-------------------------------------------------------------

I created this thread to discuss everything in.

So who's going to be the team leader? Any one want to volunteer?

Tom
25-03-2009, 03:53 PM
I'll do it if noone else will but I'm not too fussed so if anyone else would rather do it or recommend someone else to do it then go ahead

if so I nominate Sia :tongue:

Sam
25-03-2009, 04:31 PM
I wouldn't mind giving it a go, but if someone paticularly really wants to do it instead then I don't mind.

Anyone come up with any ideas for names by the way?

Tom
25-03-2009, 04:42 PM
I was thinking maybe we could take a letter from each name to make a new name?

So theres

» Loukas
» Nicky
» Sia
» Snig
» Tom

Take a letter from each one (in alphabetical order obviously, like letter from Loukas, letter from Nicky etc) to spell the team name

Sam
25-03-2009, 05:02 PM
That's a good idea, i'm useless at doing things like that though :blush2:

I did look through a few magazines for ideas of names. Put random words together lol.

I only got:

implosion, fusion, buttafucco, flame, rainbow riders, fabulators, verglas,
midgets in cupboards, the gingerbread men

it was quite a boring magazine all in all. slightly dissapointing. :whistle:

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 05:21 PM
If we look at Tom's idea we havee -

Loukas
Nicky
Sia
Snig
Tom

Lisso, Kisso, Akiso, Sisso, Lisim, Kisim..

Yea, you get the idea xD

and I don't mind who is captain :3

Sam
25-03-2009, 05:40 PM
Those names are pretty random lol.

Tom
25-03-2009, 05:57 PM
Random name could equal random logo? Random = memorable, so would be good for business etc etc :eureka:

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 05:59 PM
Good ideaa! :eureka:

Randomness FTW!

Sam
25-03-2009, 06:03 PM
Yeah i agree.

Oinks! :hugesmile: Piggy logo anyone? :tongue:

Matt
25-03-2009, 06:07 PM
Note
You have until 7.30pm to decide your team leader, and inform me who that is. Any candidates who haven't been on here by then to discuss the matter will have forfeited their right to help choose your leader.

Oinks! :hugesmile: Piggy logo anyone? :tongue:

YES

love it :lovedup:

But see who team leader is first and what they think

Sam
25-03-2009, 06:13 PM
Right, well I guess we got to make a choice, otherwise it looks bad on us. Sia and Loukas aren't online so if we all vote someone we think would make the best team leader and then ask them to choose someone if they come online before that? :)

Tom
25-03-2009, 06:16 PM
Well do any of you two really want to do it?

Sam
25-03-2009, 06:24 PM
I'd like to be it, but if you or Nicky would rather then you can be it. :)

But I have one problem with our idea. Although random is good, it's also got to appeal to everyone who's voting. It needs to be funny but also have the "OMG THATS BRILLIANT" thing about it when people see it.

Tom
25-03-2009, 06:27 PM
I vote you as team leader then :tongue:

And I agree, but Oink would be more memorable and the logo could have the pigs tail forming the 'o' or maybe one of the nostrils :tongue:

Sam
25-03-2009, 06:30 PM
Aww thanks. If we went for it, we could have a default logo then a few "special edition logos" . We could photoshop random members faces on the pigs as well, i'm sure including members of the forum will get people laughing, and more likely to vote for us.

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 06:47 PM
I vote Sam too! :spin:

And I adore OINK!

Sam
25-03-2009, 06:54 PM
I'm really bad at photo shop, i'll leave that to Nicky :hugesmile:, but i made a few mock ups to show my idea

http://i41.tinypic.com/2qu7q1e.jpg

http://i39.tinypic.com/28kredk.jpg

http://i44.tinypic.com/11wadt5.jpg

You get the idea lol, i'm not suggesting any of those members are pigs, i love them all... but first ones i saw in the meet the members thread :wink:

Tom
25-03-2009, 06:59 PM
Yeah I really like that idea

if Nicky does the photoshopping then maybe its best to draw a new pig from scratch instead of pinching one from google (if thats what you did)

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 07:01 PM
I will make a quick mock up one in a minute, and show you what I'm thinking! :spin:

Sam
25-03-2009, 07:02 PM
LMAO yes it was. And i agree, but I can't photoshop to save my life you see :P.

