Snakes & Ladders

Yay, I'm super excited! Thankies Jade (the most wonderful and amazing events planner ever ;) ) I can't wait for this to start ^-^

@PhoenixAsh

Thank you so much! And I just hope it doesn't flop honestly XD But thank you <3

@PhoenixAsh this is so so exciting for suree!

@windflowers i didnt sign up for this event so i wonder why i was tagged

@CaringBrit

You were tagged because your leader gave me your name. I apologies for any confusion! Could you contact them and ask, please? <3 Thank you!

@windflowers I'm really confused, I didn't hear anything about this before. The leader is a teen, so what do I do? How did some people get picked for this? ie. there are people on the disability team where I am not familiar with who they are.

@windflowers i would have appreciated being asked if i was interested first before just being tagged to something i didn't sign up too we tend not to just nominate people without asking them first and i havent received any response from them for anything team related on teen disability yet so i doubt ill get one reguarding this

@AffyAvo probably mostly teen Disability members yh im an adult but on the teen team too

@CaringBrit Why aren't they listed as leaders on the SC leaders list or dashboard?

@AffyAvo that only the teen leader can answer hareio is on there or should be and noah is on there too as team member but a teen leader is the CML only they can add but as far as im aware they are busy with school

@AffyAvo @CaringBrit

Honestly, I have no clue how you guys were picked. I asked the leaders of each team at the end of July if they could form a team of 8 who'd like to participate in this event, and your usernames were submitted to me; to my knowledge, every other leader has asked their teammates and all seem to be aware of this. I was quite surprised that the two of you had no idea of this, and am really sorry about all of this! I think it was probably just miscommunication somewhere along the lines, and for that I take responsibility. I'm sorry to the both of you and to everyone else who's confused about why they were tagged.

If you can't message your leader, that's fine; I'd suggest either picking a representative who can or tagging them in a private forum thread to discuss. Does that sound reasonable? For the next round I'll just leave out disability support; I really don't want to inconvenience all of you like this, and sincerely apologise again.

@windflowers im ATL so can message the leader but as for actually getting a response an explanation why we were noinated without our awareness of the project thats a different matter neither of us were asked if we wanted to participate but was chosen because we are on the SC leaders board for disability some havent been chosen because the leader cant message adults just ATLs but i wasnt even contacted at all prior

@CaringBrit

I hear you - like I said I genuinely have little idea of what's gone on here but for the inconvenience and frustration I've caused you today and yesterday I really apologise. Thanks for trying to help out. I hope this gets resolved soon <3

I'm not against participating, I'm just very confused as it sounds like we should have already agreed to this and I see nothing anywhere else about this, let along already having agreed to participate.

@AffyAvo thats my exact question i wasnt aware about this project at all but was put foward for it and i havent agreed anywhere etc

@CaringBrit @AffyAvo

I hear you both. Thank you for reaching out to me!

Wooohooo! This is exciting! Can't wait to get started!

@AnyaS

Yay! <3

@windflowers Ooohh sounds fun! :'D Though, a smol question :p Soo the game is about finding facts or shoutouts? I am a little confused about that hehe.

@helpfulShip8154

It's only this round that's going to be shoutouts because it's A&G! Sorry for the confusion <3

@windflowers Ah okay.Thanks for clarifying! .-.

@windflowers When will this round end?

@PhoenixAsh

Good question - I realised yesterday I forgot to put it in, sorry! It'll end 31st August at 9am ET. Further rounds will be shorter but since this is the first round it's a little longer!

That is very good to know since for some reason I didn't get tagged at the start of Round One. Go us!!!!

@windflowers @emsworld @RaspberryCheesecake @InspiringLee @Samar27 @cyanPlatypus6370 @imsorryitry @iNoah @PawsitiveVibes

@windflowers I'm really confused who goes in what round?

@AffyAvo

Hi! Each subcommunity takes turns to 'host' and other subcoms then have to find facts about that subcom. <3

@windflowers You said we would be out a round, but I don't see us being included in any round?

@windflowers What colour are we supposed to use?

@AffyAvo oooh looks like disability has been removed - probably because of the confusion with the team members for the team I believe we are taking it in turns to be the team that the event is in (i.e I am on the ED team - and I assume that will be coming up shortly, and the event is currently being hosted in Depression Sub-Community) but all other team members, including the team hosting can join in! Not sure what is happening with Disability, since I think the last it was talked about on this thread, it was discussed that many team members didn't know they had been submitted to join the team and that disability was going to be left out until it was sorted

@emsworld Oh, I just saw that we were going to miss one round, I didn't hear anything about what to do after that!

@AffyAvo It doesn't look like anything was posted after that - but on the main post Disability has been removed
