Okay - there are problems with originality; but I think we should also look at the fact that I was the ONLY person who submitted a proper idea.

Also - I think part of the blame will actually come down to how much work people have done. The entire task, honestly, it felt like it was just me and Zak in this team because we did nearly EVERYTHING by ourselves. Naruto & Justin contributed practically nothing except a logo (Justins favourite area) and half a quite-short pitch each.

But if this is the best idea anyone had, then you are all to blame? Where was the alternative original idea LAS asked for?

Yes, I would say that you were the only person on the team who's had this concern throughout the task, but you rarely spoke up, and when you did, your objections didn't seem that big to me.

I know you're making a MASSIVE deal out of this; but, it was just a suggestion - and it was actually separate to my idea in the first place. It was later down when Justin asked about a plot that I mentioned it.

Once again, sorry, but I disagree.

His counter-argument to my 'lack of originality' was to copy the concept of Lost.

I came up with the idea of a island where a person would team up with three other people and fight off animals and monsters as a team, but others had already championed Carlisles idea from the set go, and didnt give other ideas an opportunity.

He did mention it at least once, though and he did say in his eval that he felt it could be criticised for being too similar.

Ok, I answered that questionably targeted post by Carly earlier that I did suggest ideas that nobody listened to. Additionally, no one could get a word in about Carly's ingenious fool proof plan because he literally took all of the credit and if anyone suggested anything contrary he got defensive. He even bragge about being on such a roll and doing most of the work, where his work ultimately was our downfall.

I also said no one raised the idea of sustenance to me. Finally, I DID take issue with the initial dystopian idea BECAUSE it was t original and totally crafted a story by myself an created a world for Elysium.

BIB - who, please?

Nobody else had any ideas except NarutoFan's 'Lost' idea. Where people get trapped on an island due to an event and they have to survive & collect and gather.... a la LOST.

This isn't necessarily true, Naruto. I thought due the lack of space on an island there wouldn't be much of a map for the game to have a real, interesting plot in comparison to the idea of Carlisle's, which had potential. The concept of an island wouldn't have been successful with such a small place.

That is BS, you KNOW I contributed more than that. I am the ONLY reason we had ANYTHING original, Carly. Grow up an take responsibility for your downfalls, or is your ego to big to handle that?

I think thats unfair. In the delegation of the tasks, i said that i would like more stuff to do as i didnt get a fair amount to do compared to yourself. And the task i did, i did to my best and made it as best i could, whereas your part of the pitch, where you commented specifically on THG, drew a unnecessary fire on originality whereas it could have been easily avoided.

See my posts about him and his only idea, 'Lost' II.

I will reiterate now for the THIRD time that I tried to suggest an idea for a genre of game that people dismissed because they weren't familiar with it.

No, you didnt let me explain the whole idea and straight away shot it down without even thinking because you thought your was the best.


An island doesnt necessarily have to be small, it can be quite big sometimes.

Lmao, it's pretty funny you talk about MY ego!! Who was the one who before we started this process said repeatedly "Oh i'm going to walk this."

And, what else did you contribute then? You contributed HALF a pitch and a logo. As well as some factors of the plot - but a lot that we didn't use because it was ridiculous.

If you look backl, NarutoFan, I didn't actually shoot it down. It was Zak who said that it was a bit of a silly idea - so, lets not blame me/scapegoat me more than is already necessary?

I couldnt steer it away as everyone had championed the idea, and it was three against one, so i couldnt do anything else or a argument would have ensured which would have created a negative atmosphere. If three people had agreed on a idea, and one didnt, the majority verdict would just follow.

You didn't do jackshit except provide us with two lines of information about the site which any of us could've gathered immediately just by looking at the 'About' page on the website!!

You realise you live on an island, right?

I designed specifics of plot that were ridiculous? When did you raise this to me or let me know it? Also, I expressed confidence once. Where's the person that said they were on SUCH a roll because you commanded that you do all the work

But when i had said my idea you had said,

'I still love my idea though'.
