Dota 2 Blog Fast Queue
Jessecar posted a topic in Gaming NewsWe know that queue times have increased across the board recently, and the most significant factor contributing to this has been the stricter requirements that Ranked Roles imposes on the formation of matches. Prior to the introduction of Ranked Roles, the matchmaker had a wider pool of people to draw upon because of the few restrictions. In the past, when one or more players desired the same role, this conflict was resolved during the game itself, often with unpleasant results. This conflict is now resolved at queue time, but a price of this is that the matchmaker is often starved for players in the least-queued roles. The matchmaker must wait for players in the desired roles to enter the queue, or form sub-optimal matches with the players currently in queue to satisfy all role requirements. Usually the role most in demand by the matchmaker is Hard Support, but this is not always the case, and historically this has varied based on time of day, skill bracket, region, etc. To address role imbalance more generally, today's update introduces Fast Queue for Ranked matchmaking. Players in the Fast Queue are given priority by the matchmaker, and will find matches much more quickly. In order to earn games for Fast Queue, you must elect to play with all roles selected. Playing with all roles selected will also automatically place you in Fast Queue for free. When playing solo with all roles selected, you will earn four more games for future use in the Fast Queue. When grouped as a party, players can also earn Fast Queue games if the party fulfills all roles between its players. Two-player parties earn 2 games each, three-player parties earn 1 game each. You can earn and store up to 60 Fast Queue games. For example, if you are in a party of two where one player marks the three Core roles and the other marks the two Support roles, they will enter the Fast Queue for free, and will each be awarded two additional Fast Queue games. Parties of 5 will always enter the Fast Queue for free, but do not earn Fast Queue games. We've added new UI to make it easy to see to understand when you or your party is eligible for Fast Queue. Our data clearly showed that players choosing roles without any additional constraints simply doesn't result in enough role diversity for the matchmaking population to be healthy, negatively affecting both queue times and match quality. The motivation of the Fast Queue is to solve the "roll for mid" problem in a structured way that prevents in-game conflicts, while also providing enough role diversity to enable reasonable queue times. Going forward, our immediate focus will be validating that Fast Queue is doing enough to improve health of the matchmaking pool, and tweaking as necessary. We'll also be rolling out a small incremental update to the behavior and report system in the coming weeks. As always, please continue to give us feedback. We appreciate your patience thus far as we iterate on matchmaking. View the full article
Dota 2 Blog Continuing Matchmaking Updates
Jessecar posted a topic in Gaming NewsToday's update is once again centered on improving our Matchmaking system, focusing primarily on fixing issues that arose from our previous update. We understand that some players, especially at the high end, have experienced a significant drop in matchmaking quality as a result of our recent iterations. We appreciate all of the feedback and match IDs that we've been receiving—your input has been very helpful and we hope you'll continue to give us feedback after this update as well. We are committed to making matchmaking as good as it can be. Please check out some more detailed information on the different aspects of today's update below. High MMR Partying ==== Due to the unusually high frequency of matchmaking abuses found in party games in high level matches–we're adding a new rule to party matchmaking for Divine and Immortal ranks to help reduce some of the negative behaviors that have become common at these ranks and to help make solo queuing more viable. For any party that includes a Divine or Immortal player, every player in that party will be considered the same rank as the highest player in that party. While this will significantly reduce some of the more common abuse scenarios, the trade-off is that it will also affect "normal" parties with large MMR disparities. We think this trade-off is worthwhile at this high level, however, because matches are unlikely to be of high quality anyways with extremely disparate skill levels within a party given the shallow pool available. Such disparity has often made the games less fun for most players involved. We expect that this will have the net effect of reducing the number of party games at the highest skill levels by some amount, but compared to how infrequent high-MMR party games were in the past, the number of party games should still be higher than the historical average. Matchup Combinations ==== We are making changes regarding what solo and party matchups are allowed. For any five-player party, they will now only be matched against other five-player parties, regardless of any other matchmaking consideration. We are unsure if an absolute requirement like this will result in net higher quality matchmaking due to the more limited opponent spectrum available in that case, but we know this is an aspect the community talks about often and we are going to do our best to work within those constraints. Similarly, any solo player will now only ever be considered for matches against at most one party of two. This means that from a solo player's perspective, matches will always be either against a team of all five solo players or against three solo players and one party of two. This will be a hard requirement for the matchmaker instead of a situational consideration. Match Quality and Role Symmetry ==== As a result of some of the new features we added recently, we found numerous bugs in the matchmaker's evaluation that caused it to incorrectly rank various considerations. We've fixed those bugs and are expecting them to have a notable improvement in matchmaking. We will be monitoring the system after release to make sure the fixes have the intended effect. It is possible that there will be more issues to work out, so if you notice anything too far off please let us know. We've also done various tuning to make Role Symmetry perform better, as there have been a few cases at certain brackets where it did not do a good job at all. Finally, we are putting a bigger emphasis on having supports not be the highest MMR players in a game, to the extent that it's possible within parties. We've heard feedback from both core and support players that they would prefer the intra-match rank allocation to be that way. Medal Rework ==== We are back to 5 stars per medal now, 7 stars didn't add enough upside compared to the visual noise and confusion. In previous ranked seasons we've had a mechanism that caused the rank ranges that a given medal represents to shift over the season. While this gave some loose sense of progression, it made comprehension of what medals represent more difficult. It especially caused confusion after calibration where most players dropped medals despite winning most of their games. As a result of removing this mechanism, and the star count re-scale, we are rebalancing what MMR range each medal represents. The distribution model we are using for this is the curve we had in the final months of the previous season (and what we've had historically). This will help ensure that medals long term represent the same skill level at the beginning of the season as they do at the end. We are expecting there to be some confusion as a result of this rebalancing, since most players' medals will be adjusted upwards somewhat to be more in tune with what the medals meant at the end of last season, but there is no actual change to anyone's MMR number. High-Water Mark ==== In the past, once a player reached a certain rank medal, they would retain that medal for the remainder of the ranked season, even if their actual MMR fell dramatically below that