Sod the beer, I want one of those Tequila Mockingbirds! :amazed:

I could do with one of those! I had such a crap day at work! :hugesmile:

[Marcus.]

Sod the beer, I want one of those Tequila Mockingbirds! :amazed:

go straight for the strong stuff

[Marcus.]

I could do with one of those! I had such a crap day at work! :hugesmile:

well why not

[Kate!]

Right....let's get down to business.

Nominations are in!

Team Prospect

Apple202 - you received no nominations
Jamie585 - you received 3 nominations
Munchkins - you received no nominations
Roy Mars III - you receivedno nominations
Kazanne - you received 3 nominations
DrunkerThanMoses - you received2 nominations

Roy was not here to make his noms, and Kazanne decided she would abstain from voting to be fair - she had poorly children, so has been unable to participate. Roy will be able to give his noms later, for the records and statistics, but they won't count, as I am announcing now.

Therefore Kazanne (with 4 votes overall) and Jamie585 :shocked: will face the Boardroom shortly.

Team Pioneer

Vanessa - you received no nominations
Locke - you received4 nominations
MTVN - you received1 nomination
Salman - you received2 nominations
Lee - you received5 nominations
ukturtle - you receivedno nominations

Therefore Lee (5 noms) and Locke (4 noms) will face the Boardroom shortly.

[Jamie585]

I knew it!! :(

Suprised at who voted for me too.

[Marcus.]

I knew it!! :(

[Benjamin]

Good luck Pioneers, was a difficult choice this time round.

Suprised at who voted for me too.

How do you know?? :suspect:

[Apple202]

Good luck Jamie and Kaz and Lee and Locke :(

[Kate!]

Right, as soon as I have the judges decisions, I'll invite Lord ShuGrr to make his announcement.

Good luck all four of you :)

[Jamie585]

How do you know?? :suspect:

Because 2 people didn't vote, and 3 are left over.. so they all voted didn't they? :p

[Marcus.]

Good luck Jamie and Kaz and Lee and Locke :(

yeah good luck guys

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Close, sorry Jamie, but you will be 100% fine I am sure of it. No offensive to Kazanne but she didn't do anything

[Jamie585]

[Marcus.]

(so if you have been tactical ... :eek:)

[MTVN]

Yes looks like it's the end of the road for you Lee

[Benjamin]

Lol, I actually thought it would be closer between you three (MTVN, Lee and Locke).

[Jamie585]

[Apple202]

Oh lmao :joker:

I thought you meant a quadruple :p

[Kate!]

Information.

When you have 4 people left in your team, 2 will be fired after that task (one from each as usual) and then the final 6 will merge.

Team Rooms will not be necessary from that point, you can all work together in the main thread (here) and only one person will be fired per task until the final.

[Benjamin]

Oh, interesting, so that will be in two tasks time. :amazed:

What will our merged name be?

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Cool, its like survivor

[Kate!]

Oh, interesting, so that will be in two tasks time. :amazed:

[Jamie585]

Going to be a late night task :laugh:

[Kate!]

Right. Everything has taken longer today,plus waiting on noms and judges votes. Way behind schedule. Mollie is going to announce the Firings and the new task shortly. Sorry for the tortuous wait.

:D

[Shaun]

I'm here now :hmph:

[Shaun]

Prospect:
kazanne - yet again you were AWOL from the team effort this time. In the easiest decision I've had to face so far, kazanne, you're fired.

Jamie585 - I honestly haven't the foggiest why you're in this position. I believe that you, Apple and DrunkerThanMoses were the strongest contributors for this task, although I understand that Roy and Munchkins weren't far behind, and have been consistent in the past. I've really got nothing to chastise you for this time around, other than your ideas to bring in a 'traitor' twist which was too similar to existing TiBB games. I don't hold it against you, though, and in the end you put in a good amount of writing and explaining of the game.

------------------------------
Pioneer: This is much more difficult to decide because I honestly think any of you other than Ben could have faced the firing line this time. Maybe not out of your own doing, but because he kind of left you without anything to do - but then he did finish it all quite last minute, and I'm disappointed with the team effort this time around.

