What was your favorite aspect about Globe Blitz? I loved that the tasks were different to be tied in with each school!

How did you work with the other members of your Scouting Group? I loved working with Niniel and Leonie! I felt so bad for Niniel, she kind of disappeared for awhile when she lost electricity (and therefore internet) for a long time!

Any requests/suggestions for an activity similar to this one in the future? I would love to do this again! I wish there were more we could do to improve our players' scores so that a lot more of our work would affect the outcome as opposed to luck

Thanks Arianna! We actually did want to offer two different options for Training Clinics (one writing, one graphic) so you could choose the better one for your team, but it seemed too complicated for the first run of Globe Blitz.

What was your favorite aspect about Globe Blitz? * Co-creating things with William and Wicki (Team Blanx!). Both of them are fun to be around, well, Wicki is fun to be around and I learned to dodge hexes really well ...
How did you work with the other members of your Scouting Group? * See above although I think the word would be 'play' and not 'work'
Any requests/suggestions for an activity similar to this one in the future? * Please do have it again! It was tremendous fun.

What was your favorite aspect about Globe Blitz?
The run for good players (i.e. trying to be first to solve the Portkeys)

How did you work with the other members of your Scouting Group?
Maxim was great! He was always first with thinking of possible passwords to get us into the forum. The Training Clinics we did together (he was awesome at creating the Rookie Cards) and I solved the puzzles.

Any requests/suggestions for an activity similar to this one in the future?
It was a great activity! I agree with Arianna on the 'luck' part. Now it seems that people who happen to be around at the right time, were getting the highest scores. It would be nice to get more competition going through tasks, rather than time-based.
