An Idea

It seems apparent that even at Day two we're having a few issues. We have ten programmers all working on the same solution. We are using Tortoise SVN as a sort of repository system where everyone can upload their progress and download the progress of everyone else.

This works in theory. The problem arises when someone uploads a section of code that doesn't work and consequently everyone else receives the error. Tortoise SVN has a nice feature that allows you to see who uploaded a section of code, it even has the helpful title of the Blame button. This is all well an good, but I don't think it's good enough.

My solution is to implement some form of headpiece that has "Blame" written in big letters across it. The system works quite easily: whoever uploads an incomplete or buggy section of code is forced to wear the Blame Hat. The Blame Hat can only be removed when someone else uploads an error.
