I suspected there was an experience requirement, but I didn't see it so I thought, no harm in asking.

I don't have you on the roster. Some guide games are posted in Global chat, are you talking about those?

Re: Callout -- New Guide Program Beginning Soon! Guides Need
Can I be removed from this?
Thanks

Done.

Just out of curiosity, do we have any numbers compiled to show whether or not this program is increasing the retention rate? I have been away from the site for a while and noticed that the percentage of turns completed hasn't changed much

I don't know the actual stats, but BW posted a bunch of stats in the Team forum a few years back.
The guide games did significantly increase the percentage of sign-ups who stick around to play a game. It went from something like 4% to something like 7%. I know, 7% is still pathetic, but it's almost double what it was before. That's a huge jump. I know it seems like a thankless task, when the vast majority don't stay, but you're here for the tiny few that do.

I appreciate your interest, but we need to get some miles on your tires before you can be a guide. Check back after a while.

Being pretty low with game load and playing multi player games more often now, it give time to help newbies if you are still looking for guides...cheers