medal's threshold. With today's update, your medal will no longer represent a strict high-water mark. Instead, if you are ever more than one star away from your actual current rank, your medal will be adjusted to reflect that. We originally added the high water mark because we thought it helped with player anxiety in ranked games. We think that is still true to some degree, however our data suggests that a one-star buffer captures most of that benefit for the majority of players. There are multiple downsides with having too broad of a spectrum on the high-water mark. First, it makes match fairness really hard to evaluate, because we always match based on MMR and not medals, and thus sometimes a game can appear to be good or bad as a result of the medals not representing reality. As it relates to the above goal in making it easier to evaluate matches, we think a one-star buffer helps balance both goals. The second benefit is that it makes account buying indirectly less valuable. A player can no longer be on another account and keep a high medal for an entire season. Moreover, this change will also work in conjunction with the smurf detection system we've been working on. We are currently only using smurf detection to increase ranks upwards to the correct levels, but soon we plan to have it work in the reverse direction as well. With high-water marks only holding onto one star's worth of a buffer, boosted or purchased accounts will now fall faster and lose the medal along with them. Post-Game Match Evaluation ==== We're very thankful for the feedback we've received in the last few weeks. We think the feedback people had was well rooted in real issues. In our eyes, creating high quality matches is the most important thing we can do to help players enjoy the game, and we're committed to improving our matchmaking system to achieve that goal. In an effort to help facilitate the discussions on matchmaking, we've made a couple small changes to the post-game screen. The post-game screen will now show the average and max queue times for players in the match to help you determine if we formed a bad match too quickly or not. A summarized behavior category of the match will also be displayed, to help players understand if the reason for the lack of a better match was a shallower pool as a result of poor behavior or if it was because of the matchmaker doing a bad job. Finally, we are sorting the list of players in the post game screen from left to right with position 1 through 5 (parties will have a new type of indicator on them still so you can still see what the allocations were). We are hoping this makes it easier for you to evaluate if Role Symmetry is working as expected or not. We recognize that adding more information here may cause a short-term increase in complaints rather than a decrease, but our long-term goal is to create the highest quality matches, and having more information exposed to players will ultimately lead to that end. Post-Game Survey ==== We've added a new post-game survey that is similar to ones we had a long time ago. Once a match has concluded, players will sometimes be surveyed to rate the experience in a match. This will allow us to gather more player sentiments on match quality to help find common patterns to what makes matches enjoyable vs what makes them unenjoyable. It'll also help us find bugs or mistakes in our decisions sooner than later. Of course it's natural that players will be more likely to equate winning a match to having a good match and losing a match to having a bad match, so we'll normalize the data for those obvious scenarios to help filter through the background noise and bubble up useful signals. We'll hold off on enabling this survey for a few days, to work through some bugs and update-related issues first. Communication with Low Behavior Score ==== Our last update included a wave of bans on users that were at the very extreme edge of the player population in terms of toxicity and negative behavior. However, those bans affected only a very small percentage of all players, and we also wanted a more gradual system to address players that are not at the furthest extreme but are still big outliers from the general player population. To that end, players that have a behavior score below 3000 are no longer able to use chat or voice until their score rises above the acceptable threshold. We believe this more gradual user-facing reinforcement mechanism will be valuable for both protecting the larger population from outliers and as a warning system for players who are moving in the wrong direction that might encourage them to improve. We set the threshold score at 3000 due to the low probability that anyone would be that low without having had a consistently negative impact on the experiences of many different teammates. Party Spread ==== As we've mentioned, extremely large MMR spreads within a party makes it hard for the matchmaker to find compatible opponents, and even in cases where it can, the matches are not necessarily enjoyable for the players involved due to some players having low impact/agency in the game while others have an outsized one. We recognize, however, that players still want to play with friends, so this aspect is not without trade-offs. To help address that, we're reducing the acceptable MMR spread within a party from 2800 to 2000. We'll consider further reductions to this spread over time, as the current value is still quite large, but we'd like to find the correct balance incrementally. This limitation only applies to ranked matchmaking. Core Matchmaking Code ==== We've made a significant revision to how the heart of the matchmaker iterates through the many players that are queuing at any given time. This revision restructures the matchmaker's search process to have more flexibility with how considers the increasing number of requirements. Because the matchmaker must segment the large number of players into smaller combinations to consider, it was possible that the list of evaluable matches weren't the highest quality in cases where the matchmaker excluded players due to soft considerations early in the process. Previously it was not very efficient if there were too many considerations within a team and against a team. Because of the nature of this rewrite, we are expecting there to be bugs for the next few days that may cause matchmaking to be sub-optimal, but are hopeful that this investment will allow us to more easily increase matchmaking quality in the long run. Reports and Player Bans ==== This update will remove some methods of reporting that were not rate limited in order to improve the signal-to-noise ratio, especially at the conclusion of a game. We have also been refining our booster and exploiter detection algorithms and have been doing regular ban waves in the background. We will continue refining these systems over the coming weeks. Banned players will also no longer show up or consume rank spots on the leaderboard. This fix was implemented a few days ago, as some of you may have noticed due to leaderboard ranking shifts. Going Forward ==== We are expecting the next day or two to be a little unstable as we iron out issues with the update, but after that we'd appreciate continuing with the feedback on your match experiences. Please make sure to always include a matchid with your feedback, as we often find them missing that crucial data needed to follow up. Our focus going into the next few weeks will be on monitoring and measuring the results of this update and following up as needed based on what we learn. The other big category we are going to be focusing on soon is revamping the new player experience for an update in the future. In addition, a lot of the ongoing work we are doing on smurf detection will indirectly help us in the future with placing new players into more ideal matches once they've completed their initial new player experience phase. We are hoping that after we get matchmaking into a better spot, it'll be an ideal time for brand new players to join in as well as for existing players to invite their friends into the game with the help of a better new player ramp.

