Welcome to

I, Blackberry, am looking for an Apprentice to assist me in the co-moderation of an upcoming game I am planning.

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.

You can still run one, while joining mine, all at the same time! ^_^ I remember Norinel ran one and I got into the final two and then it was abandoned... I think.

Nah I'm no where near done developing it and I'm involved in a lot of other crap right now too lol. I would join though if I wasn't modding a mini-theme.

You have two hours to change your mind.

Or else.

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).

Well I already have an idea for a game that I think would be great.

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...

You're still telling me that you can't accept certain people, right?

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.

Posted: **Thu Aug 04, 2011 6:44 pm**

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.
