now I'm level 9, almost 10.

Agreed

I understand that you can lane or jungle if you want to. however, there are characters that are better built for certain tasks. it really annoys me when an inexperienced jungler is laning or vice versa. problem is particularly painstaking later on when you actually need the junglers to take care of their business. for example, adagio is not a great jungler. if i choose him, and the team is all laning, i cannot effectively kill for the mines, let alone krakken.

I have had similar issues. unfortunately, i too had to leave early (once.) just takes some planning, on my part. one way to make yourself completely available for the game is to play when you have the time, turn on the "do not disturb" on iPhone and make sure you have a charger available. my two cents. =)

unless you purchase them, of course.

someone is communicating because i've witnessed groups that have very coordinated efforts/ strategies. i think they are either using IM or some other chat.

i've had a similar experience. that is one of the many reasons this game is so awesome.

i think people are using other things like facetime, google plus or something like that. i've played in too many games where there seems to be better coordinated efforts. what do you think.

i'm obviously not playing enough. Karma level 8 and rising

So I'm 44 male. I'll also add from the island of Samoa.
