the day. With wires and shit. And if I'm then no longer struggling with spikes (shouldn't:P), I might not be that shit anymore :(

[Gerdi]

I am not one of the pro's.
But I am up for joining a team or here to be chosen at least :)
