Re: [Isugamedev-midworld] organization and tasks

[Michael H. <mh...@ia...>]

   Well, being  a young and relatively inexperienced member I probably 
shouldn't be in charge of anything, but I would definitely like to help with 
storyline, general design, and anything anybody needs help on.  Also, if I 
could be paired up with someone (a 'mentor' perhaps?) who could show me what 
they're doing and give me some small tasks to accomplish while teaching me all 
they know, I could more effectively help the group.  This 'Yoda'-type person 
would be greatly appreciated and would also serve the purpose of passing on the 
superior knowledge and skill of the present senior members to the future senior 
members of the club.  :)  Let me know what you think.
