BUMP! We all need this. We have to keep teaching people the TG way. All you newly christened people, hot off the TGU books now need to put into action your new skills by teaching people what TG is all about. That it isn't learning and then keeping all your new uber skills to yourself and here in TG. The primer says this:

"[We are to] Create an environment where there was mutual respect for your fellow gamers and where all members would be working together to advance the enjoyment of their hobby."

That means you have the responsibility to help create an environment where members and future members can learn from us and help make this hobby just that much better.

Please remember to only have perhaps 2 TG people in your Learn TG squad. You and a squad member to set an example. Be firm but gentle and understanding. Above all, be fun, have fun, and LEARN TG!!!

I always get nervous when I lead a Learn TG squad. I guess it's partly to do with remembering all of the important details of TG Battlefield, and conveying them in an interesting and informative format. Could someone explain the essential difference between a normal squad and a learn TG one, other than the 2-3 TGers rule?

I'm guessing maybe less leet-speak TG talk, like "hold spawn", and more translated things like "Do not spawn in", or "I want you all to come in as assault with defibulators" instead of "come in as medics". Stuff like that?

While it's important to pass along certain information, there's no
need to be nervous about running a Learn TG squad (assuming of
course that you are up to speed on TG rules and regulations).

There are no direct LTG squad rules that I'm aware of. Suggest just having fun
and teaching people how to be part of an effective squad.

Here are some of the things I do in my Learn squads:

* "Thank you for joining the Learn TG Squad. If you have questions at any time please ask."
* Mic check.
* "I'm going to ask you to hold spawn and spawn on squad leader only. That means deselect your spawnpoint and select the green dot. Spawn in when I ask you to. "
(PS don't get mad when they mess up and spawn in early. )
* Practice calling squad members out by name frequently. They may not understand that you're talking to them otherwise.
* Also, take the time to explain your tactics to your squad i.e. "It's important that we hold this flag so that we don't bleed tickets."
* Remind them to check out TacticalGamer.com when it's slow.
* Adjust squad leading to squad members' experience. If they're
totally green, keep it simple and explain a lot. If they know what
they're doing, step it up and challenge them.
* Thank them for following orders and joining the learn TG squad.

**Greyed** · 06-14-2009, 08:46 AM

I was in a LearnTG squad a few days ago with Silver. \o/

Then the server filled up and I was kicked off. -.-

Had fun throwing myself at the meatgrinder that is Command on Cerbere Landing the first round. Not a lot of kills but did earn my third Emergency Rescue Pin.
