when I am available I could join.

Sorry Joe but the registration is already closed since yesterday afternoon
better next time

@Shinji and Deffskull
I suggest -apfrso Combination of All Pick, Fast Respawn and Switch On
Because
Switch On - whenever someone is Disconnected we could use his/her resources
Fast Respawn - I dont want to wait for one minute or more to respawn my hero
All Pick - My favorite mode i favored this mode

All Pick -lll
Three are in favor of All Pick

This is more of expressing opinions, not a matter of demoralizing, okay ?

I don't support -fr because it will make the game harder to push and even ending the game fast because your Heroes basically spawns way faster than usual.

I suggest to not use the -fr to make us easily push when late games.

Imagine, you are having a clash at in front of the tower in your base and 5 downs only 2 survived (the opposition survived 2 and has low HP/MP), and they will continue to push.

But suddenly, the 5 downed Heroes are respawned back with full HP/MP and those 2 survivors won't stand a chance at all to push.

I support -so all the way.

May I ask, will bot really host the game ?

If bot host, would the bot has the ability to save the game ?

Because, if one of the player is having a random disconnection, we can load up the game for the last player who saved the game.

While if bot host the game (with no option to save the game), we just continue the game, leaving that disconnected player, it would be un-cool :(

I know it's fun and all if you are having a short respawn time if you're the death ones..
But think about the opposition, they will have a low chance of push.

The solution for long respawn time is to Alt-tab and open something else :D
You can create enough strategy overview when you are dead, don't miss this opportunity.

thats why we are using bot for game convenience
Here is the Host BOT features

• Automatically kicks high ping players.
• Restrict your game to limited countries.
• Ability to reserve slot for some player.
• Enable or Disable map downloads and set it's speed.
• Auto-Ban Leavers & Name spoofers (BanList)
• OpenStats for DotA player statistics.
• Disable Resource Trade or Sharing.
• Shows Players loading time when game starts.

Pfffff silly people, that's not how you do it >_>
there is a timezone problem you know.
This is how it's done:
you pick a time like "from 6 PM to 10 PM", tell everyone about the date in this thread "friday" for example, then tell them the place to meet "Hive chat channel"

Well... Sorry. You're right.

Garena now supports team discussion, we must first add all players and discuss there, it's more convenient.

Jhonny has already created a group in Garena plus. Just add him in Garena and he will invite you to the group.

I have played DotA 2 all over the asia and it only spikes to me a little.

And also, I have played RGC (Ranked Gaming Clients: another DotA platform such as Garena) and I don't have lag issues there too.

I'm afraid snowman will have lotsa lags ?
