TASKMASTER

By: CreativeMod1, Ariel, and Noraa



Welcome back or welcome to Season 2 of MS: Taskmaster! You may be curious who our Taskmaster is this season. Well, our first big announcement is that our Taskmaster is.....

Spoiler:
Cephrir!

Image


We'll have five teams of three people performing various team and solo tasks. When every team has finished their tasks, we'll have a live show showing off everyones tasks and the Taskmaster will award points based on how much he liked your team's performance. The team with the most points wins the Season 2 Taskmaster championship.

This season will be run exclusively through discord, so if you don't have an account then you'll need to make one. Spectators are also welcome to join, but keep in mind that you won't be able to see much until the live show when all the tasks are done.
https://discord.gg/kV7a9D7U3Y

Some example team tasks (
definitely not stolen from Season 1
) would look something like this:
Task: The Free Encyclopedia
Required Materials: None
Who can attempt: Team
Submission: Text


Task: 4000 Words
Required Materials: Camera
Who can attempt: Team
Submission: Photograph


Task: Egg or Hat
Required Materials: None
Who can attempt: Discuss as team, but only one person may actually attempt.
Submission: Text
After you start each individual task, you will be given the exact task. For example, Egg or Hat may be:
Start a new thread in General Discussion or the Speakeasy. Once you create the thread, you and your teammates may not post in it again for the duration of the challenge. Whoever makes the thread that receives the most replies after a week wins. You may not ask people directly to post in the thread. In addition, our Taskmaster does not know about this challenge. If you are lucky enough to have your thread graced with his presence you will receive a bonus point.

You have 48 hours to create your thread. Your time starts now.
Here are some links to Season 1 to give you an idea of what you're getting yourself in for: Ep 1|Ep 2|Ep 3

Alright, that's all we've got for you today. Want to sign up? /in in the thread. It's okay if you don't have a team when you /in; you can figure that all out as more people join!

Also, we are setting up a spectator area on the discord, whilst you won't be able to watch the players do the tasks until the live show. You will receive updates, be able to watch the live show as it's happening and even be able to do the tasks yourself. So this is also an option for anyone who wants to do the tasks but without the pressure of forming a team and putting on a show (or if you miss out on signing up)

Sometimes when I'm thinking of a track to submit, I think to myself "okay I could submit X, but I know a lot of people won't care for it, there's no point in wasting their time and mine". Glad to see [CaptainMeme] isn't burdened by such thoughts.

Oh? It’s hard to follow a game on discord. I thought it was just for team chats?

Tbh, most of it is team chat, like there's not a lot to follow

I made it sound a lot more fancy then it actually is, it's more of you can be told the tasks without the need of a moderator.

The tasks themselves are all stuff to be done off forum anyway, I'd suggest watching some of the Season 1 videos to get an idea for it.

But yeah, most of the use of Discord is just simply talking to your team
