Taking on students

[Wolf Snare]

Alright, so I know at least a few of you logged into turbo this round and thought "oh crud". Some of you may have even spit, cussed, and thrown tantrums due to the changes; in one colourful instance one of our members (who will respectfully remain anonymous) headbutted her keyboard in half.

FEAR NOT!

For those of you who have not yet ragequit, I can help.
I'll let you in on a little secret: It's not. that. hard!

Though little has actually been revealed to the public about concrete strategies, there is hope! I'm here to help you understand some of the finer details and assist you in ironing out the hiccups in your strategy. Don't have a clue what you're doing?? I can help you develop a strategy. All I ask is you do not get discouraged. When initially stumbling upon the new code it can seem intimidating, but it's fairly simple to grasp with an open mind. For those of you who did not participate in BETA on the test server, you may feel even more lost, but I promise you it's not as hard as you think it is.

Now, before you all start throwing your rotten fruit at me and scream "YOU SUCK, SNARECAKES!" bare in mind, I'm not claiming to be some master strategist who's already got the game worked out to a T. I have a basic understanding of the new game dynamics, and a strategy that I feel could assist some of the less ambitious players.

It's nothing to be ashamed of-- most of us are programmed to hate changes. It's frustrating, especially when you can't seem to get anywhere. However instead of quitting, all I ask is for you to give it a shot. If you approach me, we'll figure it out together!

I will be teaching via MSN messenger. I know, it's outdated, and many of you may be opposed to this, but I'm sorry folks, that's all I can do.

Please note that I will be going to Ottawa on Thursday until (possibly) Tuesday to move some of my stuff around. I will be virtually inaccessible while there, so don't think I'm ignoring you! ;)

EDIT: Volkov has also volunteered to be of some assistance. He is wise beyond his years, listen to him people!

I may join you if you tell me who head butted her keyboard in half.

The fact that the landfarm is ranked #8 depresses me...

[Peace Alliance]

haha, we're all struggling to make NW

[Wolf Snare]

sticker, that's the definition of passive.
Offer stands, I'll teach you how to rise above the land farm!

[Gen. Volkov]

I can also help, if anyone is interested. I've worked out a pretty decent strategy.

[Rakefur]

Both of you can add me on MSN, rakefurlongface@hotmail.com

Feel free to PM me if any of you guys need my MSN for help. My account on the Turbo is being swapped to an Admin role so I can see your stuff whenever it gets changed so that I can help as opposed to playing, as I've run about 50,000 more turns than anyone but Shadow, and after the first run I don't think it's fair that I keep playing while everyone else struggles. (Makes it easier to help if I can just see what you're doin')

E: Just so MSN people are aware that already have me, or will be PMing me for my address, if I'm online but flagged as anything other than "online", I'm not at the computer, even if I'm on the forums, I'm likely phone posting.
