On the fourth week of class, we finished up Fiasco. My group and I zoomed through it. We finished up the game in 45 minutes and spent the rest of the class time watching the other group play theirs. It was a very fun experience, and all our stories were hilarious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our story ended with my character shooting my crime partner. But to retaliate, my crime partner shot me back, but only grazed me from two feet away. I couldn’t have him live, but I felt so guilty killing him, so I decided to erase his memory with a device that was hidden in the pile of guns. I failed, but I didn’t know I failed, so I called the ambulance over (even though we are in the Antarctic) to take us out and treat us. Our third player was having a life in another dimension because they got trapped in their owned portal experiment. Because of that, I framed them for blowing up the science building we all worked at (even though I planted the bombs) and for shooting me and my crime partner. For the montage at the end, I ended up being great. Injuries were fully recovered, I made a book about the whole incident and got a lot of money from it. I was rich. Meanwhile my partner was in two comas which lead to him forgetting his memory. But I paid for his medical bills because I felt bad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This week was a lot easier. Since we had practice from the first week. We all had an easier time creating scenes. I pretty much learned the same things I did last week (improve skill development, teamwork, communication). But I think a new thing I considered was storytelling. I was conscious of how the story was progressing and tried to create twists and turns to make it more interesting (i.e. me shooting my partner…but then I felt bad, so being evil didn’t last long). Although I wasn’t too successful at it, I was conscious of the story progression, which can be a key skill when communicating with other people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The hardest part about this week was finishing up too quick. We didn’t know what to do with all that free time, so we ended up watching the other group and having a blast. It was a week of fun and laughter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
