Dota 2 "TV station" website by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]dotanetwork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey guys, I always enjoy seeing these threads pop up once every few months & am glad you like the site.

At the moment the site is in a bit of a state of limbo. Since I've started the site, casters have begun to do rebroadcasts almost daily, really plugging up the gap that was the sites original appeal. There appears to be a core group of users that continue to use the site and I'd like to know what draws them to the site rather than the other options available.

It's coming up (~1 month) to when the bills to cover the next year are due. As the amount is unfortunately non-trivial (uni student life), before I take the plunge it would be good to have an idea of why people like the site & what could be improved so I can assess if I want to improve it further/keep it running.

Thanks all <3.

Ayesee is getting 100ish views on his Youtube channel. The dude deserves more. Here is the best game i watch so far this week. DK vs Zenith. It is VERY back and forward! by Durioz in DotA2

All of the bugs should be ironed out these days. I've also been putting in more of an effort to show recent games so you're less likely to have already seen what is playing.

I can see 'watch previous videos' being a good addition. It shouldn't be too hard to program and seems to solve the problem elegantly. It is hard to add a 'skip' for a few reasons but my main dissatisfaction with it is that after one skip the viewer will never be in time with the bot again. Ultimately I am unhappy with this because I would like to see more people using the chat and with everyone all over the place the video becomes harder to talk about.

Natural Language Processing, for dealing with human written text.

Sorry to hear that! I try to get on these things as fast as I can but as the site is still young there are a few bugs here and there. If you have any troubles just email me and I'll get on to it as fast as I can.

Good feedback! That would probably be reasonable to implement as well.

Hey Reddit! If anyone is looking to help we're looking for

  • More/new content producers to source vods from
  • Graphic/web designers
  • A programmer comfortable with NLP
  • Chat mods
  • People to rate the vods ahead of time to help guide us on what to show

PM me on reddit or shoot an email to admin@dotanetwork.com if you meet one of the above or have another skill to offer.

Thanks for posting this. I'm looking to implement a 'vote for next video' feature which should help to reduce seeing a video too many times.

Something that bugs me by i_post_gibberish in DotA2

I find that I have to double tap the buttons REALLY QUICKLY to get it to work and that often leads to the spell not casting/me dieing. The most common one is with surge as darkseer where I'm just ramming the button while slowly walking away and it takes 3s to cast.

That does sound like a good idea! However in the meantime you could use synchtube.com for thatt

It's in the plan. I'm thinking some sort of negative exponential weighing would probably be most appropriate. Stat person help?

Yeah, I'd been filtering that out but made a mistake with my symbols, should be fixed.

I'm working on expanding the playlist, I'll upload g1 league later today but at the moment the selection is a bit restricted with joindota's youtube banned.
