I have requested a mentor via PM. Waiting for answer.
Ok cool, let me know if they respond and who it is.

Howdy!

I'd like to request the mentor-ship of Turtl for some help with my ZOOTsuit Samus.

I've PM'd you, just waiting to hear back :)

Much appreciated!
Cool, let me know if Turtl responds.

I am posting to say that Venomout has responded.
Excellent! Thank you.

Go ahead! :)

My second one in two days O_O Never expected people to actually care about Zelda xD

Oh and KrazyGlue, you can also add me as a Sheik mentor since there apparently is none. I dual main both Zelda and Sheik so I can teach both.

Haha, nice! Well if you ever need a load off your shoulders, tell other Zelda mains about the program! :awesome:

EDIT: So I'm assuming that means you've accepted the request, right? Should I add this to the list of mentorships?

Yeah, it's been kinda the same deal with the mentoring program. Business was pretty slow until we introduced the banner to spread the word, and now things have sped up quite a bit.

Ok, that sounds believable. You should still PM me and Juglefever with relevant info though. We already have your name and contact info obviously, but if you have separate tourney results from where you used Sheik or something like that, that would be helpful.

Alright, thanks guys. I'll add these mentorships to the list.

EDIT: JoWiiCIDE, I looked at your suggestion from earlier and added it to the OP under the "Ways to Make the Most out of Your Mentoring Experience" list. Fuelbi, I'm going to do your suggestion as well and add a whole new section to the OP for it, but that will take a bit longer. Yeah, I'll probably add people who make suggestions to the Special Thanks section.

Awesome KG. I'm glad I could help and I'm just bidding my time til another Kirby drops in here.

Best of luck to the rest of my mentor buddies in your respective mentorships.

Hey guys, I'm Sveet. Junglefever accepted me as an additional Melee mentor.

I don't know much about brawl, but I'm curious about the game in general. I used to play ICs when the game first came out but never did a brawl tournament.

In melee I play fox in tournament but play pretty much every character for fun. I mained marth for the last 5 or so years, on and off, but finally put him down for good. My favorite character to play varies so I've spent a good amount of time with every character.

If you have any questions about melee at all, let me know. :awesome:

Types of mentors

Brawl Mentors: Here to teach you about the competitive aspects of brawl. Anything from matchup analysis to counterpicking stages, mentors can help you every step of the way!

Melee Mentors: Here to teach you about the competitive aspects of melee! Advanced tactics, matchups, you name it! We've got a mentor for it.

Pokemon Mentors: Here to teach you about the competitive scene of Pokemon! Everything from teams to movesets, we've got you covered.

Debate Mentors : Here to teach you about debating and the debate hall of SWF. Learn to create a logical argument, what logical fallacies are and how to use sources properly! (Note: Debate mentoring is a work in progress. Contact Junglefever or KrazyGlue for more information.)

SMASH 64 MENTORS:
I know we're not the most popular board but there are definietly mentors for this game, i would sign up to be a mario mentor, but it first has to be introduced. >.>

edit: sending my application to junglefever;and hopefully we can get even more smash 64 mentors.

We're happy to accept smash 64 mentors (I might need one; I'm a new 64 player myself!). However, since requests will likely be fairly low (as with melee), we're generally only looking for a few people who have a solid amount of knowledge in every character.

Latias hasn't responded to my request for Ness training yet. About 4 days I think. I can wait longer but was just wondering if there are any other Ness mentors around.
No, if there's no more listed, we don't have any more. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience. :c

We'll contact Latias for you and try to straighten things out. I'm not the yelling type, but I'll go get Junglefever to do it. ;)

OK, thanks for the quick reply. I'll probably switch to a Marth mentor if Latias doesn't respond soon.

Dynomite. If you're suggesting that you'd like to apply as a mentor, go ahead! We're ALWAYS happy to accept more mentors, as long as they're qualified.



Lol.

That would be two for you, Turtl. Can you handle it?
Yea i can take on another person. I already pm'd him with my contact info and whatnot.

Okay well I'll apply as a Toon Link mentor...

I really don't have tourney results besides getting 5th in Apex pools, but I do know a lot about the character because I read so much about him and have watched so many tournament matches/gotten advice from pros at the tourneys I've been to.

Ok, PM your application with any tourney results, other qualifications (verifiable ones preferably), and the best way to contact you. :)

EDIT: By the way, if the other character you were considering mentoring is one that we currently don't have a mentor for, we'll consider adding you for two.

Send me and Junglefever a PM with your qualifications (some tourney results are helpful) and the best way to contact you.

I still haven't gotten a response on Pokemon Trainer mentoring. Is anybody else available to do it?
No, sorry. We'll go talk to your mentor and get them to respond.
