If you have accidently updated to v1.24, there has been a new DotA version released recently v6.61c that allows you to basically play 6.61b. The

Quote from IceFrog:

map has no changes except the version string.

I have also updated this map in the 'Rules' section (from v6.61b to v6.61c). This has been changed in regards to people accidently downloading the new WC3 patch (If they play on Battle.net). As the matches are played on Garena, people on the new patch v1.24 can't see v1.23a hosted games and visa versa.

Please do not update to v1.24 just yet.

I recommend and advise that all teams use the Warcraft 1.23-1.24 Version Switcher.

If however, you NEED to use 1.24 (say, someone else in your family accesses Battle.Net), then I suggest you download a Warcraft 1.23-1.24 Version Switcher. The link is here: Warcraft 1.23-1.24 Version Switcher

(Tutorial in link provided)

As teams from GGC are all using 1.24, I strongly suggest that all teams use this program to easily switch between versions.