Dota 2 Blog Matchmaking Update for the Next Ranked Season
Jessecar posted a topic in Gaming NewsThe new Ranked season is here. Today's blog will go over the changes we are doing as well as areas we are still thinking about. The changes in this update will be rolled out gradually over the next two days as we iron out bugs. The calibration part of the new season will begin this Thursday. Role Symmetry ==== One big observation that we had since the previous update was that matches with misaligned roles had a meaningful impact on game quality. An example of this is when the mid player for one team has the highest rank on his team, and the mid player on the other team has the lowest rank. This tended to cause games to be really volatile and not enjoyable. In the past we used to prioritize rank spread between the two teams as one of the main criteria for the matchmaker to judge success, however as part of this update we are changing its priorities. It will now put a big emphasis on making sure that the roles are more symmetric rather than other criteria. This will also be something we will continue to tweak and iterate on over the coming weeks to make sure the algorithm's search structure is correctly tuned and optimized for this. Draft Role Report ==== To help ensure everyone plays the role they queued for, this update includes a role report function during the drafting and beginning minutes of the game. Starting with today's update, using this information along with some other detection mechanisms, we will be much more aggressive in punishing players who abuse the system. Core and Support Ranks ==== Some baseline dota skills and knowledge are shared between the Support and Core roles. So having the two numbers be entirely separated didn't seem like a good idea to us, as we'd be losing valuable information about the player as well as promoting some warped incentives when you play your least used roles. As such, when you win or lose a game queued as one type of role, we'll also update the MMR of the other type by a percentage of that game's gains or losses. We'll be tweaking that ratio over time as we figure out the best balance. Ban Waves ==== This update includes a few different ban waves for bad actors. The first ban wave is to players with exceptionally low behavior scores. We will continue to do regular ban waves for users who fall into this small percentage of the community. Users that reach this low level of behavior in the game are too big of a tax on the rest of the community and are not wanted. The second case where users will be banned today is for anyone detected of violating the Steam Service Agreement that prevents the purchase or sale of Steam accounts. Buying accounts to get a higher or lower rank is not allowed and causes negative side effects for the play experience of others. This doesn't catch all account sales that happen, but we think we have caught enough to take some action. We are also banning players who've been detected using exploits to gain an advantage over other players. In the coming weeks, we will be refining the detection algorithms for these abusive behaviors and will begin issuing weekly bans that will go into effect without advance notice to violating accounts. Accounts that we ban will now also have the associated phone number permanently blacklisted from being able to have access to ranked matchmaking. Smurfs ==== We recognize that recently there has been an increase in smurf accounts. We share the sentiments the community has expressed on this issue and we consider it a high priority for us to solve as well. There isn't a single solution that can address this issue easily, but we hope that a combination of multiple different changes over time will reduce the negative impacts and frequency of it. The first change in this area is the usage of phone number verification. We've found a loophole that allowed a large number of users to play ranked without a unique phone number attached. We have fixed this bug and any user that does not have their account set up correctly will be prevented from queuing until it is resolved. This will also affect accounts that have been actively playing in ranked matchmaking, rather than just new accounts going forward. We are also changing the mechanism to grant Ranked access. Rather than a fixed number of games, we are changing the metric to be a time based one and increased that amount to 100 hours of playtime. Any users that already have access to ranked without meeting this requirement will be removed from ranked until they've played enough time. Our general approach to Smurfs is to try to get accounts that are performing higher than expected to their correct rank faster. The first change on this axis is to adjust MMR by more than just +/- 25 when we detect that a user has been clearly over performing (based on how the played heroes usually perform at a given rank). This will be an ongoing process as we get better at detecting this, but from the data analysis we've done so far, we think we can make some progress using this. This change will be silent for a few days as we verify the detection mechanism is working as intended, and will be enabled once that is verified. The other change we are making is how we calibrate the initial ranked MMR for new accounts entering ranked. Leveraging the new hours played gate we are adding for ranked access, we will be using your account's historical performance more aggressively to place you into a more accurate initial rank. In the past we introduced a really low cap on initial rank, we think that was a mistake on our part, because it caused smurfs to unnecessarily impact a large volume of games before arriving at a closer-to-accurate rank. Moving forward, we will be spending more time on live detection of smurfing and boosting behaviors. This will hopefully allow us to put detected accounts into an aggressive recalibration, resulting in a much quicker adjustment to an accurate MMR while reducing the number of games that are ruined in the process. In addition to this aggressive recalibration, we'll also be detecting and banning accounts for egregious boosting or exploiting of game mechanics. Miscellaneous Changes ==== To help reduce role confusion when queuing as a party, we've added a detailed popup for times when your party's selected roles are incompatible, such as when two players have only selected the same role. While this update is banning extremely low behavior score players, we've also increased the number of commends available for each player so you can recognize good behavior in your games as well. Other Thoughts ==== There are a few other general changes that we are not sure are needed yet or haven't been able to address yet, but are on our radar. We thought it might be a good idea to supplement this blog with information in the hope that community conversation about it can be helpful. – High MMR games: While we have some changes here that directly and indirectly improve matchmaking quality for the extremely high end bracket, we will be closely monitoring this to see if other changes are needed. – Hard Support: For certain MMR brackets, queue times and game quality would be meaningfully improved if there were a bigger percentage of players queuing for Hard Support. Many of the subpar matches we've found were a result of there not being enough players queuing for this role. We are exploring to see if any solutions can be effective for incentivising this. We also know that it is more common that you'll get Hard Support if you queue for all the roles, and we'd like that to eventually not be the case. – Role queue abuse: As mentioned above, we'll be much more aggressive in punishing players who don't play the role they've queued for. If we find that role abuse persists despite these efforts, we'll consider implementing role-specific bans that prevent a user from queuing for the abused role in future matchmaking games after they've left low priority. Our hope is that implementing such measures will be unnecessary as the results of our other changes. – Smurfs: Dota 2 being a free-to-play game introduces various matchmaking related challenges. One option we have thought about is having Ranked access have a one time entry cost, and that access can be lost for players who regularly ruin games. We may also grandfather in users that we have enough data on, but we haven't gone too deep in assessing the details here. We aren't sure if we need this as a solution yet either, we hope that other solutions can have a good effect at improving the matchmaking ecosystem. In terms of our development focus moving forward, we are spending more of our time than usual focusing on matchmaking quality. We believe that is the right call given how much opportunity there is to make the day-to-day experience better for all players. We look forward to seeing your feedback on this update, and to continue to hear feedback in the following weeks for how to improve matchmaking. View the full article
Dota 2 Blog The International Grand Champions
Jessecar posted a topic in Gaming NewsRoad to the Aegis Congratulations to OG, Grand Champions at The International 2019. OG rebuffed every challenger and silenced all critics as the first reigning champions in the history of The International to successfully defend their hold on the Aegis of Champions. After a dominating Group Stage that saw them drop only two games to their fourteen wins, OG squared off against a Newbee squad that was eager to prove themselves on the Main Stage. Newbee eked out a small advantage in the early goings of game one before OG took over and snowballed to victory. The defending champs never trailed in game two, and Newbee failed to kill ana's Juggernaut even a single time. Next up would be the stalwart Evil Geniuses, who smashed through OG's defenses for a convincing victory in game one that saw EG's top cores at their best. In game two, the teams traded blows for thirty minutes before OG took over and never looked back–taking the win to push the series to a decisive game three in which OG's ana killed every EG player at least once en route to victory. Last year's runners-up PSG.LGD were the next challengers subjected to OG's dominating run. Though the elite Chinese squad were able to secure a game-one victory, game two was a one-sided stomp in which ana was again unkillable–this time on the tournament powerhouse Alchemist. Game three was a tough fight with huge net worth swings. PSG.LGD scored more kills than the OG lineup, but the end result went the way of the resilient champions, sending OG into the Grand Finals for a second consecutive year to await their next opponent. While PSG.LGD did their best to set up a rematch by taking game one of the Lower Bracket Finals, Team Liquid proved the worthiest opponent, cracking off two straight victories to secure the right to face OG in the Grand Finals. As had happened in the previous two rounds, OG dropped the first game to their adversaries, unable to overcome Liquid's assault despite leveling out a 20K net worth deficit before their Ancient fell. But from there, it was all OG. Their clever drafting and stellar play led the way to three straight victories over Team Liquid. OG sent the challengers packing and claimed the Aegis of Champions–the first players to ever raise it twice. As bearers of the ultimate symbol of victory, these names shall forever be inscribed–again–upon the Aegis of Champions: 2019 Anathan "ana" Pham Topias "Topson" Taavitsainen Sébastien "Ceb" Debs Jesse "JerAx" Vainikka Johan "N0tail" Sundstein Looking Back If you missed any of the tournament, or just want to relive the incredible moments and plays, head over to the Dota 2 YouTube channel, where you can find replays of the tournament, including broadcast content from in between the games. You can also find a stash of photos from the event over on our Instagram and the Dota 2 Flickr. We would like to thank all of the players, talent, and everyone in the Dota community for helping bring this celebration to life. The International is the crowning moment of the competitive season, and without everyone's support, none of this would be possible. We hope you enjoyed this year's tournament as much as we did. The Days Ahead In the wake of The International, our next focus will be on preparing for the new Ranked Season as well as releasing some small gameplay balance tweaks. With the recent changes to Ranked Matchmaking, we're interested to hear any feedback or suggestions you have. As always, it's helpful to include account info and match IDs with your feedback in the contact form. Our next major release will be arriving later this fall with The Outlanders update, featuring the two new heroes–Snapfire and Void Spirit–that we announced at the event, as well as the next gameplay patch.

