Usual Suspects

Board Games

  • Event happened last night

  • 7 Wonders is still a hit
  • Attendance should perk up when we get to in person things
  • TTST has disappeared somewhere along the way but we should restart that
  • Reopening board game event on Sunday 26th

RPGs

Magic

  • Having an in person EDH event would be nice

Wargames

  • New box can be bought on Saturday
  • 2 people around one large table is pretty good
  • We can do matchmaking through the club to space games out
    • Would need to wait until we have an amount of gatekeepers again

Fresher Campaigns

  • Give games the option to play in the room
    • Would require scheduling to make sure its safe
  • We can open up applications again for new games now that in person games are possible

Alice: Get fresher game signups ready

Events:

Halloween 2019:

  • No update
  • If this manages to get to 1 year later we'll be very sad
  • Once we're back in the building it'll be easier to harass people

Club Carnival:

  • Will be on Tuesday August 4th
  • We need to check on our advertising material to see if we need any more
  • Set up is going to be the same as last year on James Oval

Relay / Roleplay 4 Life:

  • Running Relay for Life is pretty easy
    • Autumn is happy with being the captian this year
    • Alistair is also okay with doing it
    • Having a captain who will be there the whole time is always nice
  • Roleplay 4 Life
    • Autumn and Alice want to be involved with this
    • Taylor is happy to be an advisor
    • Really all you need to know is who to get as a GM and get Alaura/Gozz/Donald to do the streaming
    • We should discuss how we want to format the event in another meeting

Quiz Night:

  • Meeting on Friday
  • Need to decide on a date
  • Could move this to near Halloween as a party then might not happen
    • Suggest this to the subcommittee

Halloween 2020:

  • Big event with alcohol and dancing that might not be able to go ahead
  • We have a lot of projects at the moment as well

    • Guidelines are the standard Government ones
  • Room should be cleaned before we let people back in
    • We can delay opening the room to the public until committee have a chance to get things ready
    • Committee cleaning spread through next week
      • Whoever gets in first can make a list of jobs to do
      • If there's still a lot to do after Wednesday we can do a cleaning day
      • We should also clean the loft a bit
    • Official reopening the week after next with an event
      • Also the first week of uni
      • Sunday 26th big board games
  • Reopening the room
    • Event modifications should be made
      • Board games are the hardest due to touching the same game pieces as everyone else
      • Sanitising procedures can be implemented
      • We definitely need to be booking and using the Loft
      • Private games being held elsewhere is probably better as we can't guarantee space
    • There's space for 8 people in the room
      • 6 spots at the table, 2 on the couch
      • 9th person can stop in without sitting to purchase things
    • We should supply hand sanitiser for use before entering the room or direct people to the sink upstairs
      • Also before and after handling games and/or books
      • Gatekeepers should have the power to make people go sanitise >Emerald: Writeup a set of rules for handling of resources and money
    • Mask wearing is not required but we can mandate it
      • Would we have to provide masks if we want to do that though?
      • We should recommend it but not enforce
      • Mostly for drawing attention to how often people touch their faces
    • Standard "If you're sick don't come here"
    • Shame tally on the whiteboard for how many times people touch their face?
    • Dice, minis and pencils
      • We can shift these over to the shelves so people don't use them to fidget
      • Needs to be requested from the gatekeeper
      • We can separate polyhedral sets into ziploc bags so there's less contact with the mass
      • Recommend BYO or dice apps
      • Minis should be exiled because they're too hard to clean
        • You do not need minis, it's okay
  • Shopping list for reopening essentials:
    • Two large bottles of hand sanitiser
      • One for the door and one for inside
    • Anti bacterial wipes
    • Sanitiser spray for the table
    • Restock on papertowels and tissues
    • Hand soap in case upstairs runs out
    • Ziplock bags
    • Small trashcan for the antibac wipes
      • Empty box of coke cans?
    • We should ask SOC/Tenancy if we can get some of this on them, otherwise we'll just cop it