Lee. - You posted the least often of everyone but have contributed well to tasks in the past. It's also not really that much of a criticism when "least of everyone" is one fewer than Locke :p I'm going to save you this time around because I believe you have more to offer in future tasks and have performed better throughout the series.

Locke. - You kept putting off any form of task effort for quite mundane things - football and the X Factor. You also expressed confusion at what was quite a simple task, really, since you're a former gamemaker yourself. You've kind of kept in the background throughout the game and for that reason, with regret, you're fired

[Jamie585]

Thanks shaun :)

[Locke.]

How dare you say football is mundane

[Kazanne]

Bye everyone

glad I made your job easy Shaun,

[Kate!]

Thank you lovely Lord ShuGrr. We won't ask what you've been up to in that boardroom. :evilgrin:

Ok now the amazing Miss Mollie will soon post the new task. I'm off for a lie down.

Nurse....the screens please ... :laugh:

[Marcus.]

Bye everyone

[Apple202]

Hard luck Kazanne and Locke :sad:

Grats to Jamie and Lee though! :) Final 10!

[Lee.]

How dare you say football is mundane

:laugh3:

Hard luck Locke :sad:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Congrats Jamie

Sorry Kazanne :(

[Benjamin]

Sorry to see you go Locke. Pioneers will win the victory for you.-

Last few hours. Soon as both teams threads containing all entries are posted in Creative Writing, polls will open. I'll require a Mods' assistance with this.

[Jamie585]

AHH i don't know who to nominate :laugh:

[Kate!]

Sir ShuGrrs' Summation, including the announcement of the winning team for Task 5!

Pioneer: I was looking forward to a chance for you all to submit your own efforts for a task since I believe that some of you have been carried thus far. The biggest surprise of this task, however, was that I feel that the weakest performer was the one who did all the work last time: ukturtle. I found your article, although well-designed and original, to focus too much on the name-calling and hate directed at Perez Hilton and only one of the paragraphs you wrote didn't contain some form of insult about him. It didn't read at all like a PR article, and I think you tried to be too funny and not take it seriously.
I was surprised to see Vanessa storming the public poll, too, since I believe there were two better articles than hers, and whilst her piece was very heavy on emotion and apologies, I felt that it could have been written better - these weren't paragraphs, they were just lines. Overall I think you had one of the easier subjects too, since Kristen Stewart isn't as awful as some of the other potential subjects.
MTVN, I originally picked yours to win because I found it the most positive spin about him, but on reflection it felt more like a blog post from a fan rather than something released by Rick Santorum's press team. The selection of quotes and subtitles you provided also made it quite a piecemeal approach, and took something away from your rhetoric skills, but overall I enjoyed your work.
Salman!, I chose you as the winner because I believe you took the most professional approach to article-writing. Often, stories leaked to the press by a celebrity's PA or publicist won't be so blatantly laden with positive praise, and here you created something relatively convincing and positive about Chris Brown without being so obvious a piece on behalf of Chris Brown's manager :laugh: if that makes sense. I also enjoyed your creativity with the Daily Mail template, and I believe you had the toughest celebrity to portray in a good light.
Lee, I felt that your writing was more of a review of the Jeremy Kyle Show than a PR piece trying to portray him in a good light. Whilst you were fairly convincing and made a handful of good points, I'd have scored you fourth in your team because some of the writing itself was quite informal and punctuated poorly, and it felt a bit amateurish :p

Prospect:
The competition in your team, I feel, is a little more tense because I think you're all on a similar level of ability. Therefore I was going to let this task be a decider, in a way, because I think it tested your ability to read the rules properly.
DrunkerThanMoses, I chose yours as my favourite article because I believe it was a clever mix of facts, media representation and personal opinion and was laid out quite nicely. I would have liked maybe a little more objectivity, because you bordered on the personal opinion side of things at times (rather than positive media spin without the journalist's P.O.V.) but all in all I think you did a great job.
Apple, with regret, I have to say I liked your article the least of your team. I felt that it was more a recital of facts and figures about Jessie J and it was just all too factual and unconvincing. It also felt a bit like a "This is Your Life" segment, and what we asked for really was for one article about something good or inspiring that she's done, rather than a mini-bio.
Munchkins, yours was a close 2nd favourite of mine. I would advise in future that you don't bold and make parts of your article double the size of the rest because it makes it a little more difficult to read (although I understand you're trying to emphasise things, and some tabloids do the same with media articles :laugh:) Again, I thought it was a bit of a blog about Kristen Stewart, rather than a news story that did something well to put her in a good light, so all in all it didn't quite fit the criteria, but I think you demonstrated good analytical and persuasive techniques.
Much the same with the other candidates I can say for yours, Jamie, as I felt the Jeremy Kyle piece was not terribly well-written, but tugged on the heartstrings in all the right places and made a fairly convincing argument in favour of Jeremy Kyle.
Roy, I felt your piece was a little shorter than the others' and although I enjoyed your writing style a little more than others' because it was freer and less reported, I don't really understand where this would have been published. It could have just been someone on Tumblr, it could have been a leaflet put through people's doors. I didn't think it was very convincing as a newspaper article, and I don't think it would have convinced the public to change their perspective of Mitt Romney - this would have been more suited to a Romney fanclub.

