I could never get into Island Troll Tribes.  It was like DotA, extremely competitive playerbase that will murder you if you don't already know what to do.

Some other ones I thought of:

Winter Survival.  Everyone is stranded in a frozen wasteland and has to survive.  Last one alive wins.  Lots of item reactions, etc.

Happyville(? I think that's what it was called).  Everyone is a villager except for one or more randomly selected "bad guys."  A very wide variety of possible bad guys.

I can volunteer for tech support, having played the game for ages.

UltraValican, do you have a firewall?

I think they took at least one of the servers down, since when i tried connecting to US west recently it didn't work (for days and multiple attempts), and then I tried to connect to US east it has worked fine.

There were some really great custom maps out there for quite a while (even though they mostly ended up buried under a swarm of bot hosted DOTA).

I was a big DotA player here too.

But I did have a hand in making "Fortress Survival", "Custom Hero Arena", and "Zomg Zombies!". I used to be very involved in the WC3 mapping community :)

I quit though. All my friends moved on. Only people left are die-hard fanboiz for specific maps, and we all know fanboiz make shitty friends.
Fortress survival was pretty awesome.

They dont' have it.  Eh, it is probably int he top 5 best games I've ever played, and I've put more hours into it than any other game ever.

It's worth 40 dollars.

I've been meaning to play through the single player campaign of Frozen Throne again, but I haven't mustered the willpower.

Used to play DotA about a year ago, but the community is awful.