Seen as though the others aren't here we might as well make a start.

I guess you voted me team leader then.
:shocked:

So, final team name? Oink? Oink!? Oinks!? Oinks?

And once that's sorted Nicky can have a play around with the logo, if we're all happy? :D

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 07:07 PM
I think 'Oinks!' would be catchy? :bigsmile:

Sam
25-03-2009, 07:14 PM
Yeah, what do you think Tom?

Oh&

should we have a team slogan? That'd be good.

Be a pig? You know you want to.
We play dirty?

Something catchier though :L :tongue:

Tom
25-03-2009, 07:18 PM
Oink: We don't play dirty

Pigs are actually very clean :tongue:

Erm no idea, btw Sam are you definitely team leader? Have you u2ued Matt yet?

Sam
25-03-2009, 07:21 PM
lol tom. welll you both voted me, and the other two aren't online, and we need to elect someone, and i'm happy to do so :)

Tom
25-03-2009, 07:22 PM
u2u Matt then :cheer:

Sam
25-03-2009, 07:28 PM
Ok done.

Firstly, you must name your team. Pick your name wisely - it will stay with you for the rest of the show. Following this, you must create a logo, banner and avatar for your team.

Finally, you must sum up the concept/theme/idea behind your identity in a short paragraph.


Team Name: Oink
Team Leader: Me

Logo
Banner
Avatar [All of which Nicky is working on]

That leaves the paragraph to do. How about if each of us contributed a little bit to why we think Oink was good? Then put all our bits together to make a super paragraph :lovedup: oinkoink

Matt
25-03-2009, 07:30 PM
Team leader discussion time is now up.

You have chosen Sam (Snig) as your team leader.

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 07:36 PM
Okey, I know the face is c**p, but I'm still working on it!

http://i40.tinypic.com/2dkmmph.png

Tom
25-03-2009, 07:46 PM
I love that logo, maybe a few tweaks on the pig itself but I think thats really good

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 07:47 PM
I don't do pigs it seems! xD

Its just not sharp enough.. grr!

Working on it still like, it was just to give you an idea :3

Sam
25-03-2009, 08:10 PM
http://i42.tinypic.com/35mgxgo.gif

Team motivation.

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 08:21 PM
Lol @ that xD xD

http://i44.tinypic.com/2l8c4yx.png

What you guys think?

Sam

http://i39.tinypic.com/9sv66f.png

hay nicky.


LMAO joke. I love yours! Did that one cos I was bored , like i said i am graphics illiterate.

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 08:26 PM
LOL ty xD

http://i41.tinypic.com/2lsz1hl.png

Or something a bit fancy?

Sam
25-03-2009, 08:30 PM
I prefer the second. Surely it needs a tail? :lovedup: Every pig has a tail :P

Sam
25-03-2009, 08:38 PM
I think the avatar should be the O of Oinks on its own. Then the banner with a logo on saying "we don't play dirty." :bigsmile:

What do you think Nicky?

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 08:46 PM
http://i42.tinypic.com/20lbw5.png

Hows that?

and the avatar and banner sound gurd!

Sam
25-03-2009, 08:47 PM
team name, tick.
team slogan, tick.
team logo, tick.

that leaves the banner and avatar to do :) oh and the short paragraph

Loukas
25-03-2009, 09:26 PM
Sorry i have just got online and i think Oinks is a great name! Nicky that logo's amazing i was thinking of some slogans for Oinks

'We don't Roll around in mud but we still go Oink!

Sam
25-03-2009, 10:05 PM
We also have to write a short explanation of why we chose oinks.. I thought all of us could add a little something.

