    [size=20][color=#E9030E]Greetings and Salutaions DotaBuffers![/color][/size]
    This thread (I hope) will serve as the hub for all information regarding the sharing of DotaTV tickets. To those who don't know, tickets for dota 2 tournament games can be shared with party members. Using the open guild party function, a person with a ticket (or many tickets) can keep a party open and allow any member of the guild to join and leave the open party and spectate any live game in the Dota client. I will also (try) to use this thread to put up a list of games for the day. I'm still learning and testing this process out, so bear with me for any issues. I will keep an open party 24/7 for the few weeks to see how this goes, and how many people are interested (I'm going to use sandboxie and play an alt when I want to dota).

    [size=20][color=#E9030E]How It Works[/color][/size]
    [*]Be a member of the DotaBuff Guild.
    [*]Join the open guild party listed as 'DotaBuff Guild Ticket" or any other open party including a player with a ticket.
    [*]Then go to the Watch Tab in the Dota 2 client, select the live tournament game you want to spectate, and click watch.
    [*]Once you are spectating, please leave the group if there are more than 2 people in the group. This allows other players to join.
    [*]You can spectate any match that a party member owns a ticket for.
    [*]Use Dotabuff Guild chat while in game to speak with other players.
    [*]If you are a member of the guild, and are unable to join the open guild party, try creating your own open guild party, then disband it. Then try and join the open guild party again.

    [size=20][color=#E9030E]Frequently Asked Question[/color][/size]
    Q: I want to join the guild!
    A: It is an open guild run by KawaiiSocks and others. Ask to join!

    Q: I'm already in a guild! What can I do?
    A: It appears that you can be a member of more than one guild at the same time!

    Q: Can you invite my friend to the party?
    A: No. If a player not in the guild is invited to the party, the party will be closed, and guild members can no longer join on their own.

    Q: Why can't i chat in the game channel while spectating?
    A: Only accounts with tickets can chat in the game channel. You can use any other chat channel while in game.

    Q: How do I know when games are going to be live?
    A: You can find a list of games under the "events" tab. You can also find scheduled games at dota2lounge.com, gosugamers.com and joindota.com

    Q: I have tournament tickets and want to share them with people as well! What should I do?
    A: Awesome! Create an Open guild party as well ,and name it something relevant so people know. If you want, feel free to post here and I can add names to a list of other people who will make tickets available.

          can we get heroic drops without tickets?

            ^ I can not confirm, but Benao has told me that players without tickets can get heroic drops while spectating in DotaTV.

                      Think this is a good thread to talk about bettings

                      all games are bo1, I think iG can win against DK

                        ^
                        All for any pro related talk and betting talk.

                        For today: I have not decided between IG or DK. DK is on a huge tear and hasn't lost a match in awhile, but IG has been playing better and better. I will say that I don't feel comfortable betting against DK, but IG doesn't deserve the odds. Betting DK is risky with little reward, and betting IG is also risky, but with high rewards. I will most likely pass this one. Frankly i think I will abstain from VG vs LGD.cn as well. VG has been playing like crap and dropped several games including to LGD, but you never know when they will get over their slump and get it together. That said the odds for LGD are crazy.

                        Starladder BO1 are the definition of Yolo betting. They are very risky. Now that i wrote that... i want to bet underdog... damnit

                          from the records, shit always happens with Navi

                          FlipFlop

                            nope, dk is always free key since sina cup season 2. 4 playmaker and one farmer is too damn awesome.

                              I would normally agree Flop... IG 2/0ed DK in G-league, but then came back in Grand Finals for 3/0. That was an IG without Chuan though, and the new IG has been improving a lot. Bet is too skewed for the risk for me.

                                    Typical that i got a window update shutdown while sleeping after i made this post. Looks like it was after the first two matches though.

                                        yea i wish i sacked up and placed those underdog bets, but playing it safe never lost any rares :).
                                        Rest of today's games are horrible odds, and underdogs don't deserve bets... except sigma vs fnatic... but who the hell knows whats gonna happen in that game. Fnatic is either full man mode or full throw, sigma is in flux, and its captains draft.

                                                  @Sat... i don't see you online in the list of guild members. People have been joining and leaving though. There is no issue with inviting you if you are in the guild, i just might not see it.

                                                          P.S. I purchased the Ronin Dota 2 tournament ticket. Ill update the main post tomorrow.

                                                              We are using it, but we leave the party after getting in the game. I think Valve will patch this at some point, but for now it works great!

                                                              Can someone pin this topic, or link it in the guild first post?

Images links are borked in the ticket list and the pictures and text wont show up properly unless less i put in extra image links in, so those extra ones don't show up and the images links after that are able to show up.

                                                                    This is very frustrating.
