I understand why it may be necessary at times. You should try to limit it as much as possible, though!

What kind of retards are we talking about? Clueless people, or verbal people? Are you sure nothing might've instigated their reaction(aside from gameplay)?

Unless me saying "me + lich bot" somehow instigated him into screaming shit on the mic, typing a bunch of fucking shit, and coming bottom and ruining the lane while just screaming ME LAST HIT YOU SUCK DICK ME LAST HIT YOU SUCK DICK.... then no I don't think I instigated him in any way.

First abandon in ~430 games... I don't understand why people would play the game just to ruin it for others.

Can you guys, instead of saying you got two keys, list the scenario in which you got your original key so we know WHO got the keys?

For example: My account, which got a key directly from Valve before they sent out keys by email, and has already received 2 keys in the past, did not receive any additional keys this time.

Also, my secondary account, which got a key from a friend invite from an account which got a key directly from Valve before invites were sent out by email, also did not receive any keys.

I'm still trying to figure it out. I have 300 hours played and the only other friend I know that got 2 keys also has 300+ hours played, so maybe it's based off play time.

For me these are the first keys I received, as I initially received dota 2 beta from a friend as a gift.

I think it's based off of play time then. My friend who also got invites got his Dota 2 from a Playdota key that I won.

The CS:GO twitter said they're giving out friend invites for CS:GO based on playtime so I think that answers the question.

I received my key via friend invite from a streamer(NEOdota) on Christmas, and have logged 486 hours. I had not received keys previously, but received 2 friend invites today.

I got my account through an invite from a friend (he got 2 invites back in November 2011).

I have 600+ hours logged since getting my key, 11-11-11 (no joke, skyrim, dota2 wassup).

I got my 2 additional keys tonight, these are the first key's valve has given to me.

I got my beta invite from NEOdota's stream, same day and time as PHILtheSPAMTANK^^. It came with 2 keys which I gave to TL, and now I got 2 more from valve which I am also giving to TL. I've got about 400 hours of playtime (lots of it is idling in game tbh)

dont know why i got more keys and phil didn't though :S

I find it funny that they do it based off play time, because the reason I don't play much is that my friends don't have keys.

i got my key pretty early on but only start playing since mid of febuary since i no longer need to commit much into SC2 (CSL season end and UWaterloo has plenty of GM level players)

I could play 8-12 hours a day just like a full time player in both sc2 and dota2 but i do hv school and life so -_-... Do stream occasionly though, check out if u hv free time

560 hours and no keys to give.

My copy was a gift too.
Those small maps were like a boxing match in a phone booth.

I have 538 hours in Dota 2 without more keys. ^^ So I honestly doubt play time is the reason if it triggers at 400. :p
