for this scenerio I will not mention any names of the ppl involved in it. however it is just my personal comment and feelings about the situation.

firstly, after the final presentation, everyone had written 100% in the peer evaluation form. Some of us were truthfully not happy with this person - (lets say X) getting 100%. previously, the leader had told X before we filled the evaluation form that X did not deserve 100% and that X should get 80% only - straight forward right? but yes the leader is a v.straightforward person.. but X ignored the leader and filled in 100%. the rest of us speechless did not say anyting or object to it. for myself, i intended to follow the leader which i already had told him. nobody said anything so fine i thought the other 2 were OK with it so because they had put in the same amt of effort as me.. who was i to complain? i thought i would just give him that 100% and let it be over and done with. nobody said anything after that.

2 days passed, one of the grp members - Y told the leader to let the supervisor know about this issue. leader decided to email the team member except X to write comment regarding X to be forwarded to supervisor. i have the intention of marking X down so I wrote the comment that out of the whole project X only contributed the following:

1.Help Option (content written by another member),
2.Project Website (other than main page and contact us, rest content edited/done by other member).

leader forwarded own, Y and my comments to supervisor. supervisor called X to ask about this and arranged a meeting + brought the accessor to attention about this matter. the last team member clearly did not mind if X got 100% but would not stop us from telling the supervisor.

yesterday, an online discussion was held by the 4 of us. X had sent a "threatening" sms to the rest of the team. i duno how threatening it was but its sth like 'Why you all not happy with the evaluation? you all think you all should get more? I dun wan to go down and be arguing with u all'. Y wanted to back out. leader explained that it was too late to back out. of course i feel the same too because i already wrote that comment and was prepared for sth like this to happen.

we had a poll to decide average % to give X. i had given the lowest 65. the rest gave70 and above which i felt is not going to mark X down. and if they wanted to give 70-80, i my as well give the 100% and not bring this issue up to the supervisor. i wanted to fail X but the rest wanted to pass X. i explained that passing X could mean damaging X instead because X doesn't learn anything from fyp. its the same as getting a cert but not learning anything. but anyway i already made my stand and did not object further to the average.

today the team met in sch to sign the papers. it was a difficult decision to make and X was clearly pissed off with all of us. supervisor had asked about X's contribution to the team and wad X deserves. X said that X deserves at least 95% cuz X put in the 'best' effort and kept revamping the website when we asked X to change it cuz it was not up to standard (the revamping = keep changing the template that is provided in free web space). X said that we did not guide or tell him properly wad was expected and required. Instead we just redid the things X did not do properly and did not help. Leader explained that the team derived at 72%. X wanted at least 95% then leader compromised abit and said to give X 80%. X was still not happy of course but when the rest of the team were required to poll the rest all gave 80% and above. I had given the lowest 75%. the supervisor had initially said to give X 80% and above if we did not want to fail him. I thought it was pointless anyway, I had let my whole team including the supervisor know that I want to fail him in other words. I could not be bothered to listen to the excuses given or talk any sense to X instead i had let X argue with leader and Y about their personal issues. supervisor then said it was communication problem and not anybody's fault. fine, but X should have taken the initiative to communicate with us in the first place like the rest of the team did. in addition to not answering our emails and not asking us any questions about anything then blaming on us is really convenient on X part.

After we signed the papers, X immediate just went off angrily. at that moment i thought to myself that X was hopeless because X still thinks X deservies more than 80% which was already v.generous because the rest of the team treat X as a friend and wanting to help X? which is not really my perspective on helping people -.-. After that Y went took the train with me. Then Y told me leader was to be blamed because leader should have scolded Y properly. I was dissappointed with Y.. I treated Y as my friend but i explained to Y that leader is not to be blamed. it is not the leader fault because i know leader had already tried to warn X on several occassions. sigh..

This is how ugly things finally became and a fruitless + pointless attempt to mark X down in my opinion. me being pulled into all this, in addition, getting potrayed as the bad person and being hated by X. I dun care if im being hated by X because I nvr treated X as part of the team or even as a friend and I could easily delete the contact. but this is like so lame lah.