Overall
I think that Prospect had some well-written articles in general, but sadly I think all of them struggled to meet the whole 'PR' side of things. For this reason, I choose Pioneer as the winners, because I think some of their pieces would have looked more at home in journalists' writing and were presented with a neutral rationality, which made it all the more convincing

[Kate!]

Team Pioneer- Task 5 Summation

By Kate Brady :pipe:

ukturtle - I loved the style and layout of your piece, it was very eye catching. I found it well written and pacey, although you deviated from what I was expecting in that you did seem to heavily take the piss out of the unfortunate chap, yet I liked the irreverent tongue in cheek style so I can't be too harsh there. You also made yourself available to help a fellow team mate who was having I.T. issues with her finished article, very commendable as you were in direct competition. Brownie points for that :D

Lee - I found your piece punchy and humorous, it read well (imo humble opinion) and I really enjoyed it. Your warmth for your chosen celebrity was conveyed well, very persuasive and no - nonsense, much like Mr Kyle himself. It could have benefitted from a few frills, bit of colour and a better layout, but was a very good effort indeed.

Vanessa - You demonstrated a great deal of enthusiasm for this task, and you are a consistent hard worker who gives her all in every challenge. As an article your piece was great, it was interesting, and you had clearly researched Kristen well. Highly informative :) However, the P.R. aspect was somewhat less than I would have preferred, you concentrated more on making it a factual piece with a bit of a "sell" at the end, rather than much actual P.R.

Salman - Your style and layout impressed me no end, clearly a lot of thought and effort went into it, although you did have to be prompted (:p) I also loved your article, it was a good read, grabbed my attention and I liked your approach. You sold your celebrity well, using an element of humour and not trying to re-invent your celeb as a saint. Jolly good show.

MTVN - What I liked about your article was that you used a lot of quotes, which reflected your chosen celebs' good qualities and were a very good selling point. You broke up the article nicely with use of pictures and that made it easy reading, it had a nice flow to it. Again, you "sold" your celeb in an understated manner, and I found the article interesting and informative. You backed up your argument well with the use of statistics. Well researched.

*Also - I must give a couple of Brownie points to MTVN, who very kindly and on his own initiative closed the polls for me at the requested time. Marvellous! :love: Have a lollipop as well.

Task 5 Summation - Team Prospect
by Mollie Mountford

Apple202 - Your article showed how much of a successful international musician/pop star Jessie J is, reflecting on her outstanding music career and the public interest she's received worldwide. You showed her in a very good light, and it was a very well written and informative write-up, so good job.

DrunkerThanMoses - Your article was very impressive indeed, showcasing just what an honest successful businessman/television personality Piers Morgan truly is. Leaving aside the hatred for him, and instead showing to us all what a great honest chap he is. A very good write-up, excellent work.

Jamie585 - Your article showed that Jeremy Kyle is in fact a very nice chap indeed, illustrating just some of the ways he has helped make the world a better place. You managed to put across the message that he has helped improve so many people's lives, something we should all be grateful for, as if any one of us end up in that situation, Jeremy will be there to help. Good job.

Munchkins - Your article proved there is a good side to Kirsten Stewart, and how she hasn't deserved the bad press she's received. In turn you proved how she is in fact doing good as well, brushing off all the attention that has been drawn to her in a negative light. You did a very good job writing it up with the time you had and also I liked how you highlighted important positive things, such as the fact she is young and is genuinely sorry for her actions.