Dota 2 Blog Tiny Prestige Item and Custom Creeps
Jessecar posted a topic in Gaming NewsToday's update rolls out the exclusive 'Majesty of the Colossus' prestige item set for Tiny at Battle Level 255—along with the 'Reptilian Refuge' custom Radiant and Dire creeps at level 182—to fill out the Battle Pass rewards line as we approach The International. Featuring completely new models for each of his Grow states, plus custom animations and effects for Avalanche and Tree Grab, the 'Majesty of the Colossus' can only be earned by increasing your Battle Level to 255 before the conclusion of The International 2019 Battle Pass. Players who've already grown to level 255 can claim this item set from the rewards line and roll into the lanes in splendor and style. To accommodate the release of this new item set, Tiny's item slots have also been updated and simplified to correspond to his four levels of Grow, and his materials have been optimized to allow for more robust content creation. This means he will soon become available on the workshop, and that artists will only need to focus on making items to fit four base slots and one weapon slot on any future Tiny designs. The International Group Stage The first Group Stage action of The International kicks off at 9:00 am on Thursday, August 15 in Shanghai. With seeding in the Main Event at stake right from the start, make sure to tune in to the main stream to see the first stage of the tournament unfold. View the full article
Dota 2 Blog Summer Scrub Part 2
Jessecar posted a topic in Gaming NewsToday's update delivers the second half of the Summer Scrub, focused on bug fixes and some quality of life improvements just in time for The International. One of the first changes you're likely to notice is the implementation of a new version of the customizable hero grid. Players can now create multiple grid presets, each with their own unique layouts and categories. You can drag and drop heroes around the grid and rename or resize different buckets to suit your needs for any situation. We've also added a new alternate layout for the in-game item shop that allows you to toggle the classic column view to a new grid-style layout that retains the Basic and Upgrade sections while adding multiple grouped sub-categories for ease of use. On the game side, we decided to do a little house cleaning related to players exploiting matchmaking, botting or transferring accounts, resulting in a fresh ban wave for cheaters today. We've also made multiple performance improvements focused on minimizing hitches during teamfights. There's also a whole host of bug fixes that you can read about over on the update page here. Thanks to everyone in the Dota community who helped us identify which things were most in need of a good scrub. View the full article

