Tutor list

I think it might be useful to noobies to have an available list of players who would be happy to give help and advice to their opponent during games on Goko. It would make it easier for people to ask for advice if they know their opponent is someone who's willing to give it. It's also a more fun way to learn & get better than reporting your game in the "help" subforum here.

I'll be on the list as someone who's happy to give advice during a game, but I'm not a particularly good player myself.

I am always willing to discuss a game if asked; I have learned not to offer advice unless prompted, though, so the other person has to make the first move there.

I play with no player restriction, so anyone new who sees one of my games is welcome to play and discuss if they wish.

I am willing to offer advice. I do have my thingy set to L20+, so if a lower-ranked opponent wishes to play against me, feel free to PM me.

I am always willing to talk about the game and strategy and life and whatever.  I do put a L25+ restriction, so lower ranked players would have to PM me if they want to play, and I would be totally willing to set up a time to play.

Man. I had four strips of bacon yesterday. Was one automatically undercooked, one automatically overcooked? No, let's put a stop to that right here, all four strips were excellent.

Same for me, but scheduling is harder for me as of lately(as my league section found out). You'd have to catch me in the actual lobby as I don't play on a regular basis.

I might abuse this a bit and hunt you guys down and get tutoring from everyone!

Even though a couple of you have already helped me I might try and track you down again :). Its just so much fun learning about this game!

For anyone else, such a statement would be a scum tell.  For Hydrad, it's simply a tell that you're reading something from Hydrad.

Ummm, is this joking/in good fun? Can't quite tell, perhaps I'm on the outside of an inside joke here. I'm pretty sure just about any of us could provide at least some helpful advice to noobs.

Andrew and I play games together often enough. Generally he loses, but just so that he doesn't feel too bad, we joke that he is better than me.

I agree. These "jokes" should not keep creeping up in every thread both of you happen to read. Keep it in the joke thread where the jokes can be appropriately pawned.

I agree. All humour should be designated as such so no one gets confused. In fact, please relegate anything non-serious to a single thread and put it in [joke][/joke] tags.

Humor is great, but the op was asking for a list of people to play against, so the actual content is being lost between jokes.  Insert witty observation here.

It's not about sorting the jokes form non-jokes. I think the point is that Andrew and I invade threads with our great sense of humour, and sometimes we should just let the thread be actually what it's about.

I disagree. Dominion is about having fun. These forums are about having fun. Let's have some fun, at Kingzog3's expense.

I think we need to create a Tutor list [Serious] thread.