Roy Mars III - Your article showed just what a hard-working heroic chap Mitt Romney is. A beautiful write-up that brought a tear to my eye, and just sheer proof how robbed he was from the presidential election. If only you were his campaign manager, he would've surely won the race. Kudos.

[Kate!]

Now don't panic when you see this :hugesmile:

I am only setting it up for later and then I can quote it and edit a bit when I'm ready, will be much easier on my phone. ukturtle won't be online till at least 7pm I imagine (time difference) so Firings will happen later on tonight. We will go with the verdicts of whichever judges are online at the time :devil:

Team Prospect:

Munchkins! You received nominations
Jamie585! You received nominations
Roy Mars III! You received nominations
Apple202! you received nominations

Therefore.......

Team Pioneer

Vanessa! You received nominations
MTVN! You received nominations
Salman! You received nominations
ukturtle! you received nominations

[Apple202]

Plea incase of boardroom:

I hope the judges base some of the boardroom on previous tasks, as I know that my effort in this task may not have been the best recieved, however I believe it was just a blip that I can recover from, should I stay. I did put a lot of effort into this task, hence the amount of facts in there, and I understand that it wasn't as entertaining a read as the others but basically yeah, please take into account effort from previous tasks :)

OK I'm going out now so see y'all later :xyxwave: Good luck everyone!

Sir ShuGrrs' Summation, including the announcement of the winning team for Task 5!

Pioneer: I was looking forward to a chance for you all to submit your own efforts for a task since I believe that some of you have been carried thus far. The biggest surprise of this task, however, was that I feel that the weakest performer was the one who did all the work last time: ukturtle. I found your article, although well-designed and original, to focus too much on the name-calling and hate directed at Perez Hilton and only one of the paragraphs you wrote didn't contain some form of insult about him. It didn't read at all like a PR article, and I think you tried to be too funny and not take it seriously.
I was surprised to see Vanessa storming the public poll, too, since I believe there were two better articles than hers, and whilst her piece was very heavy on emotion and apologies, I felt that it could have been written better - these weren't paragraphs, they were just lines. Overall I think you had one of the easier subjects too, since Kristen Stewart isn't as awful as some of the other potential subjects.
MTVN, I originally picked yours to win because I found it the most positive spin about him, but on reflection it felt more like a blog post from a fan rather than something released by Rick Santorum's press team. The selection of quotes and subtitles you provided also made it quite a piecemeal approach, and took something away from your rhetoric skills, but overall I enjoyed your work.
Salman!, I chose you as the winner because I believe you took the most professional approach to article-writing. Often, stories leaked to the press by a celebrity's PA or publicist won't be so blatantly laden with positive praise, and here you created something relatively convincing and positive about Chris Brown without being so obvious a piece on behalf of Chris Brown's manager :laugh: if that makes sense. I also enjoyed your creativity with the Daily Mail template, and I believe you had the toughest celebrity to portray in a good light.
Lee, I felt that your writing was more of a review of the Jeremy Kyle Show than a PR piece trying to portray him in a good light. Whilst you were fairly convincing and made a handful of good points, I'd have scored you fourth in your team because some of the writing itself was quite informal and punctuated poorly, and it felt a bit amateurish :p

