ENT Gaming

We're testing out some new game lobbies that require 20 wins and a high stay rate (either stay percentage above 90%, or leave percentage below 5%) to join. Currently, bots for DotA apem, DotA rd, and Legion TD Mega are online. The idea is to keep out those who ban dodge, smurf, or rage quit, and host games where people can develop a reputation.

We decided to get rid of the old high-ranked games and replace them with these bots because of inactivity. So, you can type "/w Clan.Enterprise !g HR" to see a list of the new games, or just check the gamelist. They may be renamed in the future.

The original suggestion can be found here: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=12380

nice!

Sounds great!

Please extend this to LoD games as well if it has any success, we have plenty of smurfers/glitchers/ban dodgers/hackers on these bots.

Doesn't look like it's working, the games are still on #1

I would rename the games as HR is used to be ignored by 99% of the players since no game ever started there (at least in Legion TD).
I would suggest an easy to understand name like "no leavers" or something into that direction.

The best way for this to take off is to make the normal games require it and rename HR to "NOOB" bots for people who don't have the 20 wins and decent stay rate

I just wanted to bump this thread again. I like the idea of this game type, but it still is never used, most likely because the name is still HR which was a synonym for never-gets-started.
Many players wish a casual game without leavers/total noobs and this would be a good solution for them. I still think an eye-catching name would make these games very popular.

How about "[ENT] DotA APEM NO LEAVERS #xx" - and then branding all the other games "[ENT] DotA APEM LEAVERS OK #xx" -- since, you know, that's how the games are actually played.

Except not really, since leavers get banned (and sometimes those bans are quite harsh)

Thats like tagging all ENT games with "RUINERS ALLOWED HERE!" because some people ruin the game regardless of the punishments.

I'd like to add if this could be done to Island defense it would be so nice.

No, although it would be nice, I can guarantee it will miserably fail. Please don't do this for Island Defense.

Autoban is disabled for Island Defense, so before considering anti-leaver games, turning autoban on better solution.

Autoban should only be disabled for games where leaving doesn't affect the leaver's team negatively.