Dota 2 Blog Matchmaking Update
Jessecar posted a topic in Gaming NewsA comprehensive matchmaking system is an important factor in being able to enjoy playing Dota, regardless of which hero or role you prefer. Today's update includes some engineering changes to the core matchmaking system to allow for bigger changes and better analytical capabilities. Over the next year, we'll be spending more time focusing on various aspects of matchmaking such as intra-team balance, player conduct, new player experience, abusive behaviors, account buying, friend and teamplay aspects, high mmr matchmaking dynamics, and other issues in an effort to make the overall experience of playing Dota more fun for players of all levels. In this blog post we decided to drill deeper into the changes in today's update and explain our thoughts. Matchmaking involves various tradeoffs and our goal is to find the best balance between all the different factors. In order to help make progress on finding the right set of tradeoffs, today's update includes a couple different experimental changes that will last until the end of the season. Close to the end of the season we'll do a direct call for feedback on how the changes have worked out and use that feedback, along with data we are gathering in the meantime, to help inform the direction for the next season. We'll also be working towards other features, such as better detection of smurfing and other abusive behaviors as the year progresses. The first of these experiments is removing the concept of separate Solo and Party MMRs. We expect this to be the most controversial component in today's update, as we've heard fair criticisms of it in the past. We can't say that we are fully confident that this will end up being a good change either, so we'll want to wait until the end of the season when we gather feedback and data on how it has played out after players have had a chance to absorb it. There are two major aspects with this change: 1) the teamplay and social aspect and 2) the value and correctness of the MMR value. For the teamplay aspect: We think it is really crucial for you to not have a disincentive to play with your friends. The game currently overly emphasizes playing solo and establishes a strong social reward mechanism for this, which causes many players to prefer playing alone than with friends. We believe that bias has over time caused more negativity and unhappiness when playing Dota. Furthermore, Dota is a very teamplay heavy game and we want to consider that aspect a bit more strongly in the hierarchy of matchmaking values. We've considered other approaches to the friend and teamplay incentives, but they tended to do a poor job at making it feel actually rewarding to play with friends and only papered over the issue. For the correctness of the MMR aspect: We recognize that there is a tradeoff here on the mmr data quality if the match has solo mmr numbers with party mmr numbers, however we feel that the impact of that data noise is much smaller than even we initially considered it to be early on and generally with how it is discussed online. Most of the issues related to this we think we can solve with better algorithms. Another common case is playing with a friend who has a higher mmr than you, expecting that it will cause your mmr to go higher. While that has been at least partly true in previous matchmaking system iterations, our most recent version does a fairly good job of addressing this. We have enough data to form matches that cause you to have an even chance to win by carefully choosing the opponents that have a similar makeup. At a base level, we think mathematically we are able to have high confidence that playing with a friend will not have a material effect on your average mmr value with a properly balanced matchmaker. We've done some testing to make sure this is true in advance of this update, however we know it's likely there is more work to be done here and we'll continue working on this aspect in the background during this experimental period. Through our investigation into the topic of matchmaking volatility and how parties affect the game, we've noticed something that fans likely already know: players have very different comfort levels when playing core roles versus support roles. Some players perform really poorly when they play a role they are not used to, and in turn introduce a lot of volatility in the system for everyone by causing your MMR number to drift away from your actual skill level as well as causing imbalanced games. So because of that, and because of our abiding love of having multiple MMR numbers, we are adding a new concept of Core and Support MMR numbers. In order to achieve this, we need to know what role you want to play in advance of the match being formed. So for this experimental update, we are moving the Ranked Roles feature to the base Ranked matchmaking and expanding on its capabilities. Now when you matchmake, you will have the option of selecting roles from position 1 through 5 (Safe Lane Core through Hard Support), including multiple selections. So if you like playing Mid or Offlane, you can select those two, or if you like playing Hard Support and Mid, you'll be able to do that as well. You will be matched based on either your Core or Support MMR. Each MMR type will also have its own leaderboard, and for the purposes of this short experimental period the existing rank will be applied as the initial rank for both Core and Support. If we end up keeping this feature in the future, there will be a separate calibration phase for each one. These experimental changes will remain active for the rest of this season for you to try out. Sometime after The International concludes, we'll issue a call for community feedback to help guide the next steps in our efforts to increase matchmaking quality for everyone. We hope to have your support and patience through this experiment as well as subsequent changes towards the path of making a better overall matchmaking system. While we were initially going to release this change as part of the Summer Scrub update, the amount of significant underlying code changes required for this update introduces a lot of potential instability. So we are splitting the Summer Scrub update into two parts, this first part for a matchmaking rework, and the second part soon after for bug fixes and a few quality of life additions. We are expecting that we'll have a lot of matchmaking related bugs to work through today, so please let us know if you run into any issues and make sure to include the matchid in your reports.

