				It is something that I might do instead of ARAM, but not my main mode of play.  I want to hit the new season with the knowledge and understanding of the 4th season stuff.  Ranked games are way different than normal games.  So practicing in ranked right now when it doesn't matter is free practice.  Once season 4 starts, the only safe way to practice is in normals where you have idiots or people trying new stuff.  Hard to get a good team comp in normals.  So then you have to practice in ranked games that actually matter.
I'm not going to waste the preseason practice.

				I've got to admit, the Janna vs. Shyvana win was pretty epic.

				Meh.  The shyvannas were just epically stupid.  It's like beating a retard at checkers.  It's not very rewarding.

Burn.

				So last night we did a One For All game and we got Lee Sin.  Cake had mentioned that he was gonna go AP so our whole team wasn't doing physical damage.  And i basically said that would be the dumbest thing you could do and i just wanted to clear myself up on that and show you what i mean by that.
Here is a link to Lee Sin's abilities on Wiki:
http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Lee_Sin
Now when you look at his abilities here is what you get:
Q-  all physical damage and scales off of AD. 
W-  a shield that scales off of AP
E-   Does magic damage but scales off of AD
R-   Physical damage that scales off of AD
And of course all autoattacks always do physical damage. 
So now, if you were to get all AP items the only thing you would be increasing is his shield by 80% of your total AP.  That doesn't mean that all of your attacks are now doing magic damage. Yes, his E does magic damage but getting more AD is the only way to get that ability to do more damage.  So just throwing some AP on any ole champ will not automatically change your damage type.  
http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Shyvana
I know that Gordo had mentioned the other night that since Shyvana's fire does magic damage that she should just build AP. Well it doesn't work that way, sure you can build AP on Shyvana but you will only be helping out her E and her R.  Those abilities are not your main damage dealers and are on long cooldowns.  So you will always build AD and tank items on her. 
So i hope this clears things up a little on that because i got a little huffy with Cake because he mentioned building AP on Lee Sin.

				So. . . .
Where is everyone going?
All I know is:
Gordon wants out of top and Leisher wants a permanent position.
What's the status of Rifle?  I'm guessing he'll be moving on to bigger and better teams and we'll be able to count on him less.
I'm guessing Drexian will fill our fifth for us, but will also be on different teams as his primaries.
Do we want to try to recruit. . . again. . .  Over all, I haven't had a problem with our recruiting efforts, except that they normally think they can do better without us after we don't carry them to gold.  But, while they are with us, they are generally good team mates for the most part.
I'm down for whatever.  I have been practicing jungle, mid, support and ADC.  I have not been doing top, but I can.  So, I guess call what you want so I know what to start practicing.
I'm considering going support primary, fill secondary.  Not trying to step on toes. . . But, Stranger is available maybe once a week or so and we need a steady support.  Perhaps he's ready for a change as well.  Just when support gets a buff.

				I'm game to play any lane.
I think the role I'm least familiar with at this point would be jungle, not that it matters. I will leave my role for the team to decide. 
Rifle will be around. He's also indicated that he wouldn't mind going top if someone else wanted mid.
Drex is a fantastic teacher, and has the same, don't give up mindset. I think he'd be a huge asset to continue playing with.
As for recruiting, I think it'll depend on Stranger, Rifle, and Drex. Let's see where things stand, and if we need to grab someone, we do it, but we be more up front about what we're looking for...

				We are going to have two teams. . .  one that is all bronze players and one that includes our plat players.  When the plat people aren't playing, we are on our bronze team.  When they are, we are on the other team.  Are we playing the same role on both teams?  We will need to recruit a bronze or two for the bronze team.
And then the big question, when will everyone be ready to start season 4?
Lastly, I'm getting really tired of ARAM and 1 for All.

				Gordon would like Mid.

				I'm pretty much ready.
Can go mid or top.  Anything else, I am unpracticed.
Would like to learn support so I can solo more then when I get stuck with it I can be somewhat proficient and I wont hate every second of it.

I'm ready now. During these holidays I expect to be sporadic, but as I stated previously, if we have "the" 5 for either team, let's do it. 
I'm going where ever you guys tell me to go. I want a permanent position on the bronze team. I'll be willing to move around with the plats.

				Any idea how long the black out is going to last?  Starting to shop for a team to play with but don't want to commit if ours is coming back.

				I couldn't bring myself to play a TT with Cake and a hitler, tonight.  I just have no interest in playing with strangers on the team.  If we can't get a consistent team online, I will be out.

				With my wife scheduled to give birth this week i can't promise anything, i will be on when i can.  I have actually been on quite a bit this last week and never saw more than Gordo and Rifle so it looks like just about everyone has been taking time off.

				I was on every night for a couple/few weeks with no shows everywhere (except for Gordon.  Dude has no life) and stopped logging in and waiting for people like a bitch.
I guess I'm waiting for people to say "Ok, I'm back and this is when I can play" instead of just logging on every night and waiting and then logging back out 2 hours later.
