Seems to be down right now - or at least, it's reading as Offline on US East.

Bot has been updated and is now running on 1.24c.

The new Ghost has a GUI config, which is where I found out map download speed is shared between players, and not a limit per player, so I cranked it up to 150kbps instead of 40kbps.

Last time I changed to non-all pick, people were all like... "mememememememememememememe"

So...!

Make a poll!

Well I know a lot of people voted for not all pick so maybe alternating them wouldn't be a horrible idea

A better option would be if someone could setup a second bot.

Alright I'm going to set up a bot, but I need to obtain a RoC key and possibly a TFT key if my extra doesn't work for some reason.

Does anyone have these?

It's a bad idea. Even now it takes forever for HostEm games to fill up.

Make an option for bot admins to tell the bot to set the next game's mode do XYZ.

It is possible to add such a feature to the bot, but I'd have to fish about the bot's source code, 90% chance it will be loaded with compiling errors, untouched. I'd also have to do it every time there's a new bot version. I think the best solution is to have a "bot hosting" option in advanced hosting options for EotA, where choosing the mode will be voted in game, and same with choosing your team's race as the first two options. I'd rather take this sort of thing into my own hands, but the most stable solution lies with changing EotA to better fit it.

You mean how incredibly hilarious stun chains are? Or banish/nuke chains?

Yeah, I know... Like Sigil of Stunning (Rune Knight), Pilfer (Swashbuckler), Hold Person (Aeromancess), Entangle (Familiar from Arcane Archer), Concussion (Smoke Cloud from Infiltrator)... OH WAIT! That's one race.

DotA can send commands to ghost bots, why can't EotA?

Because this bot was originally created to host dota games only. It can host pretty much any map now, but its still programed to play best with dota.
It's not rape if you yell surprise!
