The Smashboards Mentoring Program!

[DtJ Jungle]

send me a PM about it.

 

[Black Star]

I'll see if i know someone that could be a good brawl mentor if i can!

 

[Magik0722]

So how many mentors did you find yet?

Am I the PT mentor?

 

[Infinite Emerald]

I think I'd prefer "Do you have problems?"

I do too, I just put that there for other, (more random), reasons.

 

[DtJ Jungle]

Sorry guys, I need a bit more patience from everyone.

Everything is pretty much in stone except for two things

1) notifying the mentors who are mentors and what role will be expected of them.
2) The OP. I need to go over it to make sure it sounds right and fix a few things with it.

 

[ZeroL]

I've send you an PM regarding the whole mentor thing, Junglefever.

 

[DtJ Jungle]

heh I've read all the PM's, I'm just trying to fill in slots where theres no character representation for the time being and drafting up my 'acceptance PM'

 

[Infinite Emerald]

Take all the time you want. I'm just glad its going to be organized!

 

[Black Star]

Hmm, have you asked any of the online tournament hosts here to see if they know any good mains of any character that could help people that request training on Wi-fi?

Maybe that could help a bit!

 

[arch knight]

If i had a wii still i would be happy to teach anyone the ways of metaknight -the right way >.>- and wolf but at most i can only critque videos and verbal lol.

 

[Black Star]

Arch Knight has 666 posts xDDDD

 

[highfive]

Not anymore. posting to bump.

 

[Fuelbi]

So how bout them new system?

 

[highfive]

Just wait. Ya'll can't just rush stuff man.

 

[Fuelbi]

I'm asking for a progress report, not the freakin results man

 

[highfive]

Patience. The finishing touches are probably being put on now.

 

[Infinite Emerald]

Wow, we mentors sure are impatient.

 

[-_skinny_-]

umm anyone wanna start teaching me the ways of the snake? im gonna try to second him for tourneys and such

 

[Infinite Emerald]

Hmm, I don't know anything about snake but I bet you can find someone.

 

[highfive]

I could do it. I'd only be a crappy teacher at the start since I'm pretty rusty but I used to be above average with Snake.

 

[Frown]

Junglefever will take care of it once he returns. He'll be away for a few days.

[DtJ Jungle]

Everyone

I owe all of you a huge apology. I didn't deliever on the date i promised to have this done by a long shot. However, I have all the mentors selected and the email perfected.

I'm dead beat from a wedding today, so tomorrow these messages will be going out to the newly appointed mentors!

 

[KrazyGlue]

Cool, it's good to see this program finally starting up.

 

[highfive]

Ya y

Hey,

I recently switched to Yoshi as my main, but I could use a tutor to help me get off the ground (and hopefully show me around the site as well), preferably one with Wi-Fi.

I'm new here, so I don't know who would be best for the job; Yoshi is a very...unique character to handle in SSBB, and probably calls for a specialist to teach.

Thanks!

 

[-_skinny_-]

yeah he is, i used to main him and im quite good with him. im no mentor so dont take my advice too seriously, but you shld try not to use his second jump wen ur off the unless you absolutelly HAVE to. i always use his upB for getting back on the stage so i lose the risk of getting footstooled to my doom and having no vrtical recovery... yeah just throwin that out there lol

 

[highfive]

Feld0, I recommend you go to your respective character sub forum in order to see who can help you. It's an easy way to get integrated in to the community.

 

[Infinite Emerald]

I love YOSHI! I used to play as him, but don't know if I qualify to mentor for him. He is a unique character. I am amazing at recovering with him though! Oh and abuse the second jump super armour frames, thats always fun!

Ughh...

Yoshi is so annoying to play against. Most of his stuff is easy to get around but having just to play against him irks me.

 

[Infinite Emerald]

I know the feeling, I hate playing against an average or better Game&Watch. I just don't like him, he is too annoying

 

[Zair Hidamaru]

Finally... somebody feels my pain.

Spoiler

Longest hitlags and bigge... I mean 2nd biggest hitbox ever.

 

[Mr. Johan]

I hate fighting GW online. So much.

Offline with him is fun though.

 

[Infinite Emerald]

And I just hate his meta-game. The way they play is just annoying. Oh and the worst thing is when they Bucket you.

 

[Feld0]

Heh; G&W used to be my main before I decided to switch to Yoshi. About him...thanks for the tips, Skinny and Infinite Emerald! I'll take your advice and seek a tutor over in the Yoshi forum (which seems to be almost dead, might I add.). Thanks guys! Perhaps you'll see me in your tournaments someday!

 

[highfive]

Don't worry. Some of the boards go in to hibernation but never die.

The Puff boards on the other hand...

 

[Infinite Emerald]

lol, when I first joined about a year ago I was maining Ike. Those boards were seriously dead.

 

[highfive]

I mained MK at the beginning but changed around 6 months in to Wolf.

 

[KrazyGlue]

I'm really not trying to be pushy, but I'm starting to wonder how long this will take. The revamping of this has already been delayed once, and the mentors were supposed to have been selected several days ago. And the OP hasn't changed either.

Again, I don't mean to rush. It's better to spend time making this whole process smooth than to rush it and set up a shoddy and unprofessional system. However, it would be nice to provide us with a deadline that will be committed to.
