Vice President's Report
- Apologies, I'm at work :I
- This year I have made most of my work towards the club organising the buying and building of new furniture for the room!
- I helped organise camp, and did the truly laudable effort of showing up on an insane amount of painkillers so we didn't have to change any of the paperwork when I got appendicitis on the week of.
- I sponsored and babysat the Westmarche as it was built from the ground up, and I'm insanely proud of everyone involved in creating it you've all done a brilliant job!
- Thank you for having me!

Secretary's Report
- I've been secretary
- the newsletter is a thing which didn't start at the beginning of the year but I've got it down packed for semester 2
- I updated the website right at the beginning of the year
- not been running a lot of events, apart from quiz night (which was literally last night). There were a few shenanigans leading up, but it was good fun all in all
Librarian's Report
- hello everyone
- Since I’ve become librarian I’ve done things not including the usual lifting of heavy objects and doing food runs
- I’ve sorted out the first book buy of the year
- I’ve created the board game classification system to be used for tagging things in the library; I’ll be starting that next week with the RPG classification system currently in the works :slight_smile:
- I run 3(three) fresher campaigns for the club, one of which is Westmarche, which I help plan from the ground up and manage
- And even though I’m basically an OCM with no privileges and added responsibilities, I’m doing a lot of things all the time which is [bad], I guess (mood negatively correlated with number of assignments due)
Fresher Rep's Report
- Greetings was fresher rep.
- Organised fresher campaigns at beginning of year and at the beginning of second semester.
- Organised Westmarche and chaired meetings for Westmarche.
- Did paint buy and ran painting days throughout the semester.
- As well as minor events.
- Also did Refresher Rewelcome
OCM's Reports
- Amber // initiative: 11 on d20
- Hello Friends!
- This has been a year (factual)
- I'm pretty sure I've gotten through this year with minimal mistakes (so long as you don't look at Quiz Night) [Sorry Jackie]
- Been averaging 2 appointments a week for the entire semester which has been fun.
- Despite this I did the last organised weekly event which is weird.
- Got the keys that let me move out today!
- Chris // initiative: 6 on d10
- It sure has been a year, hasn’t it?
- *half a year
- From rpg one-shot nights to board game nights, from charity vigil to camp, there sure has been a lot going on this year.
- This year I’ve organized a few one-shot nights for the club, and I’d like to thank all the GMs that have helped by running games on those nights, as we literally would not be able to have a one-shot night without them and all of them have done amazing jobs.
- I am also organizing the Unigains Relay for Life team, so If you haven’t signed up yet, sign up!
- It sure has been a year, hasn’t it?
- Nina // initiative: N/A
- Started off strong, assigned to the first board game night – Spies and Secrets – which went really well! Lots of engagement and fun!
- I’m the one responsible for the sexy wooden alarm clock that always goes off at 7pm, you’re all welcome.
- Next up was Nature Night! This board game sesh also went well, though there were less people and I did have to leave early (shoutout to Amber for being awesome and picking up the slack)
- I attended PROSH and ran a Monster of the Week oneshot ft. banshees, faery rings and Toxic by Britney Spears! All my players were amazing and hold a special place in my heart
- Ran the post-semester 1 board games – it was v chill.
- Spent the next while trying to help get the UWASCA collab off the ground, but due to unforeseen circumstances outside of anyone’s control it had to be shelved, hopefully temporarily. I’m really excited to give it another shot though when people are feeling able to devote time and energy to it.
- I ran LARP with Amber at camp – it was super fun and no one injured themselves except for Alistair but he wasn’t officially a part of larp so that’s on him – he also insisted on treating himself so my first aid skills went unneeded for the whole of camp, which I guess is good.
- Gearing up for Cam-Hall-o’ween.
- All in all I’ve had so much fun being an OCM, even though some things didn’t pan out like I wanted, and its been difficult juggling at times, I hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the year!!
- Texas // initiative: N/A
- ran some boardgame events and half a wargaming one. Designed posters for more
- used big truck for ikea run and cabinet run and several food runs
- built and moved some furniture
- will be doing roleplay for life and am on the joint camp sub committee
- learning trez things from jackie
- hi friends hope yall are doing well and gl with your studies
- Amber // initiative: 11 on d20
