Hive dota tournament

[Wasabee]

Lol you kidding me? I play both DotA 1 and DotA 2.
There is still a lot of people playing both games.

 

[sentrywiz]

I'll join

edit: Nevermind it's dota 1, sorry guys but every dota player already switched to dota 2 and going back to playing dota 1 is not going to be something anyone will want to do.

If this was true, then all those dota 1 related websites and clients wouldn't exist anymore. However they do. Besides, why not? If you're on this forum, that means you also play wc3 maps. And dota 1 is a wc3 map

So, in an effort to get things moving, here's the next thing we'll need to think about doing:

You'll need to collect and randomise everyone into teams, and then from there I can recommend Toornament as a free and useful service.

Awesome, thanks. I'm gonna Random Lists to randomize the people into random teams if we're gonna start as random teams.

There would hopefully be more of these in the future, so I'm sticking this one out. But I'm still subscribing to see what goes down :3

And wow I first read it as 'Data' tournament and I was like, 'woah wtf hahahaha'

We can't say for sure. But sounds probable

Right, I say dota but I really mean "data mining". Its a secret pshh, don't tell anyone.

 

[Wasabee]

How many teams are we expecting?

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

How many teams are we expecting?

Hey I played with 'ya the other day and you weren't bad at all

 

[Wasabee]

Its our teammates that were good.

 

[sentrywiz]

How many teams are we expecting?

Atleast 2. That's 10 ppl. Then we play as random teams. I'd expect atleast 3 games.

Also, from the 16 people that said they wanted to play, only 9 have confirmed so far.

So I'm waiting for each of them to reply back or atleast 1 more.

 

[Wasabee]

Max - 4 groups
Min - 2 groups


Cool ;D

I've confirmed, right?

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

Count me in, too.

 

[sentrywiz]

Not until now no. I'll add you to the list.

Count me in, too.

Awesome!

 

[Wasabee]

Yay!

 

[sentrywiz]

So we're 11 ppl now. Might be a good time to schedule the first game matches for this weekend. What do you think?

I'm leaving a 10-20% ratio that someone won't be able to come, but incase everyone does I will spectate / record
instead of play.

Depending on the time, I'm good - also I'm more than happy to record as my skill's pretty lacking, should everyone turn up.

 

[Wasabee]

Me too it depends on the time.

 

[sentrywiz]

Okay then, let's discuss time.

I am in UTC+1 and I'd be most comfortable after 6pm.

Write your time zones so that we can work something out.

 

[Wasabee]

Mine is UTC +8.
I prefer late evening.

 

[Duke]

I am UTC+1, would prefer sunday either during early afternoon or late evening

 

[bajaist]

I am in CET (UTC+1).

 

[Ash]

I'm in Newcastle, so that places me in GMT. Saturday evening I'm busy, but apart from that the schedule's pretty open.

 

[Kyrbi0]

GMT -5. Unavailable Sundays, available Saturdays after 6pm (but more likely 10pm).

 

[wasabiwaffles]

utc -5 Available for Saturday afternoon.

 

[BloodDrunk]

I guess I will join this.
It's time to unleash my Geomancer skillzz

 

[Wasabee]

Lol.
I'm looking forward to that.

 

[Flux]

What version of Dota map is planned to play?

 

[Wasabee]

Latest I think?

 

[BloodDrunk]

Yeah, surely we will play ancient old versions...
It would be rather lame and pointless to play older versions lol

 

[sentrywiz]

Since there are so many different timezones and times people want to play at, let's organize our answers in a clearer style.


1. Preferred Day:

a. Saturday
b. Sunday

2. Preferred Playime:

a. Evening (6pm - 9pm)
b. Late Evening (9pm - 12pm)
c. Night (12pm+)

3. Game Version to Play:

a. Latest Dota Map
b. Specific (write your preferred version)

I wish i could join... broken PC... and exams on my head !!

O well hope to see you someday!

I guess I will join this.

Can I add you to the players list on the main page?
Also: challenge accepted!

What version of Dota map is planned to play?

Changed your mind about playing? Cuz I remember you said you'd only play dota 2.

 

[Wasabee]

1. Saturday maybe Sunday
2. Late Evening
3. Latest (6.83d)

 

[wasabiwaffles]

Saturday evening on the latest DotA map is fine with me.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Sentrywiz, I think it would also be helpful for everyone to talk in GMT/UTC 0, rather than all our separate time-zones.

 

[Flux]

I mean what's the latest map in Dota 1? Is there a v6.85?

@sentrywiz, no just asking.

EDIT: Nvm, saw apcrab's post that the latest is 6.83d, that means no recently new items like Octarine, Lotus Orb, Enchanted Mango, etc.

 

[sentrywiz]

Hm, you may be right. Though its more important to know when everyone prefers to play rather than a timezone

 

[Almia]

there was a 6.85 released by one of the former developers(I think he is one because his name rings a bell when I have read it, tho i forgot his name)

Sadly, the new items are not added(because of Wc3's limit) but they added some new game mechanics(right-click deny, right-clicking runes with empty bottle automatically refills it, redeeming gold from recently bought items, etc.)

 

[Wasabee]

Is there really 6.85?

 

[Duke]

Yes it is being played on Ranked gaming client

 

[Wasabee]

Where can I download it?

 

[Duke]

http://www.dota682.com/dota-v6-85j-allstars-w3x/

 

[BloodDrunk]

Um, no it's not being played on RGC as I myself am playing .83 there da hell?

 

[Duke]

Guess it depends on room you play in. I play in serbia dota room and they play 6.85 there, but in EU public they still have 6.83 for example

 

[Wasabee]

ENT only have 6.83.

 

[BloodDrunk]

Ok so, what, how do I participate? I've been reading all 7 pages and didn't really understand where should I go to sign up haha
I did do that pool on index page, am I in now?

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

6.83d is the version we'll all want.

I wouldn't want to play something that isn't officially released on GetDotA.com
It might be beta testing, or it might be a hacker re-creating the map and getting his own "fixes" about, which I think is more to be true.

For my GMT zones, anything works. I'm +1 but I generally have no sleeping habit these days due to my baby growing her teeth up, so I can pick whatever time I want

 

[Kam]

I too am not clear on the when/where. I am +6 GMT

 

[sentrywiz]

Guys I'm not as online as of late and not really interested in this anymore. It might be because I'm very busy irl as of late, trying to find a decent job + attending mandatory seminars and workshops nearly 8 hours a day. So I'm not in the mood for organizing dota events when I haven't played dota for nearly a month now.

Maybe once the dust settles and I'm back in the routine life I might help out but I can't right now. So I'll be happy to give this thread and all hive dota related threads to someone who wants to organize this (if its possible through admin / moderator). PM me if you want to organize this and possibly all future hive dota events.

I will still be available to play on weekends. I am UTC+1

6.84 was released but then shortly removed from getdota because it was filled with bugs, the warcraft 3 engine reached it's limits.

 

[BloodDrunk]

So this did not become a thing?
Too bad. Was really looking forward to this..