In today's update, all Battle Pass owners can choose to queue up to face the Wrath of the Mo'rokai, as two ancient guardians rise from slumber to wreak havoc on the age-old battle of the Ancients. To join the battle at full strength, the Mo'rokai require tributes of essence that will help them reclaim dormant abilities and greatly aid those who fight by their sides. Players can gather essence from slain enemies and other caches around the Dota map to guide which arcane powers the Mo'rokai develop.

Work together with your Mo'rokai to destroy the enemy Ancient and you'll earn 250 Battle Points for each victory, up to a weekly total of 2000 points.

Dota 2 Blog Dota Underlords
Jessecar posted a topic in Gaming NewsA few weeks ago we posted about our love of Auto Chess and how we were working on our own standalone version of it. In that same post we promised we would share information about the game soon. As it turns out, "soon" is today. Dota Underlords is a new stand-alone game that pits you against seven opponents in a battle of wits that will have you building, combining, and leveling-up a crew in a battle of dominance for the city of White Spire.

DOTA 2 BATTLE PASS PREVIEW For the last few weeks, we've been running a Friends and Family Beta, and today we're expanding it to include all Dota 2 Battle Pass owners. With your help, we'll be stress testing our servers as we prepare for our Open Beta. In the preview version, you'll be able to: Play online against seven other players. Practice offline against our lineup of advanced bots (from easy to hardcore difficulty). Party up and play together against bots or other players. Battle Pass owners can find a link to add Dota Underlords to their Steam library on the Dota 2 dashboard. After approximately a week of stress testing we'll transition to Open Beta. OPEN BETA Once the open beta begins, Dota Underlords will be available to everyone for free on Steam (Windows, Mac, and Linux), Android, and iOS. In addition, the team will be enabling the first set of new features, including: Ranked matchmaking. Cross-play across all devices. Rank and progression shared across all devices. Because the game is in active development, both the Preview and Open Beta have one important thing in common: we'll need your help to make the game the best it can be as we work towards Season One. BETA FEEDBACK We're sharing Dota Underlords fairly early in development. And while we intend to constantly be updating the game and adding features throughout the Beta Season, your feedback is critical to help the team know what issues are important to you. On the main screen we've added a 'Submit Feedback' button to the game. Feel free to wear it out. Tell us what you love, and tell us what could be better. We welcome it all.

Masterpiece was released on May 27, 2016. It is the band's debut album, and is twelve tracks long. Leading up to the album's release, four tracks have been released as singles.
The album was recorded in July 2015 in a house-turned-studio on Lake Champlain.
Regarding the cover, Adrianne Lenker said in an interview with Exclaim!,
Masterpiece is a photo of my mom and her two brothers. She was probably about 16, give or take a year. My sister sent it to me and it just resonated with everybody. It was the right cover. On the back cover of Masterpiece, there are two little boys and one of them is on the cover of Capacity.

