DIHL

[BurritoCarcass]

Hey, I know a while ago there used to a dota inhouse league. Is there a way to get it back? I have a bunch of people who would love to create and be a part of a league to get better. I could handle most of it and everything and I can gather everyone that is interested. I think it would be a great way to let the better players have a more competitive game market.

I would tryout for it. Sounds like fun to me

And if done right, it would be strictly -cm. I could organize a clan on bnet for this and use a part of the forum to mediate all of the players. I also think @iconnect would be interested in something like this. Oh, and @edgeofchaos

Sounds intresting.

I'd be down, though I think the necessity for DIHL is limited if and when we get the 20 win/high stay rate requirement in all the normal DotA bots and establish noob bots for those who don't meet the criteria yet.

It would be like LIHL, you have to be vouched into the league. It won't be a simple process. But I think it's a good idea to give the better players something to do besides pub.

The in-house league for DotA was removed due to lack of popularity. I doubt it'll be as successful as LIHL even with a relaunch.

I already have roughly 20 people who would be interested. There will be more as soon as I can actually see if the admin will allow it. I'd love to manage it. My clan on east inhouses about 2-4 times a day, which is basically what the inhouse league would be like. I think its lack of success before was due to the fact that there were not the correct promoters. Iconnect and I played four inhouses yesterday and several the day before, I think I speak for both of when I say that we would love to be in charge of it and manage it. I have a bunch of great ideas of how to increase popularity and I really do know a lot of dota players that would appreciate this. I would take full responsibility for it and do as much of the work as I can, I'd really like to give this a try. @agreements @uakf.b @dreathknight @iconnect

I say we let him run it. The Dota in-house league was not promoted nearly as well as LIHL was. I'd be very interested in joining it.

I literally have too much free time right now and for the next month. I would make a clan on BNET for DIHL. There would be a stats page (an excel sheet) for captains update their stats against other captains. We could make a separate forum section for it where I would post this sheet, the place to request access (or vouch), the basic inhouse rules and focuses (positions), new and other pertinent things. I was on teamspeak with several people last night, we had roughly 15 come in and out in just a few hour span. I am constantly trying to pull people into this, got a few new players yesterday. I would really love to give this a try, I will discuss a few more details with everyone after we got an idea of possible this is.

Hell, we could even make this an announcement in all of the dota games, something like "Do you like inhousing? Are you tired of pubs? Try out for DIHL today by either dropping by clan DIHL or checking the forum!" That's as corny as possible, but you get the idea. Every night I pull a bunch of players together to inhouse, I check vents, teamspeaks, east, west and pretty much every possible, if we can get these people in one location, this could be a very fun way of playing dota on Ent.

I would be interested to help/join.

I have 5-6 players that use to play in cal leagues that would play LIHL.

[BurritoCarcass]

I just need some type of comment from @uakf.b or a green or red and I can start this process. I really have a lot of people, right now even, that are interested in reviving this with me.

[uakf.b]

Need to make clan some time. I resurrected the forum though.

[BurritoCarcass]

Should I remake clan EIHL? Also, can we just remove the old EIHL and make a whole new one? I think it would be good to delete all of the old stats and vouch requests so we can start fresh. Once I make the clan, will you be able to get all of the bots and stuff running? @uakf.b
