All the "BUT IM WAY BETTER THAN MY CURRENT ELO" thing is completely retarded.

Also any kind of "I was 30-15 and now I'm 35-30, my teammates all suck" is retarded.


Large enough sample size = you will be at the ELO you belong. If you think you don't belong at your ELO after a realistic sample size (I'm not sure about the matchmaking system in LoL but 100 should be a solid estimate) you are lying to yourself. It's as simple as that.

Btw., the one and only link which has to be posted into this type of discussion no matter on which skill it is about:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning–Kruger_effect

ggyo.


PS: Fun fact, the above effect has been proven to be weaker for Europeans and actually reversed for Asians. I assume there can be exceptions like Shikyo though. =P

mmm i like shikyo, he almost exlusively says things which i strongly disagree with but at least he sticks up for what he (thinks?) he knows and doesn't just bend over when a higher elo player tells him he's wrong.

shikyo's got spunk.

There's a difference between defending your ideas and ignoring solid advice.

Also, he's posted so much about losing in ranked and then goes on to post his cool strats???

my day:
reinstall, play game, get DCed
have game tell me my pasword isn't correct, reset password, have game tell me new p/w isn't, reset again, get in
win via surrender 10 seconds after i get in

requeue, 4th pick, play roam taric
start 0/1/7, wind up as high as 2/3/24
lose game anyways because akali and I couldn't 2v5 vlad and support, despite us being 30 kills up

why did I reinstall -_-

Dude you have to be crazy if you think I post 100% seriously the whole time. It's more about intentionally being as dumb as possible at times. For example with my friends I know I've overreacted to criticism about me so it's like "dude you failed that lane" (when I won the lane) and I'll say like "WHAT HOW CAN YOU SAY I FAILED IT, I HAD DOUBLE HIS MINION KILLS" and it's like self-satire.

But maybe that's too advanced... so most people just hate me.


Btw unrelated, but my referrals haven't been updated in like 3 days. What's the update period?

So, I just got a (mebbe) good idea for a tourney. All accts are lvl 1, no outside-of-tourney games, no RP, series of games over a few weeks. Thoughts?

If I'm reading this correctly, why are all accounts level one, if they played prac games then wouldn't it level the accounts up anyways, and they'd have to make new ones? If you're trying to go for a no rune/only one mastery/only free champ setup then you can just mandate these as rules but idk

Well the idea I think is to have the tournament account gradually gain xp/ip that it can spend on runes/champs etc.
Could be interesting.

If there's any problem at all that prevents you from logging in (e.g. sever connection, client internal issue, etc.) it defaults to the incorrect password message because it doesn't have any other error message to display. Sometimes you just have to restart the client.

Referrals updates can take up to two weeks I've heard. Longer than that you might want to drop a Support Ticket.

With regards to Shikyo, I think he's okay. He's willing to try champs like Cass and his posts can be fun to read at times. Idk, if you don't like his posts just ignore them or something. I see them as his form of catharsis.
ModeratorA dream. Do you have one that has cursed you like that? Or maybe... a wish?

The tourney Idea would also be good because it forces you to know a number of champions since you can't count on having the ones you play regularly being free that week.

And don't be hatin' on Shikyo, hes always been very helpful when I have questions

Sounds like fun actually....I've always liked the idea of league-type play.
I think there's already something like a league for LoL that exists but I can't remember what or where it was...
