Public Speaking

I have never been good at public speaking, and the last trail in the globaloria challenge is of course a presentation that any one can watch. Over 6 billion people can see this presentation, that means one mess up and the world will laugh at you. The stress is killing me, I have to do the power point while rae finishes the coding.

beat into their heads

The hardest concept to get to people is that one person can make a huge difference. They just don't seem to see that they are just as powerful as the two super hero's in our game. Even if we us super hero's to clean the oil instead of real people, it's to show that if two people can clean it by their selves's then hundreds of people working together could easily do it.

We gotta be sneaky

I think using flash as a way of giving information can be both a good and bad thing. On the good side it could be used to make actual news interesting. On the bad side it could be used to scare people on something that's not that big of a deal. If used for good if can be a great tool, but if used for evil it would be a terrible weapon.

back to tutorials

I thought we were past tutorials, but i guess not they are still very helpful. I also noticed that the citizenship community got a massive population increase and even if it sounds tacky, welcome. Our dead line creeps closer everyday and flash isn't making it easy but we have come to far to be stopped now. I found a tutorial on the wiki that shows how to make the other symbols you don't control react according to how you move giving it a low level AI.
