As you know, you can !mode in DotA lobby and change the game type to anything. Right now, it only requires 3 votes to change it. Is it against the rules to change arem bot to another game type?

Rule: Do not lie about modes. If you intend to choose a non-default mode or if there is no known default mode, announce the mode in lobby or vote ingame/in lobby.
Means:
* If players vote in lobby to change the mode, that's fine. But inform others about the change if they've joined afterwards.
* If players intent to change the mode (e.g. ingame), announce it beforehand.
* etc
purpose of the rule is that all players are informed of a possible or already processed mode change. If that isnt the case, a punishment can be issued.
