: I recieved an email yesterday from someone wanting to join the Empires of
: Earth team (which currently consists only of me). Once he sends me a
: sample of his work or two, I'll decide whether or not he's on. You may be
: wondering why I'm posting this (as am I). This will be my first group
: Marathon project, and as team leader I feel I should know how to handle
: all this. But I don't, in fact I'm very uncertain what to do.
: Oh, and if there are two people working on Empires of Earth, that greatly
: reduces the chance that it will die (which is good, cuz dead scenarios
: aren't nice).
He may be able to do the things you can't. But be warned, do not under any reasoning rely on his effort alone. Members can come and go for many reasons. Another thing to consider is would it acually help your senario. He may do some thing great, but if that has no place in your scenario then you really have no need for him.
