Clay -- Been thinking about this today, and I think I have found a way for you to get an answer to your question. You go to a game that one of these guys is doing. You watch, you try to see what they are doing right. Then you talk to your assignor about it, using these exact words: "What do I need to do to be as great as they are?" This will get at the thing you want to discover -- not why the heck they get the good games, but what you can do to get to their level. Of course, when the assignor answers, you listen carefully, take notes, nod your head, and don't argue. Then go work your butt off, doing what you were told. You'll have gotten the attention of your assignor, and then all you have to do is earn his respect.
