  1. Ben Costin
  2. hey managed to add you on steam, i think my friends list was full
  3. John Farhat
  4. 5:21pm
  5. John Farhat
  6. Hey there, no worries I will be on later
  7. If you have any questions about the team or want more info let me know
  8. Ben Costin
  9. 5:26pm
  10. Ben Costin
  11. Ok
  12. Where are you located?
  13. John Farhat
  14. 5:29pm
  15. John Farhat
  16. The team house is in townsville Queensland. And only because I was able to get NBN internet there.
  17. Ben Costin
  18. 5:29pm
  19. Ben Costin
  20. I guess it seemed obvious from your email address
  21. John Farhat
  22. 5:29pm
  23. John Farhat
  24. Yeah
  25. Ben Costin
  26. 5:30pm
  27. Ben Costin
  28. What sort of skill level of players are you looking for?
  29. And what skill level are you at currently?
  30. John Farhat
  31. 5:32pm
  32. John Farhat
  33. I'm looking for the player with the skill level that believes they have the capacity to be the best, whether you've played 500 games or 5000, its mostly about the dedication and motivation
  34. Ben Costin
  35. 5:35pm
  36. Ben Costin
  37. ok fair enough
  38. Well im interested in the whole idea
  39. But i have a few concerns
  40. as some of my mates in america have tried this sort of thing
  41. And people in your position have used their investment (housing/food) as a chip for blackmail/justification of their wishes within the team
  42. i.e. demanding place as captain/role they want to play
  43. John Farhat
  44. 5:43pm
  45. John Farhat
  46. We're not going to have a captain, each person is going to dedicate themselves to perfection and mastery at the game, which includes smooth and efficient team communication, we'll be discussing various strategies as a team
  47. Ben Costin
  48. 5:44pm
  49. Ben Costin
  50. as well as just poor living situation due to resentments
  51. Ok sure
  52. Don't take this badly, just saying this is some problems ive seen/heard from people who have done this sort of thing
  53. John Farhat
  54. 5:45pm
  55. John Farhat
  56. Anyone that acts emotionally or is offensive to another, or is immature in the sense of lacking good communication, they will be asked to leave
  57. But I would accept that sort of person in the first place
  58. Wouldn't* sorry on the phone
  59. Ben Costin
  60. 5:47pm
  61. Ben Costin
  62. ok sure
  63. And this is the big one for me, what is your current skill level and what makes you believe that you have the potential to be a 6k+/pro level player
  64. Because they way i see it, everyone else is replaceable
  65. John Farhat
  66. 5:54pm
  67. John Farhat
  68. Im relatively new to the game with 506 games, thus I haven't had much opportunity to play dota properly with a team, I don't believe you can even play dota without a proper team, thus my current skill level is only as high as 506 games without a full team allow, as I definitely outshine players at my level, but for me that isn't even remotely important, and I would accept any gamer who had never played dota if I knew them to have gaming experience and to be intelligent and capable, basically, in short answer, I don't believe I have the potential to be a 6k+ pro level player, instead, I know I definitelly will be in the top 5 players in the world along with the team, and will definitely achieve mastery at the game
  69. John Farhat
  70. 5:55pm
  71. John Farhat
  72. Therequirement is 100% dedication, along with all that entails, and that's basically it
  73. Ben Costin
  74. 5:58pm
  75. Ben Costin
  76. i see
  77. so likely that there will be plays of vastly different skill levels in the house?
  78. John Farhat
  79. 5:59pm
  80. John Farhat
  81. I'm not sure about the other players, so far I've only spoken to 4k and 5k+ players, but again, the skill will come from the extensive long term team practice
  82. And its not only about the in game practice, but also about innovation, studying games, strategy, learning in depth game mechanics, preparation and repetition
  83. Ben Costin
  84. 6:02pm
  85. Ben Costin
  86. ok well im moderately interested, i currently live near cairns so it isnt that far for me to go but im originally from brisbane
  87. John Farhat
  88. 6:02pm
  89. John Farhat
  90. Awesome, I'm currently on holiday at my apartment in port Douglas
  91. But I rented in townsville for the NBN
  92. Will be driving back there in a couple days
  93. Ben Costin
  94. 6:04pm
  95. Ben Costin
  96. ah ok
  97. John Farhat
  98. 6:05pm
  99. John Farhat
  100. Anyway, I'll keep you updated on the progress with putting together a team, and if you're interested you can let me know and I'll talk to you on Skype at some point to discuss it further
  101. Ben Costin
  102. 6:06pm

  106. John Farhat
  107. 6:06pm
