Now, soufflé, Esmé's meme is meh, Kit's tits kick ticks, R.,, we're now going to head to the boardroom and discuss just that - what happened. And as for the panopticountolaf ..... Well, I'm afraid that failing to deliver anything is unforgivable, and as such, the project manager must take the responsibility. And so It is that, with regret the panopticountolaf, you're fired!! The rest of Team 1, I want each of you to tell me what your ideas were, how far they were able to progress, and why you failed to deliver. At least one more of you will still be fired.

the panopticountolaf had the idea to "base our campaign around the phrase "20 years of..."? (i.e. "20 years of sad orphans" "20 years of weird shipping")" For the video, the idea was to put together screenshots from old threads showing different aspects of the forum and matching the "20 years of" things, for example discussing the books and posting theories, people from all over the world becoming friends, people meeting Daniel Handler, moments like award ceremonies and also some forum drama. Then we were going to add some fake screenshots of future posts including a user called "You", which would be representing our target audience. We were also thinking of reading out some of the posts and there was going to be some music. R. and I looked for old posts for the screenshots and Esmé's meme is meh was going to put them together for the video, and then several people were going to do the talking and soufflé was going to provide the music. I don't know how far Esmé's meme is meh got with the video before he ran out of time and if soufflé had already started working on the music, and I don't think any voice recordings were done. There were going to be multiple posters, again showing the different "20 years of" things. the panopticountolaf said he was going to do them, and I offered to help creating the later ones when there was a style for me to copy so they wouldn't look different, but then he also ran out of time so there are no posters. I don't know what happened about the slogan, I kept reminding the team that we need one but got no reaction from anyone, so I should have just made one up but I didn't. In my opinion the task failed because we gave ourselves too much to do instead of just following one clear idea. I learnt from the first task that we need to do proper teamwork instead of everyone throwing their ideas in one pot and see what happens, so I said at the start we need to start by thinking who our target audience is and what would attract them, so we could have thought of a slogan from there and the built the video and poster on that, but then people started throwing ideas around.

I should have been Blac Chyna project manager
First, I'm the one who started the PM to start planning the project.
Second, I was the one who proposed to make a video focusing on the greatest moments of 667 through the years and then make a segment about how the next 20 years are going to be, focusing on bizarre scifi situations to keep the forum alive
I wanted to be in charge of the posters with the different slogans but ULO asked to do it himself.
I also had to insist Sophie and Roxy to take part of the project. Roxy particularly had an attitude first but then collaborated with finding stuff for the video.
I had part of the video done but kept waiting for Sophie's music to make sure the sequences made sense, because if the musica chosen was too tragic or too hip or too pop some parts wouldn't make any sense.
I always thought we agreed the slogan was "20 years of 667 Dark Avenue" and then different words/phrases (20 years of drama, 20 years of friendships, 20 years of Unfortunate EVents, etc). Maybe it was more of a concept than of a slogan? Idk but I shouldn't be fired.

R., can you explain what Esmé's meme is meh means when he says you had an attitude? I was very busy when the task began and found it hard to keep up, so I wasn’t sure what to do so I asked him to assign me a task. I don’t remember any attitude.

Okay, well, after some deliberation I've come to a decision. Esmé's meme is meh, it seems to me that you've contributed to this task, so you're through to the next task. Kit's tits kick ticks, soufflé, R., you're still in the firing line. I am going to ask you each a few more questions before making my final decision.

I think I should stay in the competition, because I’ve had an incredibly busy few days at school with practically no time to contribute to 667, but still attempted to help, unlike Kit's tits kick ticks who deserted st the last minute.

I don't know what R. is talking about, I did contribute to the task! I tried to help keeping the team focused and working together. I wasn't very happy with the idea we went with, because I thought it wasn't following a clear enough concept, but I still made some suggestions and put my ideas forward (like the "You" target audience user), and I was still looking for threads to use in the video not long before Esmé's meme is meh said he wasn't going to finish it. R. and soufflé both didn't take part in the actual discussion of ideas, they just waited to be assigned a task, which they then didn't even do much of (or in Sophie's case I haven't seen/heard any of it so I have on idea what and how much she has done).

Okay, I'm going to summarise. R., I have some concerns, very deep concerns, about your abiltiy to contribute enough towards this process as we go forward. There's no smoke without fire, and I'm getting a lot of signals about you, which is very concerning. Kit's tits kick ticks, It's not very encouraging to hear that you have ideas, but seem too content to sit back and wait for other people to make the decisions for you. In buisness, you need to make yourself heard, you can't let youreself not be to listened too. soufflé, the fact that you seem to have completely dissappeared doesn't do a lot to convince me about your contributions, and because of that.... I'm struggling to make a decision here. ... Kit's tits kick ticks, I think that I need my Apprentice to be someone who can put more responsibility for the task upon their shoulders, and I don't feel that you've done that in this task. However, You did seem to prioritise the target audience during this task, which was a key feature for me. With that in mind soufflé, it is with regret, that you're fired!!! ... Kit's tits kick ticks, I'm making you the project manager for the next task, so lets see if you can put your money where your mouth is. Now, R., I am very concerned here. I'm very, very uncertain about you continuing in this process. and with that in mind... ... you're on your final warning. I'll see you on the next task.

We're taking a break for the anniversary celebrations, with the next task beginning on Saturday 25th.
Yes, thats Saturday, not Sunday. I've decided to shift the start of the tasks forward a day to give people the weekend to use a bit more.
The teams are also being changed up a bit. Roxy is moving over to Team CV, and Bryan is moving to Team 1.
Countess Violet: GlitteryMisery Semblance VioletBUnfortunate (PM) Roxy
Team 1: Zortegus Anka (PM) Byran
