there's always hitbox but i mean i think it's totally understandable that twitch tries to lock down contracts with their most profitable content producers

Twitch is going down for maintenance. Gunrun was been tweeting a count down for like over an hour.

another thing I don't understand is why people whip out their dicks and say "yeah you know my computer can handle 300fps" but they don't have a monitor that can actually display that framerate.

I used to be pretty sure there's some sort of frame blur in place when your framerate is higher than refresh rate, so that the games actually do appear smoother than usual, but nowadays I can't tell if that's the case, mainly due to not having a rig good enough to pump out such framerates in newer games.

I am sure there is no way Twitch could do it without fucking someone.

And on the topic of ddosing, R1ch and Cyborgmatt were talking about one of the major problems being players refusing to change their habits. They have been beating this drum for a while and that league should start penalizing teams when its found out the ddosing was preventable.

I'm not sure if its viable or true, but they have been talking about it a lot.

i feel like it's been clear there's a cabal of dota haters who DDOS high profile dota all the time (especially c9 games) but nobody talks about it. not that anything can be done from our ends.


Never seen the word cabal used before so I took the time reading about it on wikipedia. Ty good sir for making me learn something today.

i know for a fact that when n0tail got ddos'd last week he was like "oh i knew there were preventative measures i could've taken but it's never happened to me so i didn't think it would be a problem"

i mean its already pretty fucking funny that some teams still use skype for voicecomm in comp games rofl

I mean, what else can they do? Unless the players smarten up and stop using skype on their gaming PC, it will never go away.

That shit is actually the best, like wtf. I suppose the easiest solution always wins, no matter how many issues it has.

why in the world is skype still used anyways

there's ts, there's mumble, vent, razer comms

and if you need accountability there's email and messenger and trillian/digsby/pidgin if you use multiple clients
not to mention you can also log chat in mumble and ts and vent

perhaps most progamers are just lazy kids who are good at games and terrible at actually using computers hmmm

pretty bad that even teams like c9 haven't done anything about it, what's the point of a manager if he can't get something as critical as communication security under control
