A couple of tips...

Can I ask you use the team room forum for most or all your discussions as it makes judging who did what easier.

One other thing is please try and wait - a reasonable amount of time - for all team members to be around to contribute to the task and don't just jump into decisions. That gives team members who are not always online more of a chance to contribute.

Stu

06-09-2007, 08:12 PM

Can we all please confirm the above plan is what we have discussed on MSN by replying to this post?

Billy

06-09-2007, 08:13 PM

I agree

I'm very pleased with the progress that we've made tonight. Everyone has done their bit to contribute ideas and I think this task more people have stuck in to help out.

We are not jumping into descicions. All team members were online for the duration of creating this task. All have been given suitable roles.

I wasn't saying you were, just making a general point to both teams.

As our radio idea is alot of hard work, it's not always possible to wait for all the members to be online, they have other commitments aswell away from the show. If we need to make decisions then sometimes they will have to be made by the people that are online. We'd need alot longer to plan if you wanted us to wait around for everyone to be online. We will try our best to meet your tips.

Partly due to this task being a much longer , tougher one than the last one. We can pull it off.

Billy

06-09-2007, 08:21 PM

Mathew, its up to us to make something that givers us enough time to discuss though

Understood. In which case we have met all your tips with the exception of plans being planned out here , as we find MSN much easier. To combat this , however , I have drawn up our plan at the top of the page which details all the information you would expect. This is a very , very hard task after all , and TiBB's enviorment makes planning out quiet hard.

Timing is only a small part of it Billy. We have all day tomorrow to sort things out (well the few of us that aren't back at school yet)

Sam

06-09-2007, 08:57 PM

Okay to recap.

You have until Saturday night at 5pm to come up with three new threads.

James will make two sub forums for each team. You then post your three threads in these subforums. The most popular and replied to forum will win!

Good luck guys! You then have until Sunday night for people to post in these subforums!

The losing team's leader will chose two people to return to the boardroom. One of the three will be fired.

Details on the second firing of the night and the two twists, will be announced later.

UPDATE
Just a little update to notify James etc. of what is happening. All the technical side of things will be sorted by tomorrow evening, all of the radio software will be uploaded to the server and a new mini-site will be made by Matt which will display all of the contact information and a link the radio streaming.
Also a pilot show is being planned for tomorrow evening to make sure that everything is going to run smoothly. The first show is being planned for Saturday night and will hopefully take place from 6pm-7pm. Also another show MIGHT go ahead on Sunday, but only last for 45 minutes, maybe from 6:00pm-6:45pm.

Stu

06-09-2007, 09:57 PM

I wish to make an important announcement to all Taskjackers.

As Sam has said , this task is centred on Subforum Replys. With that in mind we could have an amazing station but it would mean nothing if people are not replying.

With that in mind I encourage everybody to do what they can to gain replys from members during the show.

I would also suggest that all shout-outs and requests be done via a thread , as opposed to U2U - as it will further our Forum replys even further.

Cheers...

Great idea Stu, you have been a great help! :thumbs:

A word of advice, publicity is assential to this task, you can advertise using sigs if you want, but you don't need to, as replies is what you need to win!

Nicola

07-09-2007, 11:49 AM

Yeah I've just been reading through the replies here and it sounds like it's starting to take shape.

I think a requests thread, shout-outs and general comments sound a good way to get started, once the sub-forums are up then we can all start as many threads as we like and see who gets the most replies.

I'd like it if every thread was replied to, regardless of who started it, and everyone is acknowledged within the team. As leader, I will be keeping an eye on the Forum to ensure it works out and is used appropriately etc.

I'm offline this evening, but will be around during the day today and also tomorrow to do whatever is needed.

We can only have three threads in the sub-forum.

Nicola

07-09-2007, 12:55 PM

Sorry I wasn't aware of that, I'll be looking at the 3 threads to see how many replies we get, did you want me to start all the threads when I get chance or do you want to decide amongst yourselves who starts them?

