Mentor/Mentee Info & Sign Up Thread

about 8 years

The Basic Premise:

This program is designed to help mafia players of all experience levels (not just for new players) improve their knowledge and skill-set through the one-to-one guidance of mentors. Mentors are chosen as players who have a deeper understanding of the game and are willing to share that with others. As a mentee, you will work with a mentor or mentors at your desired pace and times.

How this will work:

To be assigned a mentor, please comment below. If you are below the required point threshold to post on the forums, please message:

Nathan: https://epicmafia.com/user/563074#/

There are two programs:

Basic: introduces players to mafia through Classic Mafia, a standard and simple mafia setup. Here, you will be introduced to the basic mechanics and in-game terminology. Any further questions you may have pertaining to the website, game, or tactics will also be answered.

Advanced: based on mentor oversight in ranked and unranked games. The site administrator implemented a function that allows a mentor to see his or her mentee's role without directly participating in the game. They will be able to share their thoughts and give guidance to their mentees. Mentees may also opt to play competitive games with their mentors and debrief when it's over.

Mentors cannot under any circumstance treat you any differently than any other player in a ranked game.

Additional Notes: I think it's optimal to stay as a null read both when I'm town and mafia, but this ends up getting me lynched regardless if i'm town or mafia.

What days and times are you available to mentor, on a regular basis? 9AM-12PM my time Monday - Friday. (as long as nothing crops up)
What level mentees would you like to teach? Basic(I prefer to mentor them to avoid new people playing Rank games when they dont know how)
Why do you want to be a mentor? Its annoying when new people who dont know how to play rank games join rank games
What qualifies you to be a mentor? over 1k ranked games played?
What would you like to get out of the mentoring program and what would you like to give to it? more new players that are fun to play with as opposed to those that dont know the rules. im willing to give my free time and effort. im nice to new people in unranked games but nasty if they join ranked games without knowing how to play.
