Just to add a bit of non-network flavour, I may add that two finalists (Online and Interactive for 6 Beers of Separation) are joint entries of BMF with Holler.
(Mumbrella adds: In fact, Tim now tells us he was slightly mistaken about that and the only joint shortlisting was in the interactive category)

Tim, i was of the opinion that BMF were the agency responsible for the Six Beers of Separation & Five Seeds creative IP. Please do share with everyone what it was that Holler added for the record?

Anonymous, you can give me your email and I’ll be happy to share with you in detail what I and Simon Langley from BMF have agreed to. Otherwise feel free to read my blog post on it http://between0and1.org/2009/1.....es-6-beers

Tim, I don’t think the post at 6:06 was asking what you and Simon Langley agreed on.
It was asking what part of those ideas mentioned were Holler’s, or did Holler just execute BMF’s idea.

BMF and Holler are in total agreement about the shared credit for the work, how strategy, ideas and execution were coming out of one collaboration. So I don’t want to get into each and every facet and start separating again. That would be a step back.
People who have executed similar campaigns will probably agree that it does take some time to establish the necessary trust to hand work in together.
I am sure you and 6:06 are the same person so why don’t you make yourself known?