Yeah you can start them as soon as James puts the sub-forums online on Saturday, I was thinking the three threads could be:

- Area with link to mini website and a picture of the logo
- Requests and shoutouts
- Shows and presenters

What does everyone else think?

Nicola

07-09-2007, 01:06 PM

Sounds good, I'll be online Saturday anyway so I could create them then - anyone who's online when I come on can MSN me.

Any offers to design the logo?

Matt designed the logo yesterday, i'll find you the URL so you can see it.

Matt08

07-09-2007, 01:13 PM

Image no longer avaliable.

Nicola

07-09-2007, 01:15 PM

Wow, love the logo! I can see that this is going to take shape now, once I find my headset then I can set it up and you can show me the technical side if needed.

In the meantime I'm happy to run the Forum side of things for you all as I've got experience in that department.

UPDATE
Just another update to let James know what has been discussed today. The radio will not not be broadcast live due to technical complications, to replace it a podcast will be pre-recorded and named TiBBcast. Unfortunately Billy has decided to leave the competition, so there will now be four people working on the task. The podcast will be released early on Sunday. Most of the pre-recording is expected to happen tomorrow. Jingles and adverts will be created by Stu, Matt will be the producer. Also Stu and Nicola will be presenting with Matthew. We are currently in talks of us all writing our own scripts for the show.

Stu

07-09-2007, 06:16 PM

Matt08

07-09-2007, 06:40 PM

Could I do the late night lounge podcast instead of the music one please?

Matt

07-09-2007, 06:46 PM

I don't see why not... :blush2:

Matt08

07-09-2007, 06:51 PM

I've started to write up my script now. There will be a subject that members talking point where I will read out members views on a certian thing on the forum that's happened over the week, this show being TiBB Does the Apprentice, and hopefully i'll get Remy to do a voice interview for it. Also there will be a selection of songs. Can you think of anything else that could be used on the show?

Matt08

07-09-2007, 09:22 PM

Right, Remy has agreed to do an interview for my Late Night Lounge podcast. Here are the questions I will be asking him:

1. What has been your favourite Apprentice moment so far?
2. How do you think the contestants will react to the upcoming twists?
3. Do you think James was right to fire Sue and Andy?
4. Did Billy make the right decision by quitting the show?
5. Have you enjoyed presenting 'You're Fired'? What has been your favourite 'You're Fired' moment?
6. Who do you think will win the current sub-forum task and why?
7. Who do you think will gain the most confidence from their Apprentice experience and why?
8.What has been your favourite task of the series so far and why?
9. Who would you like to win 'TiBB does the Apprentice' and why?
10. Would you like to see another series of 'TiBB does the Apprentice?

Stu

07-09-2007, 09:45 PM

I shall do the Current Affairs and Music. If Nicola wishes to do Music , she is more than welcome to.

The idea for my current affairs show is to treat it as a serious show , but have completely unserious and satiracal subject matter.

Sam

08-09-2007, 08:02 AM

Quick Reminder:

All thread ideas should be finalised by 5pm tonight , and then the two sub -forums will be made at 7pm, and will close on the following day at 7pm as well.

The live show will begin at 7pm, with the announcement of the losing team straight away, the losing team's manager will chose two people to go back to the boardroom, and one of the three will be fired.

Then.. the two twists will be announced.

Matt08

08-09-2007, 02:34 PM

I think all of our podcasts should go online about 3:00pm on Sunday, then people will have enough time to listen and comment until they are locked at 5pm.

Sam

08-09-2007, 03:41 PM

As requested by both teams, you now have until 6pm for thread ideas!

Billy

08-09-2007, 03:43 PM

I know im not supposed to be here, but I just want to wish you ALL teh best of luck., You deserve to win :)

Ten minutes left!

Matt

08-09-2007, 04:53 PM

OK, basically we're doing a thread on each of the three shows we will be making.

I can't elaborate since that's all I know at the moment...

Sam

08-09-2007, 04:56 PM

Okay thanks, sub forums up in an hour or so
