Conquer Club

Concise description:
Create a special subforum, subclan group within the Cook's forum that would allow lower ranked or just inexperienced players to play and, hopefully learn, the variety maps in CC


EDIT -- looks like something similar is already in the works, therefore I withdraw this suggestion.

I suggest a usergroup for this suggestion

it this not the SoC?

As I noted in my suggestion SOC os geared specifically to classic type maps. The skills translate to most of the standard "area bonus" type maps, but not necessarily to Oasis, AOR, Fuedal, etc.

then join up with the SoC.
the only reason they start with the classic map is because teaching the lot is considered too much. now if they had 500 teachers.. that be another apple

I GRADUATED from SOC. It applies ONLY to the standard maps, which I don't like to play much.

And, yes, i understand fully why they start with classic. I have been around longer than SOC. It helps, but, it only meets some needs. Therefore, I am suggesting an expansion, as described above. This would not take away from the regular SOC, just offer a more formalized route for learning the wide diversity of maps available in CC.

As stated before, start a UserGroup with this focus, and if it grows large enough, it could become an integral part of the website.

The society of cooks has a team teaching section that teaches on all maps and settings. It is being revamped now, but should be up and running soon. This will help students gain familiarity with many maps and settings in a controlled environment. Point losses will be smaller because it is team games. Hopefully we can roll out the new team teaching system soon.

Thanks, I think the SOC is a great training program for classic. (and yes, it is best to have first focused on classic).

The biggest limitation to diverse maps is the number of people available. There is never going to be a full SOC-style training program for all maps. It is impossible, but I think we could have a shortened version to at least deal with some of the major "types". That, and of course if we could only get people to actually read but if you figure that one out, PLEASE TELL ME! I need it for my son

anyway, sounds like this is already in the works, so I withdraw my suggestion.

The team teaching section is only limited by the experience of the teachers. There is no apriori limitation on maps or settings.

Good enough for me. Archived. (If you want this moved out in the future, shoot me a PM and I'll fix it for you)
