You were the project manager, how could you let the team go without a submission?
I take full responsibility for this and I do owe my deepest apologies for to both you and the group.
In all fairness, it was not stated on the discussion explicitly that our entries had to be mailed directly to you. I must however state that it is a group effort and others should - if they understood what needed to be done - have said : "We need to mail this"
As for, I didn't include Lola, in my opinion, two ideas are not enough - he contributions were very minor and she did not put much effort in at all.
Lastly, again about mailing our contribution, if I had known which I should have realised, I would have sent it in but please do not disregard our efforts for this very basic mistake, it won;t happen again and I can assure you, I have learnt from it.
