Drat! Well Done Team Oinks! :wink: :bigsmile:

Nicky. 07-04-2009 07:54 PM

Thank youuu!! :cheer2: :cheer2:

JOSHUAH! 07-04-2009 07:55 PM

Picto I appreciate you're point, I'm not saying Team Fetch's story should have been set in a fairground, just somewhere more original than a phsyciatrists office.

Locke. 07-04-2009 07:55 PM

Yes!!

Matt 07-04-2009 07:57 PM

Thank you Joshuah!.

This means that the score is Oinks 2, Fetch 1 - meaning that Fetch face the firing.

As there are only three candidates left in the team, all three will face the firing.

Sam 07-04-2009 07:58 PM

I hope you stay Loukas, but good luck to all Fetch.

Tom 07-04-2009 07:58 PM

Good luck

Nicky. 07-04-2009 08:01 PM

Good luck :)

Matt 07-04-2009 08:01 PM

...but before Team Fetch plead their cases, I'd like to inform you all of some news.

Earlier this week, both team leaders, Nicky (Oinks) and Sam (Team Fetch), who were both elected by their teams, were offered a secret mission.

Their mission, should they have accepted it, was to become saboteurs, doing everything in their power to make their team fail the task.

If they had succeeded in making their team fail, they would have automatically passed through the firing - meaning their two team mates would have been sent packing.

But did they accept the offer?...

Either way, the one about seeing Britney was a bit unoriginal. It seemed to me just a way of ticking the boxes with forum members. I can imagine this being pitched in a boardroom and all the boring executives asking "can we throw in some Britney? Sales should boost by 40%". I did, however, think the interactive element was a stroke of genius :)

Call me biased if you will, but I preferred the Fetch one. It was different, but Magic's claim of plagiarism (or at least using a similar character to the book he mentioned) is interesting. I haven't read it, so I can't comment. But yeah, it was more interesting to read than the other story.
Hold on, who was it who included Mean Girls references in their team identity to try and make it more popular?

Nicky. 07-04-2009 08:02 PM

YOU LIED TO ME MATT :shocked:

And the ones who used Britney in their advert? :tongue:

Matt 07-04-2009 08:05 PM

...well, I can confirm that both Nicky and Sam declined the offer, stating that they'd rather make it further honestly.

This means that the firing will now proceed as normal, with the three Team Fetch candidates facing the axe.

Loukas, Sam, and Sia, you now have until 9.15pm to tell James why you think he should save you.

Your comments could make all the difference - remember it's a double firing!

Tom 07-04-2009 08:07 PM

I was getting worried then :dance2:

Shaun 07-04-2009 08:07 PM

Fat lot of good that did :tongue:

And what I'm saying is that it's unoriginal. You don't see previous Apprentice teams called Fetch, but you see a lot of old stories in the Creative Writing section mentioning Britney Spears.

I'm not getting into an argument - it's just my opinion. It doesn't have any influence over the decision and I understand. You both worked hard and well done on winning.

Nicky. 07-04-2009 08:09 PM

Thank God I said no! xD

I would have been byebyes D:

You also see stories impersonating TiBB members

Matt 07-04-2009 08:09 PM

Sam asked me to post this on his behalf if he couldn't make the show:

If this is being shown to James right now then It obviously means that we have lost... for the fourth time – which really isn’t very good. But I don’t think I should be fired as I put in extreme effort into this story. I stayed up till late making sure the story was at the quality I wanted it and also spent ages on the illustrations. I have survived three firings now and hopefully after this I would have survived four. But being against Loukas, and Sia – especially Sia. It’s going to be pretty hard to get to the final in this position. I can’t decide for you but I think I would make a good apprentice due to the large amount of effort I put in and the drive I have. Thanks for the opportunity.

Matt 07-04-2009 08:15 PM

Thank you candidates.

It's now up to James to fire two contestants, so it's over to him...

Loukas 07-04-2009 08:18 PM

I have been on the winning team more times then any of them, and i have also brought my team (When i was in Oinks) to a win. Sam and Sia, i feel, have given all they can give but i have so much more to show. I have come this far and i think i can make it all the way.

[edit]

Sorry i didn't post within the time.. Nature Called.. :blush2:

James 07-04-2009 08:27 PM

Now this is tricky... I don't know who did what. :tongue: Most of the discussions seem to have happened off-forum.

I preferred the Outside the Box story btw, I think it was pretty well written, so as I said difficult decision...

Nicky. 07-04-2009 08:33 PM

Good luck everyone, you did well getting this far... sucks it's a double TBH!

Also, that's a fair opinion James :3

Matt 07-04-2009 08:42 PM

Apologies for the wait :tongue:

Nicky. 07-04-2009 08:43 PM

Anything interesting in the Football thread? Chinese Whispers? Maybe pointless celebs?, James?

James 07-04-2009 08:47 PM

Tom 07-04-2009 08:49 PM

Well hurry up and go on something

James 07-04-2009 08:50 PM

I don't know lol.

Tom 07-04-2009 08:51 PM

Instead of which 2 do you want to sack, which one do you want to save? :tongue:

Nicky. 07-04-2009 08:52 PM

HAHA!

*sets up camp*

Loukas 07-04-2009 08:53 PM

Sam 07-04-2009 08:55 PM

Sir Alans getting a big old now... needs more time to think :tongue:

Tom 07-04-2009 08:55 PM

Anyone for voluntary firing? Sam?

Sam 07-04-2009 08:56 PM

Sam has sent me a u2u saying he would like to automatically be fired. That's nice of him :tongue:



joke.

Sam! 07-04-2009 08:58 PM

I personally have no idea how ours is the most unoriginal. But whatever. I was pessimistic for this one, I didn't wanna be let down if we lost again. Lucky I was pessimisitic. Ey.

Sorry for the delay.

Okay here's the decisions, don't blame if it is the wrong one because you decided everything on MSN as far as I can see.

I don't even know who wrote what, as I said I did think your story was well written, a character piece rather than focusing on pure story.

Based on how much leadership has been shown so far in the contest and the contributions out of the three in the tasks I think Sia and Sam possibly deserve to stay more so...

Loukas you're fired.

Okay second to be fired, I guess with the problem with the task discussions not being on the forum, but flip of the coin probably...

Sam you're fired.

Good luck with the next task, and use the forum for task discussion instead of MSN.

Sam! 07-04-2009 09:00 PM
