you have to make mistakes in order to learn...

(If you have done any stupid mistakes you'd wish to share so others can watch you learn... here is the place and I'll start...

I worked with new Indies... =D
They wanted me to do some art and I told them that their concept of the assets and format won't work and wasn't clear... my mistake: I did it anyway ... project failed (not Because of artwork issues but because there was no detailed nor rudementary tests done on the coding front either... so the whole (undefined) plan didn't work out... this happend three times to me, twice in two very big company too, so I think this might be a issue for others too...

Solved by: Communication and escalading projects that you fear something is going wrong... stop working on it, hunt down the source issue asap and work on that first, don't work in the dark too long! If you feel something is going wrong, talk about it, make sure that others are aware, if nothing changes and the issue remains stop working untill someone asks, if noone cares then work on something else!
