If we find a stream that we think would be a good addition to our Featured Streams but we think it unlikely that they'll be able to create an account even if we asked (such as Koreans/Chinese pro players) the staff can manually create a stream listing for them.
Which also requires setting up an account

I quite like demon (at times) but he's hardly who I'd expect on a show talking about a patch log. To be fair I don't think Cyborgmatt is that guy either. But Cyborgmatt I'm assuming will be there to talk about general news stuff as well.
I guess it can't be as bad as when singsing was brought on talkdota to talk about a patch. Demon's obviously a veteran for a longer time than I'm sure many new fans realize and knows the game well, but there's a subsection of players who you might follow for their opinions and knowledge about the game and I've never seen Demon as in that camp. (of puppey/fear/maelk/fluff/etc)

I tihnk Demon is fine. He does the picks for the "team" he's in now, he drafted for EG a bit, he's a veteran in the scene. I would like to know his thoughts on the patch more than most other pros. Also, there's a "drama factor" around him, being kicked from EG and eliminating them afterwards with a pubstack, etc.
Cyborgmatt, I dunno... I didn't really learn anything from the "patch analysis" with him, Bruno and Pflax. I'm not sure if he's going to add much to the conversation here. I think any "analytical caster" would be better.

Yeah, was quite dumb of talkdota to bring a player that had not even read the changelog yet onto the show.

apparently after my 2 weeks break from dota2, I got 72 charges of reports. Poor all the souls that got matched with me.

I havnt reported anyone in 2 months but I still get the "we have taken action" message all the time.

I have never ever reported anyone.

Questions: What does bottle crowing mean? I can't find an answer on google anywhere. Why do people call last hits cs (I think that's what they mean when they say cs anyway). Why do people call some heroes by their names (like people calling lifestealer naix for some weird reason)? So much weird terminology that makes a newer player like me (~200 games) very confused very fast.
EDIT: What is pooling? Something that was apparently nerfed in .79. But I don't understand what it means. I'll probably come up with more questions lol.

-Bottlecrowing is when you transfer the bottle from yourself to the courier, send it back to the fountain to refill itself and finally back to your hero.
-CS = Creep score.
-Naix was the old DotA Wc3 name that people just accepted as a common terminology.

Bottlecrowing - putting an empty bottle on a courier to send it back to fountain, as it will refill back to full charges
CS - creep stats, there was this command in DotA before they made it on by default, -cson
It would show your last hits and denies, so people just simplified both (although they mainly refer to last hits) to cs

Thanks for the answers! Those all make sense. However, I'm curious to know why sending the courier back with the bottle to refill it a bad thing? Why would anyone want to have it removed/nerfed?

bottle crowing means putting filling the bottle back and forth with the courier.
cs is creep score, its the same as ck=creep kill or lh=last hit.
people call heroes by their names because they got used to it in dota1. i still call venomancer slither cuz im a hon noob.
pooling is supports buying tango/salve for mid offlane or carry players.
edit: stancel too fast too furious

For your team, your hogging the courier if you're consistently doing it which sort of screws your teammates that needs items.
For reasons why people want it removed, people would say it's impossible to die in mid lane anymore ever since people started to bottle crow and removes skill from the game.

Again, makes perfect sense. I feel like I can understand twice as much as I did 10 minutes ago when reading threads lol. Thanks for that

For future reference, there is a thread for this:
simple question, yango answers
Though sometimes I get the impression that easy questions are put in the GD and the theorycrafting is done in the simple questions thread.