I sat in my ward, sniffing and cursing my fate. I should've died the same day mom did, at least could've saved myself from this pain. Oh, mom, I miss your warmth so much. Till this day, I'd never let your absence bother me. Whenever I was upset or troubled, your voice soothed me and assured that you will always be in my heart. But now, I feel so wrong. I miss your smile, your touch, your fingers running through my hair, washing away all my tiredness and problems, lulling me into a dreamless sleep.
When I met him, things changed. He was my savior, my anchor. I trusted him more than anyone and held his hand in the dark. But did he have to push me off a dark cliff during the cold night and move on?
He crushed my soul and heart. Now that I'd left, he would be happy and relieved. He would no longer see me cry. He will never see me smiling or my ugly face. I will never bother him again.
This loneliness swallowed me whole. I am disgusted with myself and want it to end. His rejection has made me worthless. I ache all over. The bite marks on my shoulders, stomach, and chest make me throw up every time I look at them. I die every moment, feeling those ugly scars on my skin. They remind me of how pathetic, weak and useless I am. There is no way in hell, I will let them succeed for trapping me in this cage. If only he was here, standing with me.
If only...
I thought of his heart fluttering smile one last time.
Halting my thoughts and removing the IV from my hand, I reached for a sharp piece of the mirror under my pillow. Today I got it by breaking the one in the washroom and then hid it under my sleeve. They severely punished me for breaking their precious mirror and gave me electric shock treatment. Later when I woke up, I found myself naked, only covered by a thin sheet. There was soreness between my legs. It had happened 3 times before but, like always, I didn't cry this time or even scream, instead a victorious smile appeared on my lips. I had managed to slip out that mirror piece. Soon all this will come to a halt.
Grabbing the piece in my trembling hands, I brought it close to my wrist and bit my lip which was quivering, threatening to let out a sob. Tears streamed from my eyes. Never in my worst nightmare had I ever thought of finishing myself. I wasn't a coward. I was a star in my mother's eyes and the pride of my brother. But life hasn't left me any choice.
If only he gave me a chance to prove myself and believed me once, then things would've been different.
I tightened my hold on the sharp piece and made a deep cut on my right wrist gulping the pain down. It was nothing compared to what I had felt so far. Then, I repeated the action with my left wrist. This time, I sobbed. I sobbed over my decision. I wasn't a coward, but he didn't give me any choice.
Now, no one would touch me. I wouldn't hear those sinister laughs anymore. I will leave him alone.
Leave him alone to enjoy the Music of my Silence.
Sobbing lightly, I walked towards the small window of my room that was the only connection to the outer world. The moonlight coming from it illuminated the entire room and I sat beside it. Thinking about him and mom, I slipped into darkness as a bout of nausea hit me.

Published at Friday, February 08th, 2019 - 05:08:24 AM. Bedspreads. By Amia Fournier.
Bedding Bedspreads generally were used year around as bed room decor prior to all the different styles of bed covers used today. The old style bedspreads were either hand woven or machine woven depending on the time period and the availability of textile machines. Many different styles were used due to ethnic influence and time period they were woven.
When buying bedspreads, you need to know your bed's exact measurements. Doing that ensures that your bedspread will fit perfectly in place. Do away with the notion that getting a size bigger is okay. Do that and you'll end up with a bedspread that has filthy ends. That's not really appealing to look at, especially if you decided to bring home a guest with you.

Elite Millionaire Society App is one very dangerous scam that we are warning everyone to stay away from. Please read this review to see our evidence that Elite Millionaire Software is a scam!
The Elite Millionaire Society Video starts off with supposed "group members" of this Elite Fake Society giving testimonials about how the platform changed their lives. Then the presenter goes on to say how he discovered this ingenious system while looking online for ways to make money to save his marriage.
Thomas Boyles claims that this "free" software can earn profits of over $2,200 a day. The Elite Millionaire Society Scam by Thomas Boyles is a new auto trader in the industry. Our scam review is a complete negative since the Elite Millionaire Society is a bogus service without any credentials that aim to steal your money and to leave you back behind in the dust with a big zero in your account balance. So if you're one of those day trader who have also received their welcome email, make sure to read our full scam review and stay safe!
Elite Millionaire Society Review

Read some of the evidence we gathered to find out why you shouldn't be investing a single dollar! Elite Millionaire Society is allegedly created and run by 'Thomas Boyles' who is the main focal point of the Elite Millionaire Society promo video when you first land on the website. We immediately recognized the individual as a popular stock photo who we uncovered on numerous occasions as an actor who posed as the developer and or beta tester for other scams similar to the Elite Millionaire Society Scam.

Here is the real "Thomas Boyles" aka male model, NOT day trader.
The really ridiculous thing about Elite Millionaire Society is that the fake "Thomas Boyles" tells us that he only allows 20 people a year to use his system. Don't fall for this trap. This is a classic tactic my the Elite Millionaire Scam App to trick into investing in this software without performing any due diligence.
In the case of Elite Millionaire Society, "you been exclusively invited to the elite millionaires gate, you're about to get rich in 2 weeks!". If the above sentence sounds legit to you, then well, you got to work on yourself a bit. This is a 100% selling pitch that is far away from being true.
Elite Millionaire Society Fake Testimonials
Next in our Elite Millionaire Society app review we want to talk about some familiar faces in the testimonials section of the video. The first person we recognised instantly was "Lucy J Brook" also known as Carole Edward who is on a dating website.

