OOC Let's Chat!

Also thanks, I might consider a mentor if I run into more trouble along the way but I’d like to see what I can do

Same! After a whole week of drafting and redrafting Emily's ency (after learning from the nit-picks when I first got validated to the site) I only had to go back and fix my stats - they were too low before I got approved

I got the stat totals right, but I didn't know a lot about sports or what each stat was used for back then. Hence the four stamina that Cass used to have

A good point though is to think through your stats before you index. If you want to join a sport (Quidditch, Broom Racing or Dueling) certain stat builds are better than others

It all sounds complicated, but it you take a look at a few examples, it's all really not too bad You'd be surprised how quick you'll pick it up

The good thing is we now have the mentorship program because it wasn't always here

Oh absolutely!

Though I didn't have a Mentor (I probably said this already, sorry!)

I did it all myself and I'm shocked at how well it went

Not a problem! Used to be a mentor myself, I can say that if you feel you need the help, do ask!

I most definitely didn't do that the first time around with Noah, when I deactivated to create Cody, I had duelling in mind same for Clark.

Le sob take it from me this is something you should definitely do. Ask us if want to know what stats are most useful for each sport!

I did have a mentor and fun fact I still have one lol

Just out of curiosity...

Do you have to have discord to be a Mentor? Because I don't really use it... (I'm not a social media person so things like Instagram, Discord etc I rarely use if ever)

ugh omg the discord i need to join it sometime! i totally forgot hio had one ;o

Well. I originally planned on my oc being an Alchemist but that doesn’t seem to be a feature so I decided to just incorporate that into his backstory and overarching goals. Might make him a duelist

Er, its *preferred* because you're notified when someone is approved for the mentorship program there. Cannot give a concrete answer if there were changes since I stepped down and left.
