...competitively, of course. :3
In an effort to promote activity in a couple of sections, you may have noticed that the CBC was born! That's right, we're actively trying to get more people interested and available in PC's competitive battling community. So this is what I'm here to ask y'all for now:
Wolflare and myself and various other members have been working on a new tutoring program for CBC. If you've ever seen the past attempts at tutoring programs, you'd know they all were... well, they were only kind of successful, for various reasons. Timezone issues between tutors and students, trying to be strict with schedules, lack of knowing exactly what to teach even from our tutors...
Well, this time we're gonna fix all of that! You see, this time, tutoring is going to be a great big class, with the tutors instructing everyone in general! This way, we don't have to hold potential students up to any standard. In fact, if you just want to go to the tutoring session to see what it's like and halfway through decide it's something you're not going to be into, it'd be perfectly fine to leave right then and there. BUT we want to encourage anyone and everyone who has any kind of interest at all to give it a try! The only thing we'd like for any potential students to have is some general knowledge about Pokémon - stuff like typing charts (not exactly memorized but having most of it down would be awesome) and the names of most Pokémon, etc. We will be covering subjects that are common in battling such as EVs and IVs, however.
Now, the purpose of this blog! The actual thread about the tutoring will be posted on June 11th, and hopefully we'll begin to have some idea about the timeframe by then. This is what I wanna ask you in addition to that big question up there...
If you're interested, what would be the best timeframe for you to be able to get online? Weekends are preferable as more people will be available then - a specific time would be awesome as well. We just want to be able to host this at the best possible time, with the biggest amount of interested people online as we possibly can. The text log of the class will be posted eventually too, so if you miss the class you can come read up on what you missed out on. And all of the tutors will be available on PC as well so if you have a question you can ask them!
I'm really really excited for this show to get rolling, guys. 8D If you've been great enough to read up until here, it'd be even better if you can leave a comment on your opinion. And if you're interested, just for us to get a little demographic...
Thanks for your time! Please post a comment if you can - we need all the feedback we can get right now! (And if you know someone who might be interested, do mention this to them!)
(Edit: Classes will be conducted on the PC Pokémon Online server! You can get Pokémon Online by going to this link and downloading the client. When you're running the program, you can click on the Advanced Connection input and type in "home.brokenrevolution.com" to access PC's server! You can also scroll through the list of servers to find ours. Don't be afraid to join up and start a chat!) also thank yeww Aero for reminding me that I never mentioned it was going to be on PO ;-;

Have you ever been interested in battling competitively? If so, would you be interested in learning how?

Example:
[noparse]What would be the best timeframe for you to be able to get online? Have you ever battled competitively before? (Not like a casual match with your friends - this means using things like EVs and breeding for Hidden Powers, or battling online with a simulator like Pokémon Online) If you have, can you categorize what you struggle most with? (things like predicting, team building, dealing with opposing threats, etc.) If not, that's alright too.. this question is just so we can better identify what we need to focus on.[/noparse] |
