Looking for a Hex teacher

Public forum discussion.

I have got a 1750 rating in hex, and I think from now on I won't get a lot better just by playing on a turn-based server. And hexwiki is not available for the time being. Would someone like to play a teaching game? (Inspired by this thread )

You can give a try to www.iggamecenter.com too, sometimes there are experienced players, and i think that real time playing is a more serious thing... :)

What makes you think you will not get better by playing here? I know lots of people who reached 2000+ ratings in there games never playing it anywhere other than here.

This is a good idea. I'm willing to both teach and be taught Hex, or just discuss strategy with someone.

I'm currently rated about 2050, but I hope to pass the 2100 mark soon. I've never played on iggamecenter.com, but I'll go check it out =)

I just thought I wouldn't get (a lot) better because the games progress slower than on real time servers, so that I get less experience. But if I am wrong, that's ok too! I just tried iggamecenter.com, it's less active than i thought (but i see shalev played 2 games).

urmaul, we could play some unrated games here on littlegolem and involve our moves' purpose description by sending messages, I guess this maybe is what you look for, isn't it? :)

Hi! I'm new to Hex and I also want to be taught :)
I've tried iggamecenter, but I've seen there not much people. May be I'm looking for players in incorrect time?

JKB, it depends on periods... sometimes we're busy with other things than hex :P

Anyway you're more likely to find hex players there during the evening or the night in european time.
