THE APPRENTICE [Taking out the trash.]

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Thu Aug 04, 2011 3:31 pm

Post by Blackberry »

Welcome to
The Apprentice
!

I, Blackberry, am looking for an Apprentice to assist me in the co-moderation of an upcoming game I am planning. This apprentice will assist me with storyline development, plot twists, game mechanics, updates, etc. With our powers combined, we will create the ultimate Mish Mash game that will go down in history as the BEST GAME EVER.

But first, I must select an apprentice to moderate this game with...

Thus, you all will compete to be my apprentice. The rules are posted below. To /in, simply post so below. The competition begins...
now
.


Team Eucleia

  • Cybele
  • Mist7676
  • DonJosh
  • animorpherv1
  • kloud1516
  • Thomith
  • ZazieR


Team Excel

  • Leonshade
  • Tragedy
  • SleepyKrew
  • kiwieagle
  • CSL


Exterminated

  • 13th:
    TornadoSwirl
    [fired]

  • 14th:
    Chevre
    [fired]

  • 15th:
    TwistedSpoon
    [fired]

  • 16th:
    cjdrum
    [fired]

  • 17th:
    Quilford
    [resigned]

  • 18th:
    JDGA
    [resigned]

  • 19th:
    diginova
    [resigned]



Task #1: Learning the Fundamentals

  • Mist7676
    (Eucleia) vs.
    Tragedy
    (Excel)
  • After explosive drama, involving a decapitated horse,
    diginova
    resigns from Team Excel
  • SleepyKrew
    is invited to take diginova's spot on Team Excel
  • Team Excel was defeated in Task #1
  • JDGA
    resigns from Team Eucleia,
    Thomith
    is invited to take JDGA's spot
  • Quilford
    resigns from Team Excel,
    CSL
    is invited to take Quildford's spot
  • Tragedy
    selected
    kiwieagle
    and
    cjdrum
    to join her in The Boardroom
  • cjdrum
    was fired because he was a mime

Task #2: Please Me... Aesthetically

  • Cybele
    (Eucleia) vs.
    Leonshade
    (Excel)
  • After a back and forth between the two Project Managers, both declined the deadline extension opportunity
  • The teams argue over the concept of a banner
  • Team Excel was defeated in Task #2
  • Leonshade
    has brought
    Chevre
    and
    Twistedspoon
    to join him in The Boardroom
  • TwistedSpoon
    was fired due to lack of commitment

  • Chevre
    was fired due to lack of activity

  • TornadoSwirl
    was fired because he was a tree stump


The Rules

I.
Each round the teams will compete in a
Task
. Each team will designate a
Project Manager
(PM) for the task. Tasks may involve game design, storyline development, or perhaps even startegic gameplay.
II.
After the Task is complete, I will invite everyone into the
War Room
. For a designated time we will engage in discussion in the forum. I will then reveal which team lost. The losing team's Project Manager will be responsible for selecting two other contestants that he or she thinks performed the worst during the task.
III.
In the
Boardroom
I will evaluate the three contestants (the Project Manager, and the two selected contestants) and will decide whom to fire.
IV.
The game continues until only one contestant remains, The Apprentice.

Disclaimer: The winner does not necessarily get excluded from playing the future Mish Mash game and will have the option of playing instead if he or she wishes to do so.

ummm.. maybe you should finish the games that you have run and stalled BEFORE trying again?

This game is to help find someone that will prevent any future games from being abadoned. :wink:

The game will begin Monday. Teams
may
be announced and begin strategizing before then, but the game and first Task will begin Monday (assuming a proper number of participants have applied).

No, only people that I thought were active in Mish Mash and potential apprentice material.

Btw, you might want to know my gender if you want to be my apprentice... :igmeou:

I invited people to let them know about it. I will accept everyone and give everyone an equal shot. Unless you are an ex of mine. In which case you will be eliminated based on bias.

Well, there's a few things that you should remember to do.

1) Eliminate Lurkers/Inactives.
2) Prod everyone massively
3) Get the Activity up.
4) Remember to exercise.
