First day of coding! 13/3

Yesterday (13/3) we had a workshop on teamwork from 9:30 (it was suppose to start 8:30 but some were late for the train) - 13:00, this had a questionnaire as its central tool on trying to get us to know our strengths and weaknesses as members of the team. To be honest we just wanted to get started on the project - I personally felt that it was like taking a nap in a sofa while you tried to run a marathon.
But we had a very nice experience, we saw that no single team member had more correct answers than the correct answers that was reached by consensus among the team members (by the principle of "negotiated majority rules"). Hopefully we will also get some valuable insights into the strengths and weaknesses of our team-members when we have a chance to sit down and look through the results.
After launch we had the first real opportunity to sit down with the team members and get some code going!
The agenda for the rest of the day was:
  • getting commit access to GIT.
  • getting the play instances started.
  • dividing into subteams.
  • choosing a logo.
We completed all tasks but the last: choosing a logo - but we got a lot of good ideas going - maybe you have a suggestion or some feedback?
Also we divided the team of 10 people into two, the service subteam and the frontend subteam:

  • Service - Subteam leader: Attila
    • Nacho paired with Patrik
    • Roman paired with Pedro
  • Frontend - Subteam leader: Kræn
    • Bernhard paired with Karina
    • Mina paired with Dmitrijs
We were very exited by the fact that every team member had the code checked out by the end of the day - we were ready for the day to come.

Attila has compiled a Youtube timelapse video of todays work :)
