Reffing Experience (if any): Quite a few I guess? I didn't pass 101 for nothing~
Why do you want to be tutored: To self-ref. That, and why not?
Any extra comments about yourself: Avoid getting drunk with me at all costs. The next morning you could end up naked in Switzerland covered with tattoos of Obama's grandmother. Other than that, Lucy won't bite. Contrary to popular belief

Oh and before I forget: I removed the extra MC/CC for the Mentor on the Starting ASB Battles. I suppose the 5UC is payment enough for that.

This is effective immediately.

So:

Depending on the demand, White-listed Refs may be called to act as tutors (even if ad hoc) if the demand is big enough (constant and baseless refusal may lead to their licenses being revoked <_<).
our list of white-listed people and what they picked from the ref program (101 or 202) thus far is:

Avnomke: None
TSRD: YAS (5/24)
Rainman Legends: geodude6 (9/1)
Dogfish44: acidphoenix (6/9), C$FP (9/5), Lucy (12/18)
tavok: None
ZhengTann: adiass (12/17)
Birkal: WW (5/24), Gale (6/9), Glacier (22/10), jayelt433 (10/27), Ooraloo (1/6)
akela: None
Gale Wing Rocks: Leethoof (9/29), Zarator (10/11), jayelt433 (10/20), acidphoenix (11/15), Fort (11/15), Mamoswindle (12/18)
S0L1D G0LD: None
Its_A_Random: None
Elevator Music: None
zarator: None


I will start simple here: Upon white-listing you get 6 months of use. And those 6 months are renewed everytime you pick someone (regardless of when the battle is actually finished). If you are subbed, that mentoring you picked will be ignored, which means that if the previous mentoring you picked were more than 6 months ago (ignored the one you were subbed at), then you will be suspended. Stay suspended for more than a month (counting from the post the suspension is declared) and your privilegies will be revoked entirely and you will need to redo the course.

And yes: refs and non-refs will receive the exact same treatment. This is a privilege. It is illogical that I take it down easily for the people who commited more.

So we are as follows:
Avnomke: Suspended
TSRD : Suspended
Rainman Legends: good until March 1st
Dogfish44 : good until June 18th
tavok : Suspended
ZhengTann : Good until June 17th
Birkal : Good until July 6th
akela : Suspended
Gale Wing Srock : Good until June 18th
S0L1D G0LD : Good until January 18th
Its_A_Random : Good until January 24th
Elevator Music : Good until January 24th
zarator : Good until May 1st


If you are listed as suspended, you are not allowed to self-ref until you pick something from the ref queue.

If I made any mistake let me know.

BTW, I reserve the right to short the time from 6 to less months if the queue demands so (although I don't intend to anytime soon if things go my way). Also I reserve the right to cut down people without needing to suspend in case of too much mistakes made or too much johnness on self-refs. On that note G0LD, you are walking on thin ice since the DQ vs Lucy (or FMD can't remember who it was). Just FYI.

Uh, if you ever wanted back in, just PM me or VM me, okay? If I don't get back to you then in 48 hours, escalate up to Frosty or Birkal (yes, I am a bureaucrat).

I forgot to announce it before so:

Avnomke: Suspended
TSRD : Suspended
Rainman Legends: good until March 1st
Dogfish44 : good until July 13th
tavok : Suspended
ZhengTann : Good until June 17th

S0L1D G0LD : Suspended
Its_A_Random : Good until July 8th
Elevator Music : Good until January 24th

jayelt413: Good until July 19th
