This game is the fifth in the series of "TeachMe" games, a series of standard partial press games where each power is played by a relative newbie, each accompanied by an experienced coach that sees all the press that is being sent to and from that newbie, with the coach being only allowed to communicate with their own power. The intent is to provide a learning experience for all concerned (often the best way to learn something is to teach it, and for the newbies, this is a golden chance to learn from a previously experienced player), and to have a vast volume of archived press that will be available after the game completes for the rest of the world to read and learn from as well. Deadlines are slightly longer than the usual, to allow for time for coaches and players to communicate with each other before moves and press go out. Players and coaches are encouraged to use SET ABSENCE ahead of time to request deadline extensions - send 'GET tutorial.absence' to the judge to find out how.
