LINKS THAT WILL HELP
CHANGE ORDER: These are your NEW Team Names...I have decided that the strictly descriptive ones are not good enough for a group such as we have in this class...So here they are:
"Pre" is now "Team We-Ain't-In-the-Prisoner-Takin'-Bid'ness" AKA "WPA"
"Prod" is now "Team Zombie-Kill-of-the-Week" AKA "ZKW"
"Other" is now "Team Captain-Billy's-WhizBang" AKA "CBW"
The reason for this change is that we are changing the job descriptions of the teams. The Layout of our book will remain pretty much the same but our jobs will change. The New team names are "Cool" in my Less-than-hip-Old-Guy-Opinion and have virtually nothing to do with the operation or objectives of the teams.
On or before Wednesday's class you will have assignments for each team posted on this page.
