Though, really, it went rather well all things considered, and none of your friends or relations seem to have felt totally insulted, which would rather have been a problem.
It really was good for some of the things that got the project approved in the first place - getting students working together for a larger goal, learning skills we can't cover in class, that sort of thing. But I am most glad it's done with.
I hope we can direct their energy into some other project next year, though, honestly. I don't think I'm up for this every year. (Or, perhaps, into some historical era, rather than the recent past, so at least all sorts of people, you included, don't have to worry about who'll be portraying them.)
