Yep, that tasted purple!
POST HERE IF YOU'RE DONE TUTORING/GETTING TUTORED!
Update: Tutoring will always take 2 battles or more (if necessary).
News: For clarification, you don't have to go through this program to become a ref.
Introduction
With the increase of population in CAP ASB, the necessity for more referees has grown. There has certainly been a couple of matches in the Battle Tower that have not received a referee, and there are even referees who accept a match, but cannot finish it due to whatever reason. Why is that? Is it because the person who would like to referee is too afraid to take it on? Is it the inexperience or fear of being judged on your writing and style? Whatever it is, surely that person should fear no more as he or she joins the Referee Tutoring Program!
Process
A Tutor Ref will take on an Apprentice Ref (or slightly more if you can handle it) that I will assign and watch over the Apprentice Ref as he or she refs a battle at the Battle Tower. The Apprentice Ref will PM the Tutor Ref his or her update of the match before each round begins. The Tutor Ref will look over for glaring errors or mistakes (or even add some flavor!) and send a PM right back at the Apprentice Ref, who will correct them if necessary and then post the update. This will repeat until the match is over.
An Apprentice Ref should make PMs to their tutor ref in the following format:
Player A vs. Player B (Original Post) for the initial post.
ex: Deck Knight vs. Flora (Original Post)
Once the OP is looked over, the match title should be posted:
Player A vs. Player B. (AR: <Assistant Ref>, TR: <Tutor Ref>)
ex. Deck Knight vs. Flora (AR: 1337H0FFA, TR: Its_A_Random)
The same process occurs for each round, using the following format for the PM:
Player A vs. Player B (Round 1) for the round posting.
ex: Deck Knight vs. Flora (Round 1)
The round will be looked at and audited for calculations, effects, etc. and PMed back to the Apprentice Ref. The Tutor Ref will also be looking at things like consistency in effects over rounds, any creative elements that could be added/subtracted, and generally anything else that might be important.
If you didn't get all of that...
- I'll partner a Tutor Ref and Apprentice Ref together
- Apprentice Ref picks a battle to ref
- Before each round, the Apprentice Ref PMs Tutor ref his version of the update
- Tutor Ref finds errors and/or nitpicks the update and PMs the Apprentice Ref back
- Apprentice Ref posts the update and repeat until the match is over
- Hopefully everything goes well :)
IF the Apprentice Ref fails to complete the match for whatever reason, it is the duty of the Tutor Ref to finish it up.
Reffing Levels
Head/Tutor Refs: The job of a Head or Tutor Ref is to help and guide Apprentice Refs through an apprenticeship program. There will be additional compensation for Tutor Refs as a function of helping Apprentice Refs.

Registered Ref: This is any ref that has passed or "passed" the apprenticeship program. Continuous active and high quality reffings will allow a Registered Ref to apply to become a Tutor Ref. The exact process by which this will be done will be decided at a later date (but being active in reffing is a good idea!).

Why do you want to be tutored:
Any extra comments about yourself:
For tutors, you will all be equally assigned one until the last available ref has someone to tutor. If someone finishes and there's some backlog going on, that someone may take on one of the backlog.
I've also been thinking of tutees who wanted to be tutored again. I'll allow it to happen if necessary, but you will receive a different tutor than your old one. It's good to get help and opinions from multiple people, right?
