I like the look of that page! I think what you need are some clear identifiers
for each of the tasks, where they are at and who they are assigned too. An
example would be formatted like below.
Art Under way
art and animation for the old man (we have temp art to use)Task awaiting upload
Assigned to "blank" to place, "date": Eric: alex has temp art for the strange
man, real guy will be done using character creator. Alan: So this task is just
to put the strange man's temp art in it sounds like.
I think the things that each task would need to have are;
1) has it been assigned, if yes to whom
2) has it been started
3) status of its completion (i.e. just started, awaiting additional info, ready
for upload)
4) date expected for completion
5) once complete marked as complete by whom, when.
Then we can follow that up with the details about the task. In other words we
need information about the task not just what the task is. I would definitely
suggest some kind of legend or key at the top of the wiki stating how people
should either comment with their name & where or dated so people can tell who
said what and when.
As for how work is distributed, I think a combination of first come first serve
and pick anything marked as open or alan/eric/sid can assign a task to someone
looking for work (or just assign it if it needs done). At the time a new task
or item is created the person responsible can either choose someone to assign
it to or just throw it up there and let people find it. One nice thing about
having sort of key or legend and lots of detail is it lets us just do a quick
find on the page for "open task" or something and boom, scroll down till you
find something.
just my thoughts.

i made up this page to try and handle the problem of people not knowin what to
work on next:
http://pyotek.com/projects/wiki/doku.php?id=currentmilestone
but it might not be the best system in place (we are figuring out our org stuff
a lil better right now i know...)
what do you guys think, how should someone get new tasks
Should we keep a prioritized list somewhere (like on the wiki) of whats needed
and people can grab what they want?
Or should we dish it out (ie eric gives out art stuff, i give out tech stuff,
or sid gives out all tasks or something else?)

yeah i agree with you, until we have a little bit more world, and are moving
forward a little better, there isn't much QA work to do :/
(unless someone else has ideas for QA stuffs that are useful nowish)

Mmm, yeah... I'll get those TPS reports to you Sid, mkay? Yeeeaaahhhh....
But seriously, what have I been doing.. I have nothing on my plate
atm, there's nothing to QA right now, so I think my role will come
into play a lil later on. I have two people in mind for testers once
the situation calls for it. I have little scribbles in a text file of
ideas for levels that I do randomly, the last I have done of that was
about a month ago when I thought of a puzzle idea. Apart from that I
am just hanging in there with you guys.
