Committee Business

  • Amelia has asked:
    • UNIGAMES LARP TAKEOVER
      • in an unofficial capacity Amelia is offering to take a couple of kids (no more than 4) to Concord LARP trainings on Wednesday nights. Maybe Sunday too? We will see.
      • Amelia can provide clothing, transport (within reason), a briefing and a point of contact so that people aren't on their own.
      • Amelia is fine to take people to their first/second trainings, but after that people will need to organise their own transport if they are able.
      • Training will entail the new player brief for first-timers, then an IC portion. Subsequent trainings will have group battles followed by IC time.
      • Amelia wants a committee stamp of approval before going ahead with this, given that they're using the Unigames community.
      • after approval is granted, they'll talk to the Concord organisers (Skittles and possibly Lionel) to let them know what's up, and see if they want to make any flyers/business cards, etc for the clubroom. Pending committee approval of course, I'm planning to speak to Skittles at training on the 28th of June if there's anything that committee would want me to relay to him.
      • to clarify, this is operating in an unofficial capacity because this would be an EMP nightmare.
      • the goal is to lower the bar of entry into LARP and make it a bit more accessible to interested members
    • First Training that they do is July 16th
    • Committee Thoughts: Slay
    • We should very much support this, it is a big win for the LARP community
    • It is a lot of work for us to do LARP events (nightmare actually) so this is a good way to facilitate events
  • Gibbi: We will come back to deck boxes when they are ready to ship
    • Deckboxes only come like thrice a year
