In terms of working, day 4 was actually only half a day. But since the last day of WeCamp would also just be half a day, some work had to be done. The team focussed on finishing their MVP and ended up actually finishing this as well! A great accomplishment for a team that, 4 days ago, did not know eachother at all.

After lunch the Pragmatist Survival Game was scheduled. We were randomly assigned team mates (get out of that little comfort zone you built during this week!) and went on to do four different games. The games were: A balance game to get team members over the water (preferably without falling in), trying to get as many floating items out of the water, making a fire and lighting gun powder with it and sword fighting. It was awesome to see everyone get into their pirate role so well, including the secret assignment each team got, which was to make a song or poem about Mikke One-Eye. For me personally it was fun to speak to and work with some people from outside of my team as well. And I succeeded pretty good in the whole “being a pirate” by stealing the tally stick of another team, thereby robbing them of the points they earned. Unfortunately our plan to add those points to our own points was stopped by the pirate leaders denying to add it to our points. Still, we earned a third place, which I think is pretty good, out of 8 teams.

Then it was time for the Enrise BBQ (which I was told by Eli should actually not be called a BBQ, but rather a grill-out). This was a perfect way to end the day with all attendees, plus some extra guests: Rick and Stefan from Enrise, Merel and a friend (Merel is the awesome graphical artist who did our coach avatars) and my wife and kids. The night ended in the big tipi around a campfire. I hear some people didn’t go to bed until 5AM. Not surprisingly, this morning the stand-up had some people missing in action.

Today is the last day of WeCamp. It means polishing up the projects, preparing the presentation and delivering the presentation. For me it also means sitting down with my team members to evaluate their personal goals for WeCamp. It’s going to be an interesting day.
