This list is getting really long, if I don't go to jail on Friday I'm gonna start pming everyone on it to see if they are still interested/active and try to clean it up some.

Many thanks,

Natewolfman · Post by **Natewolfman** » Mon Jan 28, 2008 11:12 pm

is it possible to be both? haha im on the mentee list, nothing ever came of it though, i remember PMing 1 or 2 on the mentor list but never got a reply... anyways if you like i can help as a mentor for 1v1 games and especially in team games, but i would like some help myself (as stated before) in maps such as Age of Magic and Age of Might, i really suck at them and cant seem to get the hang of winning lol

It certainly is possible to be added on both lists, you can be an excellent player at 1v1's or dubs but be weak at a certain mode, like no cards or escalating.

The next time I update I'll be sure to add the last few, will do that probably tomorrow or the next day.

kalishnikov · Post by **kalishnikov** » Wed Jan 30, 2008 12:20 pm

I started pm'ing mentors to ensure they are still active and interested but haven't got very far due to work being somewhat busy the last few days.

I'll be sure to note the one's I've gotten responses from as I receive them.

Your 666th post, confirming my suspicions, old arch nemesis....

Your snicker was for.....? I ask because I'm trying my best to not royally murder this thread so I'd appreciate (useful) feedback if I put something down wrong.

kalishnikov · Post by **kalishnikov** » Sat Feb 02, 2008 12:55 pm

And I'll update when a few more sign up, no offense but I'm not going to update to add just 2 people.

soundout9 · Post by **soundout9** » Sat Feb 02, 2008 12:55 pm

I'm still here but i fell in rank cause i was gone for 2 weeks with 50 active games

rebuilding time

Top Dog · Post by **Top Dog** » Thu Feb 07, 2008 12:39 am

I'm with natewolfman here, I am on the list to give help, but I guess (now that I've been around for a bit) I could always need help myself! So I'll still help those private and down (I'm usually a High score private 1st class or a low score corporal) but I'll get some help as well!

firstholliday · Post by **firstholliday** » Thu Feb 07, 2008 10:20 am

i wanted to help wicked but she would not team with me

waiwai933 · Post by **waiwai933** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 9:19 pm

I'd like to help mentor, but I can't really give myself a number. I'm very knowledgeable in the actual game of RISK, and I know a lot about the website, but I don't win that many games. My strategies usually don't work out unless I'm playing the exact copy of the real board game, because I'm used to it.

-ShadySoul- · Post by **-ShadySoul-** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 1:26 am

Hey, I would like to be a mentor.
I would rate myself as a 3. I have played many games with officers. Can teach you about both freestyle and seq, speed and not.

I'd recommend that you pm wachica about the Society of Cooks. He's a great teacher and you will learn many helpful things. He specializes in helping out the lower-ranked and getting them the basics they need to improve their game overall.

I removed a few players who didn't reply to my pm's so hopefully the list will be a bit more active.

Perspective Mentees: start at the bottom of the mentor list and work up when pm'ing people that meet your criteria for a mentor. The bottom are the most recent additions, I know this is a crappy fix but it's the best I've got...

poo-maker · Post by **poo-maker** » Sun Feb 17, 2008 1:01 pm

What the heck, I'll give this mentor thing a go.

I am a lvl 4.

I am happy to mentor anyone in whichever settings they wish me to mentor them in. My best are 6 player seq esc, speed freestyle and 1v1's. I don't recommend asking for team game tips (I can teach the basics but there are much better mentors available for this) and i don't play any of the weird maps.

I only want to mentor 1 person atm, and i would prefer it if that person was under 1400.
