centaursTesticle tells us more.
Hey everyone, this is my FML! #15 got it closest... I've been working on this project for about 3 weeks with my group members, and I have definitely done my fair share of the work in that time. All of us met up the night before it was due to type it all up, put it together and double check everything, but I had to leave that meeting much earlier than everyone else. Hence, they forgot to put my name on it :/ Thanks, guys.... I contacted my professor as soon as I saw the grade, and my group backed me up and admitted that they made a mistake. I was SUPER scared and pissed off but it got resolved! We got an A-! :D

That really sucks. But I'm gonna have to say YDI. You should have made sure to put your name on the project and not expect someone to do it for you. Especially if the grade was really worth that much. Hopefully things got sorted out.
That's like getting mad at someone for stealing your car when you left it unlocked with the doors open and a flashing neon sign reading "free car".
Refer to comment #18. Read the follow up.
At least that sounds easily fixed, once the teacher knows it was also your project.
Happened to me before, except I remembered to put my name on it, but my group removed me. Luckily I noticed what they did and fixed it before it got sent in.
hey don't worry my partner didn't help me and we got less that an f
lol glad you got it resolved also another reason im not a huge fan of group projects. it reminds me of an art project i did for english. nothing like this happened the project went great the art i did was pretty dang good if i do say so myself unfortunately my partner was the one to color everything.... i drew it all lol like i said came out great just my project was to draw the final scenes in beowulf beowulf and friend vs dragon i was one of the few that didnt do stick figures honestly didnt come to mind that i could lol the coloring made it look like i killed off petes dragon. sadly my teacher threw the pictures away without thinking if i wanted to keep them cause i missed that day. but i never put more effort in an art project for it to get messed up by a partner. he should have used red and black or somethin he used green and red -_- lol. i went into detail even added a background this project took like 3 days and i had to do 7 pictures it was lucky i finished at all.
did you tell the teacher that? it just seems like you should have been paying attention.

Why didn't you put your name on? If it was that large of a grade then I would have double and triple checked that my name was on it.
Maybe you should have put your name on it? Sounds like you left important details for the rest of the group to complete. Group works about all working together
