                                      Message some officer like Melody, Satellizer or Havoc. I think they can invite you to the guild.

                                        This is true, I can do this.

                                        Joyeuse

                                          Melody, if I may so ask, as a user of your esteemed site and as a long time forum user of various and multiple sites,is there or will there be an option to track our last posted messages? (assuming the latter is true and I'm blind as a bat)

                                          This would make our forum experience much smoother as not all of us that use a single defined timezone.

                                          I hope you read this. Thanks.

                                            The options for us to keep track our last posts and threads will give us a much better forum experience.

                                              1. Melody is not part of Dotabuff and you will need to contact staff members of dotabuff. http://www.dotabuff.com/pages/about#support
                                              2. This is possible through a plus feature, where you can "Follow" yourself via the dashboard.

                                              I use it to follow friends, frenemies, and people I am helping to improve...

                                              or if you want to see what specific people post or you want to see their games you can do it from their profile.

                                                  Melody has been very helpful to users helping them with posts and making this guide without being asked and it was pinned by an admin. He has helped me on Dotaexchange.com and asides for the anime derails is quite helpful when prompted to be.

                                                  Either he or Satelluna can get you into the guild, or add me and I can get you in the dotaexchange one where most of the dotabuff people reside anyways.

                                                    Ah thank you for your extremely informative and efficient response, Havoc.
                                                    I'll check out the guild sometime.

                                                      No problem, I have also given you a month of free Dotabuff plus so you can see your rankings and follow yourself and others and if you like it please continue the subscription to help support on-going development on the site.

                                                      Your dashboard is your friend and it lays out most of what you need to know.

                                                          That explains. Good info havoc. The dashboard is very useful then.

                                                            Is there any place I can find the MMR ranges for the Normal / High / Very High etc. skill descriptions that appear on dotabuff matches? The majority of my games are Normal Skill, but occasionally I'll get a High Skill one and I'm curious as to exactly how high "High" is (and how terrible "Normal" is).

                                                            THICC BABY SHUM

                                                              NORMAL 1-3200 HIGH 3200-3800 3800-

                                                              Joyeuse

                                                                is that accurate?

                                                                I'm pretty sure Im not even remotely close to 3.8 and above, and I get clowns in my VH games.

                                                                salt enjoyer

                                                                  ^ this is also due to stacking. Let's say I am a 5K player stacking with a 2K player our average will be 3.5K which means there is a high chance that we will be in a High Skill game. I think you're in High Skill but when stacking with a certain group of people it pulls your average up.

                                                                  Joyeuse

                                                                    does this increment last temporarily (this means when I play solo I'm automatically allocated to my own skill level) or does it have a lasting impression? (like if I stacked with a VH player when I'm a normal player do I stay in VH?)

                                                                    Also, is the hidden mmr in Normals universal?

                                                                    does it have one defined value for both solo and party norms? or does it have seperate values which are independant on their own (thus making them only able to be increased via playing the respective norm modes)?

                                                                    salt enjoyer

                                                                      You have a hidden MMR that will go up if you consistently win, stacking with higher skilled players won't keep you in Very High if you then decide to solo. When you play solo it will put you in your solo assigned bracket instead of the overall bracket of your party, there are exceptions to the rule e.g. queuing at weird times and getting paired with 5K's which would put you in Very High because there's not enough players to fill your High game or vice versa.

                                                                      Unranked hidden MMR works in the same way ranked does and in fact, ranked cailbration is based of your starting point in hidden MMR, (or used to be?) which is why people were stacking heavily till calibration then spamming zeus/tinker for an easy 5.5K+

                                                                      Somethings to note:

                                                                      > Max calibration now is 5.5 but I think it's really hard to get even that.
                                                                      > Unranked solo, and party are the same value in hidden rating. *cit
                                                                      > You can move brackets in unranked by winning, in the same way ranked gaming works.

                                                                      > 0-3200 Normal
                                                                      > 3200 - 3700 High
                                                                      > 3700 - ∞ Very High

                                                                      Some of this is based of what I have read, seen, or my own understanding of it. The people who know the most about the in's and out's of how the system works are account boosters, sellers, and smurfs as they have approached every aspect of the ranking system to get the highest values possible.

                                                                      Joyeuse
