Quiz Night [Probably Friday 20/8 or 27/8]:

  • We're just waiting on the tav for a response

UWASCA collab:

  • Meeting happened yesterday
    • Dates: late July/early August
    • Location: EZone (wheelchair accessible)
    • Leather book binding will be the event
      • UWASCA has a bunch of leather already
      • UWASCA will need to buy a bunch of leather working supplies
        • UWASCA can buy these and then keep them afterwards
        • Consumables (e.g. needles + thread) might need to be separate in purchasing and shared among the clubs
          • Having a communal pile after of consumables won't be used by anyone but UWASCA
          • Instead consumables should be covered in the ticket price
        • Or, everything is bought and shared between the clubs
          • But we don't really need leather tools
      • Conversations need to be had about how profitable the event should be and how much share UWASCA wants
        • Alistair suggestion: UWASCA should get reimbursed for what is used for the event, and have the benefit of keeping what's leftover
    • Questions are raised about whether the event truly is a collab or just a UWASCA event that we're invited to
      • Leather book binding is not inherently Unigames related, but will still interest people
      • Something more align with Unigames in future would be nice for a collab event

Roleplay for Life [Probably Sat 18/9 - Sun 19/9]

  • Emerald and Texas will run it