Prospect:
The competition in your team, I feel, is a little more tense because I think you're all on a similar level of ability. Therefore I was going to let this task be a decider, in a way, because I think it tested your ability to read the rules properly.
DrunkerThanMoses, I chose yours as my favourite article because I believe it was a clever mix of facts, media representation and personal opinion and was laid out quite nicely. I would have liked maybe a little more objectivity, because you bordered on the personal opinion side of things at times (rather than positive media spin without the journalist's P.O.V.) but all in all I think you did a great job.
Apple, with regret, I have to say I liked your article the least of your team. I felt that it was more a recital of facts and figures about Jessie J and it was just all too factual and unconvincing. It also felt a bit like a "This is Your Life" segment, and what we asked for really was for one article about something good or inspiring that she's done, rather than a mini-bio.
Munchkins, yours was a close 2nd favourite of mine. I would advise in future that you don't bold and make parts of your article double the size of the rest because it makes it a little more difficult to read (although I understand you're trying to emphasise things, and some tabloids do the same with media articles :laugh:) Again, I thought it was a bit of a blog about Kristen Stewart, rather than a news story that did something well to put her in a good light, so all in all it didn't quite fit the criteria, but I think you demonstrated good analytical and persuasive techniques.
Much the same with the other candidates I can say for yours, Jamie, as I felt the Jeremy Kyle piece was not terribly well-written, but tugged on the heartstrings in all the right places and made a fairly convincing argument in favour of Jeremy Kyle.
Roy, I felt your piece was a little shorter than the others' and although I enjoyed your writing style a little more than others' because it was freer and less reported, I don't really understand where this would have been published. It could have just been someone on Tumblr, it could have been a leaflet put through people's doors. I didn't think it was very convincing as a newspaper article, and I don't think it would have convinced the public to change their perspective of Mitt Romney - this would have been more suited to a Romney fanclub.

Overall
I think that Prospect had some well-written articles in general, but sadly I think all of them struggled to meet the whole 'PR' side of things. For this reason, I choose Pioneer as the winners, because I think some of their pieces would have looked more at home in journalists' writing and were presented with a neutral rationality, which made it all the more convincing

Team Pioneer- Task 5 Summation

By Kate Brady :pipe:

ukturtle - I loved the style and layout of your piece, it was very eye catching. I found it well written and pacey, although you deviated from what I was expecting in that you did seem to heavily take the piss out of the unfortunate chap, yet I liked the irreverent tongue in cheek style so I can't be too harsh there. You also made yourself available to help a fellow team mate who was having I.T. issues with her finished article, very commendable as you were in direct competition. Brownie points for that :D

Lee - I found your piece punchy and humorous, it read well (imo humble opinion) and I really enjoyed it. Your warmth for your chosen celebrity was conveyed well, very persuasive and no - nonsense, much like Mr Kyle himself. It could have benefitted from a few frills, bit of colour and a better layout, but was a very good effort indeed.

Vanessa - You demonstrated a great deal of enthusiasm for this task, and you are a consistent hard worker who gives her all in every challenge. As an article your piece was great, it was interesting, and you had clearly researched Kristen well. Highly informative :) However, the P.R. aspect was somewhat less than I would have preferred, you concentrated more on making it a factual piece with a bit of a "sell" at the end, rather than much actual P.R.

Salman - Your style and layout impressed me no end, clearly a lot of thought and effort went into it, although you did have to be prompted (:p) I also loved your article, it was a good read, grabbed my attention and I liked your approach. You sold your celebrity well, using an element of humour and not trying to re-invent your celeb as a saint. Jolly good show.

MTVN - What I liked about your article was that you used a lot of quotes, which reflected your chosen celebs' good qualities and were a very good selling point. You broke up the article nicely with use of pictures and that made it easy reading, it had a nice flow to it. Again, you "sold" your celeb in an understated manner, and I found the article interesting and informative. You backed up your argument well with the use of statistics. Well researched.

*Also - I must give a couple of Brownie points to MTVN, who very kindly and on his own initiative closed the polls for me at the requested time. Marvellous! :love: Have a lollipop as well.

Task 5 Summation - Team Prospect

Apple202 - Your article showed how much of a successful international musician/pop star Jessie J is, reflecting on her outstanding music career and the public interest she's received worldwide.

Roy Mars III - Your article showed just what a hard-working heroic chap Mitt Romney is. A beautiful write-up that brought a tear to my eye, and just sheer proof how robbed he was from the presidential election. If only you were his campaign manager, he would've surely won the race. Kudos.

[MTVN]

I don't understand how me, Salman and Roy got 4 noms when there's only 4 people in each team :laugh:

[Me. I Am Salman]

There's 5 on each team, it's because 2 people are immune which is why they're not mentioned :p

[Apple202]

There's 5 in each team :p

[MTVN]

Ah yes you are right, so I was nominated by everyone in my team eh :idc: time to defect to Prospect

[Marcus.]

Ah yes you are right, so I was nominated by everyone in my team eh :idc: time to defect to Prospect

[MTVN]

No no, they have been plotting against me for weeks, they're all in on it

[Roy Mars III]

Ah yes you are right, so I was nominated by everyone in my team eh :idc: time to defect to Prospect

[Kate!]

