How do you make it so that auto-join the NeoGAF channel on start up? A Google search makes me look for an autoexec.cfg which I simply can't find. Anyone have a clue?
EDIT2: Found how to access the console and used the chat_join NeoGaf there but it isn't automatically making me join the channel on start up. Sure typing it in every time isn't that much of a hassle but would like to know if there's a way to make it hassle free

Hey guys, astroboy is streaming a GAF tmm group at twitch.tv/dommynick
That game, needs some backstory.
We were down 3-10, I was level 2 as Drow when Slardar was 7 because of a Slardar Vengeful Spirit Sand King Tri-Lane, Slardar had an 8 minute Blink Dagger, Mid was under constant gank pressure, and Furion was forced to go into enemy jungle due to fear of gank.
Milkman pulled us out of the dumpster with big hooks, and we had some amazing team play, with early silence Drow build and good Ancient Apparition ults / Cold Feet stuns, combined with Kunkka Torrent's.
Funnest game that I've played in a while.

There are still people complaining about it on the dev forums. Seems fine to me, though.GhostRidah said:

oh it seems much better already. still feeling it though. i'm not saying it's a bad lag. i'm totally fine with it too. Just saying if you go back to wc3 dota you'll see what I'm talking about. very minimal differece though.
In a day I switch multiple time from Dota to Dota 2 and you can notice the difference. It's not as bad as it was though. I guess it's a little bit like going from BW latency to SC2 latency. It was a big deal until you played it for a few days/weeks and then it was the new norm.
I doubt it will bother me in the long run.

Got a string of 6 wins tonight, making my Win:Loss ratio 1:1.
So, does any one have plans on how we will handle the in house league with Dota 2 once we get enough people? I know HoN changed from some sort of team based thing to trying to rank each individual person between the two "Seasons" of their
If we can get enough people, I would love to actually try and set up a bunch of 5-8 man teams, and simply have them face each other every few days, throw some tournament from some token prize every few months ("A Copy Dirt 3 for each winner!"), and try to have "exhibitions" between people from GAF and maybe other websites (Something Awful and Reddit come to mind).
Maybe try to have each team face each other 5 to 10 times, and use the results from those games to try and seed a tournament of sorts.
Though with that many games, the number for each team to play could quickly get to a huge number of games. At even say 8 teams having to play 5 matches between each team, you would end up with 35 games per team.

The reason we changed from Teams to Tiered on the fly setup, is because when we ran Season 1 of the In House League we would have times where we couldn't play games because not enough people from a single team were present to fill the game, the tiered system got rid of this problem because games could be made regardless of who was online.
However we should do some HoN-Gaf vs League Gaf games sometime soon

What I want to see is how the rest of TF2 Gaf does at the game.
I really think a Team Based system would be best, but coordination would be difficult though. It really depends on the number of people actively playing, though form the looks of the Dota 2 Key topic, that may not be such a huge issue. You would need at least 50 people to make a Team Based system work. If you actually have teams, you can work on strategy at a bit of a higher level, and it would be so much more fulfilling as a play experience.
You would just need to have the balls to call a game a forfeit if one team couldn't make it (Or to play it out if it was 5 v 4 or something, and hope for the best), and maybe even kick a team out of an "official" ladder if they miss to many games. You would just need to figure out some way to determine who Won, and give rankings (Though simply counting up the number of Wins to Looses may do for that).
Also, just how the matches would be done. I think 1 a week may be a bit low, so 2 or 3 games a week would likely work best. Maybe just give each team 2 or 3 other teams to play a game against in a one week time, and have them work out when. Have the list drawn up for two or three weeks in advance, to give people more time to coordinate and such. Do 12 to 16 weeks per ladder, and do a little tournament.
One fragment of an idea I can't get out of my head is trying to challenge other websites and communities, and maybe trying to set up some matches or tournaments with them.

I know, I am just 'thinking out loud' here a bit. I think the game has a good chance of getting a fairly large Gaf player base, and was wondering if anyone had some ideas of how to try and managed the community to try and add a layer of depth.
I was hoping some people from other games like HoN and Starcraft would be able to share how their community things have gone, pitfalls they have run into, suggestions. I just would love to see gaf to really make a little in house sport of the game.
