Bump because attendance has been falling off lately
so some people evidently need reminding.

Hi Guys,
I was testing my new pc last night and popped-in to STW/MI/WE foyer, noticed 12 peeps in there, all in games Remember between 7-9 gmt is the meeting point, once there stay as long as peeps willing to play. These times are applicable though-out the week days also. Kansuke. |

Lots of New STW WE MP Players Showing Up | #11 | ||
|
Hi everyone. I am new to the MP scene, and I've
been hanging out in the foyer all week. I've had some fun
games with both new players and experienced
ones.
I've been following the example of a gentleman who goes by the name of Mimesaka Akechi on-line. He posts here regularly but under a different monicker. I won't reveal it just incase he'd like to remain anonymous. Those who know Mime' on-line will know who I'm talking about. He is helpful, never critical, and very patient. And VERY good. Today, emulating this behavior (except the very good part), I played almost all day long, with quite a few who had never played before. The games were ... um ... interesting, but the point is WE HAD MUCH FUN! I informed everyone about SOS, coached them about the common rules, did my best to reign the wild ones in, and warned them of the skill levels they will encounter on Sundays if they come. I also reminded them that veterans have a low tolerance for BS, and that if they wanted to play some good players, they'd have to learn how to play within the accepted guidelines. Most if not all were excited and willing to cooperate, and learn. One of them was only 11 years old. He was VERY enthusiastic, though quite impatient and a bit overly talkative. But I looked at it as a test of patience. By the end of the sessions, after losing badly to my fairly well organized armies (even when breaking the 4 max rule over and over again), he was asking me very politely to coach him in the future. I promised him that I would, if he would work on his patience, and listening skills. It was a kick, and my karma glows tonight. To veterans who still play: I've felt ignored by some of you in the foyer. I'm not a sensitive one, so it's no big deal to me, but if you want to attract more players, it might help to follow Mime's example. Even if it means tolerating a lot of childish behavior at first, and spending a little time tutoring instead of playing. These folks represent a pool of potential players, and some were quite good for first-timers. The more the merrier as they say, and you can always set up private games with passwords when you feel like getting down to it. You have so much to offer those new to the MP side of the game. I realize that you don't want to share your secrets, but the basics and intermediate things would help the new folks get up to speed and give you a run for your koku someday. I hope I don't sound patronizing--it is not my intent. I just want to see STW WE MP revive, so we can have some great games together. (*zarei*) [bow from seiza, or kneeling position] Toga |

Toga m8, don't feel ignored. some people won't
respond if you have a question because if more people
answer, new people can get confused easily. Sometimes
they just don't answer because they don't know the answer
or have to remain silent because of clanrules or their
own rules.
You are right that they are the future of Shogun, and personally i think it is our duty (for all of us) to help them as much as we can to learn them the basics. Mime is indeed a good person. Always friendly and he has come a long way in a short time. I have seen him grow into a brilliant player in a very short time. It is a good thing that many more come to shogun. It keeps the mind sharp if you keep facing new opponents. And i look forward to meet all of them. *bows* |

Thank you Toga and Iguana for your very kind
words...
I believe I know part of the reason many veterans don't always go out of their way to help new players. I've been playing for 3 months now. In that time I must have seen around 40 new players come online. NONE of them have become regular players. Only FOUR of them played for more than a week. TWO of these played for a week and then stopped coming. The other Two played for maybe a month and a half and then dissapeared. I agree that this is a problem, but I'm not sure what to do about it. Speaking for myself, coming online was so much fun for me that I never considered stopping. On the other hand I never got the feeling that I was not wanted...I played a lot with yogi and the aggonies, picking up scraps of advice here and there and learning from my own mistakes. I played for the first week or so without ever bringing guns As for yesterday in particular, we had set up a 2v2 when there was just us 4 in the foyer, one person dropped midgame so we wanted to do a rematch. |

Thanks for the thought but I don't feel the need to remain anonymous. I'd put it in my sig like at the org but this forum doesn't have a sig feature |
