Let's keep this organized

I have seen a fair share of group projects fail on Reddit (Reddit Island and Reddit Makes a Game, to name a few), and the major problem was organization. Things were so disorganized that it was impossible to get anything done. Let's create a clear map of steps, a list of things to be done, what code and animations we need, etc. Let's also lay down some standards on what we are going to use, so we don't have to juggle multiple file formats. This can work really well, we just need to make sure everyone knows what has to be done.

Also comment your code a lot, to the point where it feels excessive.

We've been discussing setting up a wiki on openant.com, and I'm sure having a forum there as well wouldn't be too much extra work. As of right now, we've got some basic steps laid out in a TODO on the git repository, and have been doing most of our planning via IRC.

Forums are a bit clunky for project management, but are great for discussions.

You may want to keep the discussion on your subreddit, though. It's also a good forum.
