Team-building Challenge (time to make the sausage)
Right now, there are 177 individuals signed up as volunteers and 20 teams vying to work strange hours for complete strangers (but needy nonprofits) at the Nerdery Overnight Website Challenge. On January 18, a dozen well-stocked teams will be picked for the March 20-21 nerdathon. No team has their Golden Ticket stamped just yet. Some teams are full (10 people) and others are several helpers short of being viable candidates. All will be decided Monday. The 12 best-qualified teams will be in.
Between now and then, though, there are deals out there to be made. There will be arm-twisting, cajoling, smack-talk, horse-trading and probably a few indecent proposals. Perhaps short-handed teams will merge and swear new oaths (in addition to their usual swearing). Some liken the making of Overnight Website Challenge teams to the backroom deal-brokering that comes with lawmaking, and some say it’s no less gruesome than the sight of making sausage. These are things perhaps best done behind closed doors. You don’t want to watch.
