This program is designed to help mafia players of all experience levels improve their knowledge and skill-set through the guidance of mentors. Mentors are chosen by moderators 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. There is a mentor lobby where the mentors will host competitive games for mentees.
Mentors/Mentees: How to sign up
If you are interested in joining the program as a mentor or mentee, please post in this thread. If you are below the required point threshold to post on the forums, please message one of the moderators - below
The basic program 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.
The advanced program is 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.
Basic Level Mentoring
For players who would like to learn more about the basic mechanics, roles, setups, terminology, etc.
Intermediate Level Mentoring

Advanced Level Mentoring

What qualifies you to be a mentor? A lot of games, seen a few things.
Why do you want to be a mentor? I'd just like to build up the basic skills of the comp lobby players, sometimes the failure of comprehension out of players with ~100 games in staggering. And when you get killed n1/n2 and can't do anything but sit and watch the town go down in flames, it's frustrating.
Which level of mentees would you like to teach? Beginners.
What would you like to get out of the mentoring program & what would you like to give to it? I'd like to get out of it a better informed comp lobby player base, and I have some knowledge and tips to give that could be useful.
What days and times are you available to mentor, on a regular basis? All day on weekends, evenings M-F
Timezone: Mountain standard time, -7. (Billings, MT)
Main Username: Quiet/CocaCola (Would want to mentor on this account) What qualifies you to be a mentor? Extensive experience on this site. Why do you want to be a mentor?

Advanced What would you like to get out of the mentoring program & what would you like to give to it? I would like to give out exactly what I get in. I like teaching people, and mentoring I think is the way to go in my free time around this site. What days and times are you available to mentor, on a regular basis? I'm usually free just about every evening. I usually find sometime in the late hours after studying to be on the site. Timezone: CT/EST
