Project Leadership
- 2015 – SkautQA. I created a question-and-answer website for scout leaders at qa.skauting.cz. Its creation was preceded by long dialogues and negotiations with Scouting leadership in the Czech Republic. The website is now abandoned, but the Facebook group SkautFórum could be said to be its spiritual successor.
- 2015 – List of Official Rulings. I started the project List of Official Rulings for Magic: The Gathering judges. In this project, I led a team that went through the last four years’ worth of discussion on judge forums and summarized all rulings given by high-level judges in a single page.
- 2014 – French MLP Wikia. I launched the French version of Wikia for My Little Pony at fr.mlp.wikia.com. Together with Drake, we managed to put a lot of content on the web, most notably French lyrics for all songs of the series. I no longer edit the website actively, but other editors keep adding new content.
- 2009 – Unofficial Four Elements Contest. When it turned out that the server GameDev.net will not host the Four Elements contest for the seventh time, I decided to make it my self. The Four Element contest is a 6-month programming competition where programmers must develop a full game that contains four specified features/elements. Five competitors submitted a complete game. There was an elaborate voting system where community submitted a lot of feedback to the five games. The GameDev.net server was updated several times since 2009 and the old threads are no longer accessible, unfortunately.
