@Riot 2,000th Game +more

Original post http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?p=50235502#post50235502

Now I'm not one to post, in fact I've been reading the forums for a little over 3 years now. I am posting now because I've reached something amazing. I'm currently on my 1,999th win and I've realized something. If an average game of Summoner's Rift is around 35 minutes, at 1,999 wins and 1750 losses, I've spent over 2,500 hours playing League of Legends. This is not including the time and effort spent on studying most efficient builds, watching others, and reading the lore.

2,500 hours is not time waiting, this is pure game time. It's more than Just a hobby, it's a big part of my life. I To quantify this amount, in the book "Outliers", Malcom Gladwell writes about how 10,000 hours of experience expresses mastery of a practice. He claims that Mozart and The Beatles are not so much innate musical prodigies but grinders who thrived only after 10,000 hours of practice. I have practiced over 1/4th that amount and I am still learning. I don't believe anything can wane my determination and love for League of Legends.

The reason for me mentioning all of this is because just last month Riot was hosting an interview for Platinum + players for a job position in game balance. I would have flown out there immediately just for the chance to express myself. I know that if Riot had heard me, they wouldn't look past me. I have an encyclopedic knowledge of the game, and have taught friends mechanics on many champions. I've mentored and led my team to victory in Ranked 3s so we can all enjoy the end of season rewards. I don't play this game for the mechanics or the rewards, I play this game for the teamwork and camaraderie needed in order to win. This is no solo mission, you're queue'd up with 4 other summoners and trusting that they have the same ambition and strive for victory. "This is what I live for" -

I believe Riot has a great future, and I want to be a part of it.

Thank you for reading.

Camaraderie is my favorite thing about this game, so if you want to play feel free to add me. Teamwork and having fun are the best thing about League. <3