We could say we chose it cos its fun, unique, not boring and that this isn't a graphics competition. As great as the logo is, even if the team come up with an even better amazing out of this world great graphics set, we can say we wanted something fun, something which represented us as a team, pigs :P :tongue:

Ha, but seriously, i bet the other teams idea isn't as fun as ours :D

Loukas
25-03-2009, 10:11 PM
Pigs are smart but underrated

Pigs are curious and insightful animals thought to have intelligence beyond that of an average 3-year-old human child. They are smarter than dogs and every bit as friendly, loyal, and affectionate. Scientists and scholars who have studied pigs say that pigs are the smartest animals outside of primates. Says Dr. Donald Broom, scientific advisor to the British government, “[Pigs] have the cognitive ability to be quite sophisticated. Even more so than dogs and certainly three-year-olds

:laugh:

Oi Oi OINK :lovedup:

Sam
25-03-2009, 10:12 PM
That's a good idea Loukas, we could talk in the pitch about how great pigs are then relate them to us. :tongue:

Loukas
25-03-2009, 10:17 PM
Exactly. :thumbs:

That's exactly what i was going for. What do you want me to do team leader?

Sam
25-03-2009, 10:19 PM
I think we're alright atm. Nickys finishing the graphics I think, but you could play around with some sigs and avatars if you wanted. Any more ideas for the speech thing could be good too, other than that I think we're fine :)

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 10:31 PM
Do you guys prefer this?

Yes! I love it. I also think everyone should make their avatar a picture of simply the 'pig' icon. (y)

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 10:35 PM
Whoo!

and totally!

I think we have to wait till Friday thoughh!

Sam
25-03-2009, 10:38 PM
It's looking pretty good I must say. :bigsmile:

Tom
25-03-2009, 10:40 PM
Do I have to lose my epic avatar? :bawling:

Sam
25-03-2009, 10:46 PM
Matt has said the other team has finished, and has asked that if we want, we can have the live show tomorrow.

I'm sure we can make that deadline, but nicky's doing the graphics so it's partly up to her.

What does everyone think?

Tom
25-03-2009, 10:47 PM
Yeah might as well, no point in wasting time

Sam
25-03-2009, 10:49 PM
Ok, apart from graphics we just need to right a short description about the idea behind it all. Is it ok if everyone just posts in here why they think Oinks in a good team identity? haha.

We can put them all together then

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 10:51 PM
Will get them done as soon as I get in tomorrow (about half 4, 5 ish I will be online)

Tom
25-03-2009, 10:52 PM
Right well Nicky its almost fine as it is, maybe for the avatars we could just have the pig face and the o? doesn't really need the inks I suppose

Sam
25-03-2009, 10:53 PM
Yeah, it's only the sig that might involve a bit of work.

Tom
25-03-2009, 10:54 PM
Also ideas behind it:

- Representative of names (made up from letters when names listed in alphabetical order)
- Pigs are clever/clean etc :tongue:

Erm, not much else. Its fun, stands out, memorable?

Sam
25-03-2009, 10:58 PM
I feel kinda bad that Sia hasn't had much imput into this task.. but I can't seem to get hold of her.

Loukas
25-03-2009, 11:10 PM
My description of our team.

O!nk, a team full of intelligent underrated people that are curious and insightful. In a way we are like Pigs, pigs are all the statements i mentioned above. You may be surprised to learn that pigs dream, we dream to. We are the dream team.


Personally i think its really really s*** but what do you think?

Sam
25-03-2009, 11:12 PM
That's awesome Loukas. Just need one from Nicky and Sia if possible. I'll add to it when I send it in :)

It's good but lacking that "edge" i reckon - I think it just needs a thicker border, and a black border round the eyes.

getting better but i'm not overally keen! i think it needs only a few solid base colours really to stand out, it's more a pretty graphic than a logo

Nicky.
25-03-2009, 11:16 PM
Ah well, you can re-do them if you like, took me a while though xD.. and all the others like them..

I'm going now, see ya tomorrow :)

So have we got this avatar?
And I'm not sure I get this - write a paragraph on our team?

Loukas
25-03-2009, 11:22 PM
Heres some random cool facts about pigs that we can use..

- Pigs form complex social units and learn from one another in ways previously observed exclusively among primates.