Quick update guys. I have votes from three of the 5 judges but theres no majority so I have to wait for either Shaun or Marc so can't put you out of your agony yet. :p

[Jamie585]

I'm pretty sure I'm going anyway :p

Will be on and off checking for the firing!

[Kate!]

Well well well.

This is nail biting. Four judges have voted and we are at deadlock! :eek:

Watch this space......

[Jamie585]

Can't we all be saved? :D

[Shaun]

so it's all down to me? ;)

[MTVN]

I'm hoping for a shock twist where the people who were given immunity have actually been fired

[Shaun]

I can write up the firings in here if you wish, Kate :)

[Benjamin]

Matt we have not been plotting against you. You didn't get any nominations last task. :tongue:

[MTVN]

Lulling me into a false sense of security, I see your plan

[Marcus.]

I'm pretty sure I'm going anyway :p

Will be on and off checking for the firing!

[Shaun]

Thanks Marc, will do

[Jamie585]

Lord ShuGrr it seems very clear to me and I hope to you as well that the man that must be fired tonight is sat to the right of me, Salman

http://i.ytimg.com/vi/-8FFuaYyCIY/0.jpg

I trust you will make the right decision

[Kate!]

Jim :laugh:

[LemonJam]

:joker:

[Shaun]

This one's a tough decision, because both of you have contributed well to all tasks. Jamie, this isn't your first time in this position and I'm beginning to suspect that your team mates aren't really in this as a team. I believe you've been one of the series' strongest performers and I believe this is a bit of a sabotage attempt by some of them. That said, this task you were sadly one of the weakest performers and - although I think Apple performed the poorest - I have to agree you should be here.

Roy, I also expressed concern with your performance in this task and said that your writing wasn't too convincing, and lacked neutrality and a professional finish. My main concern with you here is that you're up against one of the strongest competitors in the whole game, and although I've seen some good work from you throughout, Jamie has done well with pitches and you've been out-posted by him in every task.

For this reason, it is with regret that I have to say Roy Mars III, you're fired.

[Apple202]

Unlucky Roy, you were a great team member :sad:

Grats Jamie though! :)

Good luck to MTVN and Salman now

[Shaun]

Team Pioneer...

[Jamie585]

Oh wow! :D thankyou again shaun!!

Sorry to see you go Roy, Been one of our strongest members throughout :)

[Maia]

Aw Roy :( Well done though Jamie!

[Marcus.]

Unlucky Roy, you were a great team member :sad:

Grats Jamie though! :)

Good luck to MTVN and Salman now

good luck you two you be fine

[Roy Mars III]

figured I would be going against Jamie. Good luck to everyone playing, I will follow the game and hopefully someone from Prospect wins.

thanks Kate, Mollie for letting me play

[Marcus.]

Oh wow! :D thankyou again shaun!!

Sorry to see you go Roy, Been one of our strongest members throughout :)

Jamie well done saved again boom

[Shaun]

Again, I believe that two of the strongest performers in this task have been sent to the board room. In fact I would have ranked you two as the best this time around. So I really don't want to fire any of you, and now that my four members of staff have reached a deadlock I feel all a bit Louis Walsh if I'm honest.

MTVN, I've really appreciated the wit and humour you've brought to the game and obviously Jedi Jim is one of the greatest of all time Apprentice contenders, but at a couple of times in the competition I've worried that you've kind of hit a brick wall with the rest of the team and maybe haven't posted as often to try and take command, like some... benbers... have :idc:

Salman!, I did berate you early in the competition for a lack of effort, but I'm pleased to see that you've really upped your game in this task. That said, your efforts in the forum game task weren't really eye-catching - but this can be said for Matthew too.

I think this one's an even tougher decision, so I'm going to have to place this down to whose article I believed was the best of the entire competition, let alone his team. Salman!, go back to the house. MTVN, I'm sorry to say, you're fired.

[Jamie585]

Is the next task being set tonight or tomorrow?

[Kate!]

Thank you so much for playing Roy and Matt. You've both been immensely entertaining. :) It's testament to how tough it was to fire either of you that was reflected in our deadlock.

Congrats Jamie and Salman.
