I think I'm at 16-18 or something now. Is this a result of being matched up with better opponents? Also, I've had not one team that had all english speaking members in that losing streak. Many have been mostly spanish and some have been East Asian....this is NA region as well btw. It's incredibly frustrating not being able to communicate how to pick/lane etc efficiently and it just makes the games insufferable  .
Nature of the beast when playing solo. Everyone can choose which region to queue up in. So just because you signed up for NA only doesn't mean someone from Asia didn't do the same. Sounds like your just on a bad streak. When this happens to me I just focus on doing what I can with what I got. Gotta lower those expectations of your teammates and this game gets much better. Also don't take your own game play too seriously.

TI is the only thing which feels like Christmas felt as a kid. People can complain about not having multiple spread out events, or supporting more events. But the anticipation is just incomparable because of what it is. Want to share some of those screens buddy? If only you were in Virginia instead of, you know, Sweden. At least I have a TI party to go to on the last day!!! I may have convinced my best friend who is completely oblivious to anything about DotA to come watch one of the days with me. I doubt I'll convert him but at least I'll have someone to talk to and pretend I'm a gosu expert master to. Well I live in London not Sweden, not that it helps. There's that meltdown bar around here. Don't know if they're doing a TI event considering how late TI starts and ends and they can't sell alcohol at that time (As far as I'm aware). Do you mean a meltdown in London? If so the UK has 24 hour alcohol licenses - hard to get but not impossible - and more than likely it will have a 4AM one if it's a city centre bar. Seen as you've got Sweden in your profile, does that mean you're from their originally? Cos someone told me alcohol sales there are mental, like have to go to some special chemist and shit and it can't be sold after 6PM? Basically yes, other than that you can only buy light beer. (in bars you can buy whatever) You also have to be 20 to buy hard alcohol from a shop, although at 18 you can buy it in a bar. It's a pretty dumb law.
I've lived here for 6 years though. Almost no bars in London have 24 hour licenses. Unless it's a club it's going to be likely closed at that time.

All those black lines would drive me crazy.
Mine isn't going to look nicer =P I have like 3 23' monitors for the main computer and then 2 17' laptops. When I said potential screens I didn't mean for one system.

Nevermind what I said, apparently they got a late license specifically for the Final day.
The good news is that as well as Meltdown showing Dota on the Saturday from 1700->0130 they've got their hands on a late licence for the Sunday which means we can hang out and celebrate from 1700 until the first trains home in the morning (I'll update post with the exact time they'll keep the bar open to but the quote I have so far is that the licence should "cover until the finals are over")

Don't they now have those flexible OLED screens. Eventually you will be able to buy monitors that you can open up like a scroll or something and curve it around your work space.
