To end the evening on a positive and less confusing note, after a number of nasty solo games in DOTA tonight I ended up in a 5-stack with one of the players from one of those games and his friends. We'd bonded over how bad the last pick "4th carry" Chaos Knight was and went onto play some great games against fake rOtK and people with random chinese characters in their names. Thanks to Fawn, Rob, Dogmeat and Healthcare for a fun time. If you're having awful games and you run into someone you get along with, considering partying with them for future games, it can be a good experience.
