This is the thread where the losing team can discuss where they went wrong.

Candidates must not post in here whilst taking part in the tasks, and only the losing team can post here.

Okay, guys. I'm obviously really disappointed that we lost, because I thought that we did well. Lord Stuart said that our format sounded very boring - which I personally disagree with, but it's a matter of opinion, I suppose. Emma, I do concede that if we had listened to you, we may have won this, and I apologise for not listening before.

I do think that Jordan should be fired, as he has contributed nothing to this task, or the task before. I certainly don't think it should be me - if I had been PM and made those decisions over and above everyone else's head I could see why he might fire me, but I was standing in for Jordan, I did the best I could and I made every decision on behalf of the team. If it wasn't for me, I don't think we actually would have got much done at all. I also don't think that either Eliza or Emma can be blamed for this task - the only thing either of you can be faulted for is Eliza posting in Team Sterling's thread, but that was an honest mistake and is a technicality anyway.

Yeh I'm sorry we didn't listen to you Emma but I have to say George, you have been a great stand in PM. None of us deserve to be fired apart from Jordan imo.

Thank you Eliza, it means a lot.

I'm just curious as to why Sterling won over us. I thought we did well.

Actually thinking about it, I do have an idea why we might have lost. I think it may have been because they had a clear target audience and we didn't, and that was clearly stated in the rules. While we thought about who is likely to be watching, we didn't have a clear market to go for.

That's the only thing I can think of. I'm sure that it can't be simply because Lord Stuart thinks Discuss sounds boring, because that's just his opinion and it would be unfair to base the results of the task on that. I also think it's very unfair if it's because of Eliza's mistake, because Eliza is new and may not entirely understand the rules. And it's not as if she was trying to cheat or anything, and it was the first slip-up. If we've lost due to that, that's really harsh.

It was clear to me that we were getting them, Lord Stuart said (and I quote):

'The costs of the items you found and fines will be added up and the team with the highest total will be the losing team.'

Did you not go for the cheapest items, Emma? I know I did, but I can't speak for JJ.

I'm sorry Emma, but that was clearly stated in the rules.

I'd like to point out (sorry for covering my own backside here) that in the first four items (which we spent less than Sterling on) three of them were items that I sourced, so I don't think I lost us this task. I thought JJ was the weakest team mate as he didn't do what I'd asked him, but I think you should take some of the responsibility for our big spend.
