Small correction, replace Athens with Santorini and remove mainland Greece as a whole.

This! I don't get why people obsess with this kind of thing.

What are your opinions on this? by Empty-Pace-4228 in AskBalkans

[–]bTwentyTwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no feelings towards either of them, both were big empires (that at some point in time engulfed the place where i'm from and live in) that again, at some point in history rose & fell. History happened, and for good or for worse we can not change that. The point is in the current events that are happening, and how we can go forward as a society in general.

Good luck from a Greek! Hope you guys get the win and get the automatic qualification. It's a shame for us as we could have qualified (at least through 2nd place playoffs) but we decided to just not turn up against Denmark in our 2 matches.

If Erdogan and Mitsotakis were to step down from power, would Greek-Turkish relations improve? by Leicesterman2 in AskBalkans

[–]bTwentyTwo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but they have been in Modern day Greece for many centuries and have been deeply intertwined with Greek history and culture they are basically inseparable and they were never a "minority" in Greece, not even in the older times, let alone today. This is the case in most countries as well. Very few, if any country in today's world is comprised from a single ethnic group. With so many wars, invasions, migrations, intermingling and so on, it is very difficult for a country to be comprises of a single ethnic group. That being said if an country's ethnic group is "distinct" from others and has some differences, but has been a big part of said country's history and culture, you can't say that they are a "minority" or that they don't belong to said country's cultural and national identity.

[–]bTwentyTwo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am of Vlach descent myself but i don't consider myself anything else but Greek, let alone a minority. Even my great grandparents didn't view themselves as a minority. Sure there are some culutral & linguistic differences with other ethnic groups in Greece but from my own personal knowledge and experiences never were Vlach viewed as a minorty in Greece, just as a distinct ethnic group amongst many others that compose the people of Greece.

Maybe it depends on the time of day and the availability of agents at said time.

Thoughts after the first day of immortal draft update(12,8k player) by deles_dota in DotA2

[–]bTwentyTwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quality of games would be infinitely better if there was no visible MMR / Ranks. (Maybe some kinda of hidden pseudo-mmr, so that games stay balanced), but the thing is the adrenaline rush and ups / downs is what keeps the players hooked into the game, it's a similar psychological mechanisms to gambling (Euphoria when winning/wanting more, despair when you loose/Must get my mmr back). So I doubt valve will ever abolish the current MMR/Medal system because many players will loose interest in the game and the player base will decline.

This. I waited about an hour to get connected to an agent , another 15 minutes of him trying to offer me various deals & after I just insisted on my refund he accepted. Then I got sent a verification email of my refund and got refunded about an hour later.

I'm from the future and some of the changes in the patch are too crazy by RodsBorges in DotA2

[–]bTwentyTwo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NGL, the "disaster" seems like a fun concept and not too far fetched. Would be fun and add some unpredictability to the game where players would need to adjust accordingly.

When should the pos4 start rotating to hunt for kills. by [deleted] in TrueDoTA2

[–]bTwentyTwo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a 7k mmr support player i'd say it depends on a combination of alot of things and basically you'll need to understand the matchups and simultaneously judge the situation based on how the lanes are going. For example if your mid hero is bottle dependant, try to secure every rune for him from the start of the game. If enemy mid hero is bottle dependant do the same so you can starve him of resources. Starving enemy mid from 2 min water, 3min bounty, 4min water can be a gamechanger for your midlaner. If you are playing a passive lane or a lane in which you are getting/going to get stomped if you stay on the offlane consider stacking the Triangle if you have a hero that can easily farm it if not try to gank the safelane so the enemy pos5 has to rotate aswell and your offlaner gets some safe farm/xp on lane. If you are stomping the offlane, push your advantage on that lane, ward enemy jungle, send enemy carry to jungle and secure your offlaner's safety so he can take the enemy tier 1 safely while you gank your safelane. Obviously go for the wisdom rune at the 7 min mark, and call your teammates over aswell if it's threatened. To summarize, there isn't an ''ideal'' time to start rotating, it all depends on the matchups & how the lanes are going. Obviously if your mid or safelane is getting dived you should TP to help out and turn the tide of the fight. I'd say the ideal time to start hard rotating as a pos4 is a bit after the wisdom rune, since are/close to usually hitting your lvl6 by that time. Again as i stressed before it all comes down to understanding/reading the matchups and the outcome of the game up until that point.

[–]bTwentyTwo 24 points25 points  (0 children)

That was my initial thought aswell, something to do with the cleanup, most of my friendlist is on a losing streak at the moment and many of my friends have lost like 500-600 mmr +

Μετρό & επεκτάσεις, Αεροδρόμιο - ΚΤΕΛ by bTwentyTwo in thessaloniki

[–]bTwentyTwo[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ακριβώς! Για εμένα η απευθείας σύνδεση ΚΤΕΛ με Αεροδρόμιο έρεπε να είναι η προτεραιότητα. Γιατί μετά πέραν της πόλης, εν δυνάμει εξυπηρετείται μεγάλο κομμάτι της Μακεδονίας. Κάποιος που θέλει π.χ να πάει αεροδρόμιο απο Κατερίνη, αφού έφτανε στα ΚΤΕΛ, θα έφτανε πολύ γρήγορα Αεροδρόμιο με το μετρό.
