EPTAs I took the responsibility to organize lovely feeding-evenings with by beloved EUW brethren, it makes more sense for me to have first post rights, so I can feel good about my ego and shit. Less importantly, it's also much less confusing for newcomers to have a proper topic where the first 2 pages aren't spent going "I want it to happen but I can't be bothered to move my sorry ass". So yeah, there it is !
A bit of copypasta to start things off :
Vision Statement
The primary objective of Neo’s Inhouses is to forge a stronger TL LoL community through self-improvement. While no one will argue that League of Legends is a fun video game, I am convinced that as a part of TeamLiquid.net, there is a competitive side to all our users.
Ground Rules
Fun is not the utmost concern of these inhouses. While it would be great if everyone participating enjoys the camaraderie of other TL users, the primary goal here is still to learn how to become a better player in a group setting.
“Registration” is mandatory. If you are interested in participating in these inhouses, you will make a post with the following information:
- Ingame name
- Rank and division
- If you are a lowbie (Gold or below), include what position you would be interested in working on. (List two)
- For each role, identify two champions you wish to improve on
- If you are Plat or higher, just include rank and division
Installation of TeamSpeak is mandatory. Microphone is preferred but not required.
Be respectful and follow said rules to the best of your ability. Blatant infractions will result in a ban to your TeamLiquid account.
Play orthodox champions for specific roles. Don't pick Kennen and go bot lane AD. Don't pick Rumble and go mid. Those are situations most lowbies (both on your team and against) that will not be familiar with and it's detrimental to these IHs.
Don't run lane swaps. AD/Support should stay bot lane.
You must have a level 30 account. The detriment of not having proper runes and masteries is not something anyone can overcome. It makes balancing teams much harder than necessary.
Running an inhouse
How this will work is on certain set days that I will announce in advance, I will make a post in this thread at the start of the games and users will join a chatroom that I’ve posted. The chatroom will change every time because I want active users ready and willing to play, instead of a room filled with idlers. Based on your registration post in the thread, I will do my best to balance the sides and start the draft.
Expectations
As a lowbie
Expect your ass to get kicked. Frequently. But don’t let that deter you. I am a firm believer that hardship is a great motivator and teacher and as long as you’re learning from your losses, this is time well spent.
In exchange for the “lesson”, I do expect our lowbies to come back to the subforum, this thread in particular, and recollect on your personal experience for others to share in.
As a bigpro
Expect to have a large degree of patience. For users in this group (bigpros), chances are the games will not be a learning experience for you but you participate in these inhouses for the same reason I’m hosting it: you love TL and you enjoy the regulars that you interact with on a daily basis.
Take deep breathes regularly. Be prepared to point out the numerous mistakes that you see and explain your reasoning to the best of your ability.
There are the basic ground rules for TL Inhouses in general. Of course, we all hate the American Empire here in Europe, so we'll probably have a few tweaks here and there, but you get the general idea.

That's great and all Unseen, but where do I sign up?

There you go ! I fill it on my own, so do not hesitate to point out any mistakes I made, or anything you would like me to change in there, it doesn't take me that much time.
I had a poll done in the older thread, but it will be easier to have a brand new one right here :
