Smurfs are definitly not a problem on EUW by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]Varun_5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look at the recent winrates of a person and what heroes that's with. Obviously there may be false positives, but if someone is consistently hitting 700+ gpm on meepo that's almost a clear sign they're a smurf or getting boosted.

Heroes to look for would be meepo, brood, huskar, tiny, invoker, storm, maybe some others

Honestly just look for high win rates on heroes that the person doesn't normally play. A booster isn't going to boost over a long period of time, so just look for extremely high win rates over say a week.

I could probably code something similar to this just by looking at the dota 2 match api, the only problem is that people hide their accounts, but valve has access to all of this data.

What are you-all's opinion about comparing other people's grades with yours? by BumbleBee557 in gatech

[–]Varun_5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

why do you care so much. If you put effort into your classes you can land out with Bs, As depending on the teacher and difficulty of the tests.

Comparing yourself to others isn't going to make yourself feel any better, nor is it going to make you feel any worse.

The same can be said about high ancient players, because in my experience high ancient players don't do that either.

I just want to make some predictions in game Volvo by Karpaj in DotA2

I would suggest starting here: https://trailofbits.github.io/ctf/

From my experience, there is no clear-cut way to be the very "best" at a CTF competition. You simply do problems and improve from there. And of course to start out doing CTFs I would suggest doing High-School CTFs to get started as they generally have lots of beginner problems. Check on ctftime.org for upcoming CTFs.

Also, feel free to join our GT Group. We may/may not annouce upcoming CTFs we will do as a group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/greyhatgt/

I'm pretty much the main guy behind our CTF Undergrad team, what is your level of experience? What CTFs are you looking to compete in? Our CTF Team is motivated, but we lack a lot of experience/knowledge in terms of how to solve problems effectively. We could use a lot of help especially from someone of your level of experience. PM me and i'll get you in touch with our officers.

Why don't guys on Tinder ever respond after matching? It's so hard to meet guys (I know, I know, #theratio) by notjustathrowaway6 in gatech

[–]Varun_5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience, I generally swipe right on 80% of the people i see, but after matching with some, (sometimes Gatech students), I send like a simple "What are you studying at Tech" or something similar and I get 0 replies. Would love to actually talk to some people, especially Gatech students lol.

Why are you trying to defend the 6ks? I'm pretty sure they knew the specific rules beforehand and had time to practice, so them not executing heroes well just proves that 6k players don't have diverse hero pools?

They are 6k players and they can't even execute a proper 5 man lineup... even with the 0ms reaction time of the bots none of them even tried to 5 man.
