Task 4 Summations:
Team Pioneer - Kate Brady
I'll keep this short and sweet, as Lord ShuGrr has provided a detailed critique for this task, just my own off the cuff impressions.
It appears that ukturtle did the lions' share of the work on this task, however I am aware that team members were all allocated individual jobs to do, it's just that evidence to show exactly who did what is thin on the ground?
Salman showed great enthusiasm by putting forward ideas straightaway, and I noted both Vanessa and Locke make some contribution and acknowledge their allocated tasks, so assume they helped in this way?
Lee made mention of working on tasks also, so again I assume that means she made her contribution?
MTVN posted once only to my knowledge (edit : apparently it is three times :amazed:)
Team Prospect - Mollie Mountford
The team decided to, at the beginning of the task, not start work on it until 12pm the following day, something I was worried would put them at a disadvantage to begin with.
However throughout the weekend, they all put a substantial amount of effort into it. The team collectively came up with an idea for a zombie survival style game called "The Living Dead".
I was exceptionally impressed with the effort DrunkerThanMoses and Munchkins put into the whole plot of the game. As well as this they and Roy Mars III all worked together on ideas for the game concept, logo and pitching. Apple202 and Jamie585 helped along the way with their additional suggestions, as well as an award icon courtesy of Jamie585
I didn't see any input from Kazanne in this task however, which was a slight disappointment, but the team still worked impressively using all the resources they had.
Lord ShuGrr - Summation
Prospect:
I like the whole zombie theme and it's obviously all quite creative and interesting and everything, but I was keeping updated by reading your thread every now and again and just facepalming at the similarities to my own game :/ In the end you shifted away from this... but then came up with, I apologise, but a very confusing and muddled format. I honestly can't make a head or tail of your "how players are eliminated" section... there's something about points and battles and redemption?
It just all felt like a bit of a tribute to some of DrunkerThanMoses' favourite movies. I'm also a bit embarrassed and saddened by some of your attempts to rubbish the other team's efforts... it was pretty cheap of you.
One thing I will say in your defence is that I liked that you went to the effort of designing a forum award, application form and signature - even if the font on the signature is one of the most garish and disgusting fonts that exist.
Pioneer:
Clearly, a lot of effort has been put into coming up with tasks and at the end of the day these are the crucial factor in a forum game. The graphics were also quite nice, and I like the idea of a TIBB game where members partner up for a change.
I went into this task pretty much believing Ben would be able to pull off this task single-handedly given his history, and I've got to say he met expectations and surpassed them, pretty much doing the entire task by himself... I'm really disappointed by the efforts of some of the other team members, and am tempted to fail them for this, but at the end of the day I just have to pick which game I think I would be more interested in, and that's this one.