Alle denken ich hatte keine talente bis sie sehen wie viel ich trinken kann shirt. Richie A Dixon, he did not win the popular vote but the electoral vote, jeez even this non-American knows that. Never seen one man so divide such a strong nation as the U.S. Downright scary. Raitis Beldavs that war with Yemen was going on when Obama was in office and weapons were being sold to Saudi Arabia then. Unlike his predecessor, Trump won't bow to the Saudi king and definitely won't give Iran $1.5 billion of taxpayers' money. Oh my God… The Red hat means people are hearing the truth and love it and people that are so used to being bullshitted are pissed. Not rocket science folks! Michelle Anderson No, it's not rocket science: The red hat identifies the wearer as fearful and eager to blame "those people" for all of their problems.
Alle denken ich hatte keine talente bis sie sehen wie viel ich trinken kann shirt. The lack of introspection is astounding. You support racism, misogyny, transphobia, homophobia, Islamophobia. That's the real truth. Children being forced to live in squalor in concentration camps on the border. You have a twisted set of values, Michelle Anderson Trump described his attempt to seduce a married woman and indicated he might start kissing a woman that he and Bush were about to meet. He added, "I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything." Michelle Anderson, There is no truth when TRump speaks!!!! Only lies, hatred. He is a coward with great insecurity. No one acts like he does that has any self-respect or dignity. I feel sad for those of you that think and believe what he says and what he stands for. The most dangerous man is alive!

What people said about thesunneversets's jam Crowds
3 Comments (since 21 Feb 2015)
Wasn't it "graduated" back in the day, bands that proved their mettle on 4AD were allowed to record for BB?
@thisismymistake Yes, I believe that was the original idea - 4AD would be a "tryout label" that bands spend a year or whatever on before moving up to Beggars Banquet. Of course 4AD quickly became a popular label with its own very distinctive identity and this ceased to make sense - in fact I think Bauhaus might have been the *only* band to move from 4AD to the parent label as per the originally conceived plan...
...hehe, the valentine's day jam...

Canon CanoScan 9900F Driver
Canon CanoScan F - for better Scans, buy SilverFast Scanner Software
This scanner was advertised for exactly this purpose. Most of the images on this page are reduced in size; to see the originals, click on the image in Canon CanoScan 9900F with the mouse. Summary Briefly, this scanner does not do the job I bought it to do.
I have tried to get Canon to fix it or supply documentation so that I can fix it myself. They have done neither.
- Canon CanoScan F Drivers Download - Update Canon Software
- Canon CanoScan F Overview - CNET
- CanoScan 9900F, drivers and Vuescan
- Official Store
- Canon CanoScan 9900F Flatbed Scanner
After many attempts to solve the problem, I have given up and am returning the unit. This means that I am looking for a new scanner.
If you are very happy with your scanner, please let me know about it. If you represent a scanner manufacturer, I'd be interested in hearing from you too.
CanoScan F Driver free download for Mac MacUpdate
In either case, I won't publish your messages without your consent. Unfortunately, the only way to interface to the scanner is via the Canon-supplied ScanGear CS driver, which has serious bugs. It cannot reliably recognize slides Canon CanoScan 9900F scanning.
Canon has acknowledged the issues and stated that it might take up to within six months Canon CanoScan 9900F fix them. Unfortunately, it seems clear that we are unable to satisfy your expectations with regard to the product Then then offer to replace it. These expectations are based on their advertising, which Canon CanoScan 9900F consider to be knowingly misleading.
As of 7 August their web site states: With a fast USB 2.
CanoScan F, drivers and Vuescan - Windows 7 - Tom's Hardware
A comprehensive software package, including Adobe PhotoShop Elements Canon CanoScan 9900F. I have lodged a complaint about the matter with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and have asked Canon to retract any advertising suggesting that this scanner is suitable for scanning slides.
The problem wouldn't be nearly so bad if Canon were prepared to document the hardware: Unfortunately, Canon seem to believe that this kind Canon CanoScan 9900F information is of such value that they categorically refuse to release the information. I have previously asked Canon to: Supply a functional driver, or Supply technical documentation so that I can write my own. They have refused to do either.
I was not interested in returning the unit, in which I have invested a large amount of time and effort, but it seems to be the only alternative. This incident has had Canon CanoScan 9900F definite result: In my opinion, the advertising is misleading, and they do not have the Canon CanoScan 9900F or the good will to do anything about it. Against such odds, the fact that they make quite good hardware is irrelevant.
The good news The good news is simple: If you're lucky, you'll get a thumbnail image like this: This shows, roughly, thumbnail images of the 8 slides in the machine. It's still not perfect: This is a relatively benign symptom of the problem: In this view, slide 1 is at top left, slide 4 bottom left, slide 5 top right, and slide 8 bottom right. There's nothing obviously wrong with the slides on the right-hand side; in Canon CanoScan 9900F, slides 7 and 8 are very well defined.
Canon CanoScan 9900F framing isn't just a cosmetic issue: For example, compare the raw scan and the finished image here:

Lake Mead To Receive $2M For Repairs
Published: Wednesday, June 6, 2018 - 12:06pm
Updated: Thursday, June 7, 2018 - 7:14am
The Department of the Interior announced Wednesday that the Lake Mead Recreation Area on the Arizona/Nevada border will receive $1,976,000 for construction projects.
The money is part of a $256 million program to chip away at the $11.6 billion dollar backlog of infrastructure and repair work affecting the National Park System in America. The Arizona money is designated to repair and replace a water intake barge with shoreline wells at Katherine Landing.
Lake Mead spokeswomen Chelsea Kennedy said the intake barge is complicated and needs constant repairs. The project will help ensure the entire recreation area has a reliable water supply.
Kennedy said there will not be a more concrete plan for the funds until they arrive.