- pigs can signal their competitive strength and “use this information to minimize overt aggression during disputes about social ranks,” just like many primates (including humans)

- pigs can develop quite sophisticated social competitive behavior, similar to that seen in some primate species

We have to write a paragraph about why we chose the name, why we chose the logo, the whole idea in general.

You seem pretty good at this stuff, so if you want to write the paragraph you can, seen as though you weren't assigned a role, it would be a real help :)

The name "Oinks" was chosen for a variety of reasons. Firstly; each initial comprises of a member of the group. Secondly, the pig connotations represent each individual personality of the diverse group. Pigs, contrary to popular belief, are clean animals which are insightful and thought to have intelligence beyond the average 3 year old. They are loyal, friendly animals and have a high cognative ability. For each aspect, a member of the groups personality clearly shines through. Nicky demonstrates the loyalty and friendliness, Loukas; for who has an abundance of insightful thoughts, Sam for his high ability and intelligence, Sia for her [[[insert something here]]] ... and Tom, because he is just a bit smarter than a 3 year old.



uhm, that's a mock-up. what'dyou reckon?

Well, do you want to make the Sig?

I know Nickys made a logo, but she already has quite a few graphics related jobs.

So If you want to make that you can :)

I can't think of anything else we need to do

HELPFUL!? Sam how? If i havent done anything. I have contributed to anything and it's really not my fault either. I tried writing a discription but Sia made her own one now we are going with that, i am going to so get fired if we loose this task simply because i havent been assigned a roll that i can do well in.

I understand why you're angry.

How about if you write a part two to the descritption, giving more detail of your opinion of the team.

I didn't deliberately not give you a role, and it wasn't your fault either I agree, but we had to sort of get on with stuff otherwise we would have missed the deadline.

I'm not angry, i just feel like i'm not needed, which i absolutely hate, i feel like i am not a member of this team and i just stand back and let everyone do it, which i don't want to do. I have wrote my discription already, Sia wrote hers and yeah it's 10xs better than mine hence us using it so i think its just going to be a waste of time writing a part 2 to the description, it's pointless it's just giving me a job for the sake of giving me a job, which i also don't like.

Team Sig:

http://i39.tinypic.com/3132c1w.png

Description:

Team Oinks. We don't play dirty. The name "Oinks" was chosen for a variety of reasons. Firstly; each initial comprises of a member of the group. Secondly, the pig connotations represent each individual personality of the diverse group. Pigs, contrary to popular belief, are clean animals which are insightful and thought to have intelligence beyond the average 3 year old. They are loyal, friendly animals and have a high cognative ability. For each aspect, a member of the groups personality clearly shines through. Nicky demonstrates the loyalty and friendliness, Loukas; for who has an abundance of insightful thoughts, Sam for his high ability and intelligence, Sia for her [[[insert something here]]] ... and Tom, because he is just a bit smarter than a 3 year old. Our aim was to create a team identity, memorable and unique. We hope that you like it.


(Just need to insert Sia's part and I think we're finished!]

hahah the insert sias bit needs to be relevant to the pig description i gave
like nicky was loyal and friendly, like a pig, etc. i guess if we can't think of one we could just put nicky as loyal and sia as friendly? or the other way around? idk..!? :P i

also I LOVE the banner now, and the avatar :D IT'S SO COOL! but I don't like the pink bit of this the "we don't play dirty" bit

the problem is, it's not relevant to the description concerning pigs. The initial sentence described a pig and our personality described each part of a pig :P
thanks for the lovable bit though! I guess we could say 'Pigs are lovable animals' to get past that but are pigs strong minded!? and am I?!!?! :P

Don't be silly! Of course you're needed. Your comments on this thread have been useful to everyone and your edited version of my paragraph was what made it completley relevant and towards the task :).
I guess it's annoying - it's a bit annoying for me too, but at least you did the job which you were assigned to do, and you did it well. No one can complain about that :)
Also I thought yours was more of a jokey paragraph, had I realized it was the real thing I wouldn't have written an extra one, so I'm sorry about that.
