So I tried Dota2 for a bit. managed to put in 80 hours in 20 days while working lol.
The game is aight, players are terrible though in matchmaking so many games are just steamroll one sided or one disconnect. It crashed quite a few times for me and don't like stuff like small health bars, liked the dota ones better for last hitting.
The guides sort of take out the fun of dota. . . trying out new items now everyone has the builds right in there, it's all very aimed towards new players.
I like the commend and report systems, dota players are jerks including me but hunting for commendations teaches you manners

Anyway it was fun trying all the heroes in new graphics, but it's getting boring now so I'm uninstalling steam and going back to poker. I really don't have enough time to get to high levels where it gets fun

work
taking a 5 day break from work. There was a lot of stuff like getting paid £270 instead £750 one week, days that are wasted and I don't learn anything in the office, basically i want to do sales and this is still just surveying lofts and walls, and we have been promised a proper product for 4 months now, and this being boring with delayed payments, money taken out of our pay for no reason etc.

A bit negged out, tried playing poker on the side just got de-motivated when I had to take out 70% of my roll because didn't get paid properly. Set weekly goals with rewards for floorball equipment, reached the weekly target and then couldn't buy the stuff next week cause I didn't get paid properly. The owners are motivating us by chilling and telling us how much money they made and that we can do it too, but when your boss is lazy you will tend to do the same.

Was promised B2B product and alarms, which should be again fun though. I take selling as a sport or poker, the preparation is very much the same and it feels like performance, but I just didn't get that looking for walls and lofts that weren't insulated for free yet and then spending time on surveys and paperwork, this year feels wasted rly.

poker
well with dota there was no time, and I'm so rusty :D
I hit a downswing when I was ill, playing badly too but nothing serious. I will get back into it and start blogging again. Dota is such a poison lol.

If anyone playing NL25 -50 wants to chat pm me your skype I'll be on over the weekend
