WEEKLY TASK #6

HMs,

Wow, we're up to the 6th task already. Time flies.

This task is entitled, The Fun and the Serious. It will test both the fun and the serious side of each of you.

The Fun...

For the fun half, you all have to choose 3 different web based games that everyone can participate in. (For example, Scrabble at Yahoo.) Then, for the next 4 days, you can play as many of the 3 games as you want with whoever's online at any given time. (You may want to start a "Let's play a game NOW!" thread or something, and post in it when you're available for a game with someone)

Once the 3 games have been selected, the points system can be worked out.

For the group to win this section of the task, all HMs and Intruders must play at least 5 games of each during the week.

Additionally, there will be individual points awarded to the overall winner of the games, along with colours for a day. 2nd and 3rd will also win individual points.


... and the Serious

For the serious half, each HM and Intruder must make one of the following threads:

1. Creation vs. Evolution
2. The Middle East Conflict
3. Drugs (The War on, Legalisation, etc)
4. The Role and Purpose of Religion (Personal opinions)
5. The Universe and Beyond (Other planets, solar systems, life?)
6. US Foreign Policy
7. History thread (Ancient and Modern, Empires, Dictators, etc)
8. Cloning, IVF -- how far is too far?
9. Movie Discussion Thread*
10. Book Discussion Thread**

... and each HM and Intruder is expected to actively be involved in each thread.

Also, the original thread creator should do a small bit of research into the issue, and make the thread in such a way that encourages/demands discussion.

The discussion threads don't have to be wrapped up within the next 4 days. In fact, the longer and more in-depth they are the better.

You also must decide on what percentage of your points you want to wager. (Points Rewards will be announced in 24 hours!)

Any questions concerning the task should be raised in this thread.

NOTE:

*= Choose a movie before 1970 that no one has seen, rent it out, give a review each, and discuss. (NOTE: You have up to 2 weeks to allow for organisation of this)

**= Choose a book of any description, borrow it from a library, and each HM and Intruder must read a chapter at the same time, allowing time for discussion at the end of each chapter. (NOTE: The book doesn't have to be completed within the week)

 

This sounds hard...

Whoah... this sounds like a tough, but possibly very fun, task.
