disadvantages of this bot
« on: June 13, 2010, 16:56 »
Even if it's the best private public bot I have played there is still one main problem frequently occuring on this bot: boosting stats. I have played many games when hosts didn't care about balancing teams at all. It's always the same issue: host switches friends or better players to his team but leaves an enemy stacked up with noobs. Later in the game it's usually 5vs4 or 5vs3 and host doesn't even think about !remaking the game or balancing. What's even more annoying, the game that should be finished in max 20 minutes is prolonged to 30 or 40 minutes just to boost creep, kills and assists stats. In the result stats abusers are always in the top of the ladder. I do not know if admins have ever considered it to be a problem.

I suggest to implement a new command into the game. The command that would let the opposing team forfeit the game so that the weaker team wouldn't have to wait another 20 minutes for an end that was obvious after first 10 minutes of playing. I also suggest to make hosts responsible to balancing the teams. Host, not players, should be responsible for selecting the players while in the lobby. It often happens that I join game and even before I get recognition of who is going to play host starts the game. Host should take responsibility for what is going on inside the game. If he let noobs in game to feed on he should be the one to pay consequences.

Not to say plain words, few last  games hosted by quon IN ROW, so statistacally every other game looks the same, sad.

Such games hosted by an admin do not count, am I right? ;)
