WHOOPSY DAISY. I COMPLETELY FORGOT TO FIX THAT. Gimme a sec—
They're in the backdrops of this project. Put in the thumbnail too just in case. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/903010075/

Haven't done much about the time capsule lately—so sorry about that! Surf, I saw that you came up with a few mockups on the Canva—I'm hoping to have enough time to go through that properly today ^^'

UPDATE: Layout for the roster looks amazing! Also, the list of what order we're arranging things in looks good ^^

Oh my goodness, that looks so perfect! I think that's exactly the kind of thing we're looking for <3

Activities Project
I've posted the project here, but if I'm missing anything in the description or whatever, please let me know, and I'll make sure to take care of that.

Forgot about this, but apparently I have a soccer end of season meeting thing on Tuesday (tomorrow) in addition to robotics.

I'm pretty sure we've surpassed 5k as a cabin–so we have the kayaking activity next?

First and foremost: please check the text! Some bits might need rephrasing, I'm not sure? We can discuss design changes after that ^^'

I think the text looks good! Judging by how quickly the first activity was completed, we might want to add on another activity and then make the instructions to complete 2/3 of them? Though we could also just allot more time for the scavenger hunt

Yeah, I had a similar thought. I'm thinking what might work better is if they have to complete two challenges (they can be two mad libs, two prompt exchanges, or one of each), so that way, we don't have to create entirely new activities. But if you all have ideas for the activities that we can use, then that would be great!

What about collaborative chain stories? One person writes x words of a story, another writes the next x words, with a minimum of y participants? I feel like it might be a little similar to one of our other activities, though :sob:

Hmm, I think that could work, but yes, it's a bit similar to our six word story idea

Instead of that, maybe we could do an activity like “get to know someone you haven’t talked to before! then, write a xxx word story about something you talked about—maybe it’s focused on a lyric of a song they like, or one of their hobbies!” or we could do a xxx words of a real-fi roleplay?

Do you guys know if cabin wars is this weekend? If so, should we sent out the camp goals/cabin wars reminder soon?

Ooh, yeah, that’s a great idea! I feel like the story might be slightly better because of the role play daily

Okay, I'll link the updated slides to upload to the project in a second
edit: wait actually I have to go rn but I'll be back in a few hours so if someone can get to it earlier go ahead

for the message, does this sound good? feel free to edit because I wrote it quickly
Hi Name! Do you have any camp goals you'd like to set? These can be about writing or about anything else you'd like to accomplish this month, and we'll be checking in with you about them throughout the session! Also, here's a reminder that this Saturday, November 8th, is cabin wars!
maybe we could add something on for the new campers like: Cabin wars are a SWC activity where cabins send each other challenges to write a certain amount of words in a time frame! This is a fun way to work towards your word goal, though it's always important to prioritize sleep > SWC!

That looks great! The one thing is that I *did* see some people say cabin wars were on the 9th, so we may want to check up on that, haha

Can we just use a blanket “this weekend” ? :0

Also, any ideas on what we can call the third activity?

sorry for being less active–just got back from my trip and it was a lot busier than I expected :')

I sent out all the goals messages to my WCG
for cabin wars in the time capsule, we can tally words written by each person for cabin stats, and then do wars sent/received? I can start keeping track so far if that works
