Click his name in one of his posts then "send private message" or something like that should appear in a drop-down menu where you clicked.

I disagree with you here man. I rekon being given a build order is one thing, but actually being taught why the food timing on a building (i.e. 15 nexus) is important / changes gameplay makes a huge difference for these newer players. You dont get that by just reading a build order list on TL.

Also, I rekon I will be stuck in masters until my micro/macro, and even to some degree scouting reaction improves. Imagine the bounds of improvement bronze/silver players would make if they even contemplated reacting to what they see (Im just guessing they dont..). Also, little tips in relation to micro and macro helped me right up until diamond - i.e. injecting all hatches at the same time, so that when you see one pop, you know they all need to be re-injected.

Exactly. I mean seriously, these guys are so fresh to the game that ANY help is good help. I wish I had it when I started.

(Notably however, I think the guys asking about his skill level actually had the context of why OP was playing in BSG when he said he was Diamond. Was just an off-topic question i think, nothing to do with coaching)

Lol, im guessing youre in Australia and with Optus? I think one of the TA guys said their server runs through the US or some shit, so latency is better there.
Or i remember incorrectly and am just talking shit :P

Tonki · Mon, 26th-Sep-2011, 4:31 AM

Hi I for one would like free coaching. Mainly because it's free. So sign me up. I'm a high silver player who believes i'm just a step off of gold. My build orders seem fine. I do believe i need work in technique (micro) and late game reactions. My name/code is Tonki.408.

Hope you still have some spots.

No I'm with internode and they have a dedicated link to the US so pinging the us is faster then pinging singapore .......

Thats odd because internode actually goes via Hongkong last I checked to get the US. I remember distintly when the hongkong servers went down a day with no internet into the US well was really only 2 hours but man it was not nice. Having said that that was a year or more ago and internode is always upgrading their network. Mind you sometimes my ping is down around 230 for US servers and other times its up to 500+ I guess its all traffic based.

I don't play very regularly if that's alright with you.

Apostrophe · Tue, 27th-Sep-2011, 12:44 AM

I think it's great that you are actually giving newbies like myself a chance to be coached for free so, why not?! It'll be awesome if I can actually pick up some tips from you.

I do have Skype but I'm using my laptop's mic, so I might not actually sound awesome or something, but yeah, coaching sounds awesome!

Synizta · Tue, 27th-Sep-2011, 3:40 PM

Also, just comfirmed a few hours ago, that i will have pretty much every day avliable aslong as i don't have any BSGCL commitments on that day, or the occasional day where i be social, so i have plenty of time now to be able to put into this.

**syfChadMann** · Tue, 27th-Sep-2011, 5:55 PM

Such a good idea to be helping out the community.. and yeah the biggest way to learn this game is to have some practice partners and people to help you look at your game and isolate you faults and where you can improve...

I, personally love teaching new players and have coached a few mates and my brother to help them on their way to gold and beyond.. and once they are out of bronze/silver they make great practice partners along the way to us all getting into GM....

Nevertheless, if there is any demand for it i'm more than willing to help other players learn and develop.. Personally I'm only a Gold level Protoss player, which I can to some degree atribute that to not having any time to ladder with Uni commitments.. I do however feel I have a higher level of skill.. with notable attributes to taking a game off NA Grand Master player and pro-gamer RGN.Future, in the NASL Season 2 qualifiers (yeah I entered it - was a bit of fun...) and a few close games against Master league players in ESL's...

Nevertheless - I'll also be available for free coaching (particularly as my Uni semester comes to an end for 5 months at the end of this week!!!) For any Protoss players and Zerg players (yes Also play alot of Zerg and have considered the switch from time to time.. but I played Protoss in BW so i'll stick at it..)
If your interested, PM me here or Add me on B.Net ChadMann.754 and we can sort out Skype sessions for coaching - otherwise, if your receiving coaching, feel free to add me to practice and trial strats and builds..
