Morning Discussion
by Chris Faylor, Dec 05, 2008 12:45am PSTMorning Friday, nice to see you around.
Last night, Nick and I discovered that there are few things greater than puking all over your boss, or pouncing on top of him and clawing him to death. Even if you hold nothing against your boss--we have nothing against Steve, really!--it is surprisingly cathartic.
On a separate note, Left 4 Dead sure is fun.
Oh, and Mr. Xbox 360? Could you and Ms. Tomb Raider try not to freeze up so much? I didn't enjoy redoing that whole level just because you two couldn't play nice. And twice within 30 minutes? Neither of you had problems before last night, what's going on?
Oh no, don't give me that. Don't even think about red ringing, you hear me mister?

So after my last attempt at playing a shack game that ended horribly I've revised my approach to that game by playing the version of the map with bots along with guides from the DotA forums to learn item and character builds and get used to strategy before playing the more competitive games on battle.net. It's been surprisingly helpful so far and I was thinking about trying to get a comp stomp game of shackers going who want to shake the rust off or learn the game without teammates berating you.

So yeah, if any DotA newbies want to get a friendly game going to stomp some comps and learn basics I'm down for it.
