I do have a problem with RadSpyro choosing to label me as a non contributor, when have again and again explained what I feel I need: (a discussion on desired level themes ) ( some in game enemy testing )
to be able to do quality work as a writer. And while I feel he is charging in head long without those things, I off no resistance, as it makes sense to him, and I don't want to limit his creativity, even if it goes beyond some limitations and requirements I feel I need for my own.

Will you please stop putting words into my mouth. This is about the third time now. Nowhere have I labelled you as a non contributor, all I stated was that I felt you were more interested in gameplay than writing the story, which you openly admitted you are, since you have an opinion that differs from the rest of the team.

My position here is Writing (along with you) and Art (along with Sheep and Breaking Bad). Game enemy testing as well as level themes are outside the writing area, which you (and I) signed up for. I assumed that you would be discussing the plot and script with me, nothing else.

I am doing this in my free time and intended it to be fun, but the arguments you are bringing up here are making it the opposite. I've made it clear that I understand how you feel, but I simply do not agree. You have to understand that I can't change everything I've planned just because one team member objects.

I wish you had brought up the specific issues you've outlined here to me in private instead of trying to fix it in a roundabout way by arguing with me about structure. We might have been able to work something out.

Thanks for your time.

I have some problems with titles being the only thing involved in votes. But I can live with that. Ideally we'd discuss issues in which we have interest, and are planning to contribute in, even if it means Sheep does some art, or someone does something outside the title.

I do have a problem with any relationship where communication is stopped. It is no longer a relationship.I understand you want to see the SFG see the light of day. A teams members expressing their feelings on a matter of importance to them will not stop that.

Best of luck.

....Perhaps RadSpyro feels he can contribute best that way, but I do not.....

I actually feel that I could contribute a lot more, but I'm sticking to what I signed up for. I agreed at sign up to stick to my own parts, otherwise I wouldn't have signed up at all. On that note then, are you still actually interested in writing, or just level design? You haven't shown much interest in the story since you want to focus on gameplay.

What's raising my blood pressure right now is that you're still arguing with me about it. Please, accept the way it is or go do your own thing instead, or I will have to give your position to someone else. This is not a constructive line of discussion.

Let it happen. Let people show you what peoples contributions are. Let organization grow on its own naturally, instead of trying to force puzzle pieces to fit together. You'll do wonders for your blood pressure.

I think the positions were created to be sure that our bases were covered. They are, and then some. We have multi-talented members on this team,people who can do things in different places.

I can see the 'titles' as useful, as it shows who was most eager to nab a position, though I think we also need to acknowledge that diverse set of talents.
I don't know what I'm suggesting exactly Stormy, just that in general, we allow people with strong opinions, supported by good points, to have some say so, as long as they are willing to do some work, of course.

The key phrase here is "willing to do some work," which, after talking to Sear/Burst on Spyrochat, seems to not be something he's interested in doing. This is also evidenced by the fact that, like I said, he never signed up to do anything, and I'm not about to put people in positions to do work that they aren't willing to do. And the consequence for choosing not to do any work is that you don't get a say, no matter how strong your opinions may be.

Basically, if you didn't sign up, this event is not about you, and that was your decision. Now that we've started, the positions are set and are not up for debate. They are also not just suggestions as you seem to be describing here. I made them with the clear intention of those who signed up for them doing the exact work they signed up for, like RadSpyro describes:

This is exactly right; that was the whole point of having signups and teams in the first place. Not everyone has to know about every single aspect of the project; it's much better and more organized if everyone sticks to one or two specialized areas. I tried to make this project as much like it actually would be in the game development industry from what little I know about it.

In the meantime, I'll be posting an updated storyline soon.
