Forming Team Fail States By Chris Garwood http://homepages.ius.edu/chgarwoo/
You’re kidding, right? • The whole idea of a club started during a round of bowling. • We thought about grouping some people together to form a bowling team…. • ….but we also wanted to see how far we could go before the bowling alley kicked us off of the league. • So to start, we came up with the best team name we could think of. • Team Money Shot takes life. • In the picture, you can see Josh and Jason celebrating over the recent creation of the team.
I hate bowling… • What started as a weekly thing turned into something done only when nothing was going on. • Sometime down the road, we just stopped bowling altogether. • We never got around to making the bowling team partly because of the cost, but mostly because we lost interest in the game.
So there is this dancing game… • Later, I discovered that Andamiro, the makers of Pump it Up, was starting a club system. • We decided to turn our three man club into one of the clubs on this system. • And now the recruiting for Team Money Shot begins.
They come in swarms… • At first, the recruiting was slow. • Everyone we talked to was like, “Meh, I’ll do it later…maybe.” • After about a month of promoting the club, we grew to over forty members. • We now span across Kentucky, Indiana, and Ohio and are one of the largest clubs in the United States.
TOURNEYS, TOURNEYS, TOURNEYS • Since formation, we have held seven events. • Kentucky • Two Exceed tourneys • One Zero tourney • One New Xenesis tourney • Indiana • Two Zero tourneys • One New Xenesis tourney • Ohio • None yet…. (lame, I know)
This team name sucks… • Some people think the team name is really bad and want it changed… • …but the name is supposed to be bad. Part of the reason we chose it was to make people mad. We wanted to see how much we can really get away with. • Brazil thinks the name is about “a big gun that shoots bullets made of money.” • Because of this, the name must be kicked up a notch. • We are currently taking any suggestions.
