[REDACTED] 2020: Ghost Camp [3/7 - 5/7]: ¶

• Friday night board games:
  • 5 attendees
  • Nothing ghosty themed, fun
• Saturday night oneshot:
  • Disappointing attendance, oneshot didnt fire
  • Restresses the importance of promoting our events
  • There has been a distinct consistent decrease in interest in online RPG events
• Sunday night quiznight:
  • Quiz night succesfully fired!
  • Taylor and Gozz orchestrated
  • Eight-ish participants
  • Kahoot had some good elements, Gozz had to sign up for a premium membership (free trial), quite a few concerns
  • Kahoot was a solo experience, which is less preferable than the team experience
  • Pretty much everyone got a low score because there weren't teams
  • It's very difficult to write a multiple choice quiz
  • Kahoot also gives you bonus points for answering quickly, which the hosts decided to reverse engineer out
• Goose LARP
  • Pretty good!
  • Emerald had an exciting adventure setting up a bot to post the prompts on the hour. And accidentally added all of committee to her secret channel. Then climbed onto a rooftop for it
  • The second half of the second day didn't fire bc everyone was sleeping
  • People enjoyed it, it was fun and harmless
    • Addendum: alistair was harmed (by a cactus) ("HIS NAME IS SAMSON he's not just a cactus")
  • Taylor and Gozz officially win
  • Thank you ghost camp mittee for organising this cool event

Quiz Night ¶

• No updates - kyle is trying to organise a meeting w/ the other clubs

Joint REDACTED [20/11-23/11] ¶

• Waiting on a sitemap, and that's all until we can submit the EMP
• Working on posters for advertising
• Budget stuff is occurring!

Relay / Roleplay 4 Life ¶

• We received an email last week confirming that relay is happening
• Have a think about if you'd like to help organise either of these events in a few months

UWASCA Collab ¶

• At this point we realise Josh's mic has been broken the whole meeting
• No updates

Josh: Organise a UWASCA collab

Room Update: ¶

• Room to tentatively open after the 18th (day after next committee meeting)
• We will likely hear whether this is confirmed in the upcoming SOC meeting

Reimbursements: ¶

• Pending:
  • Emerald: $84.73
  • Kyle: $158.67
  • Jackie: -$21
  • Autumn: -$34.79

Guild: ¶

• Special Projects Grants
  • A great deal of confusion over what is happening there
  • Do we want to ask guild to ignore our previous SPG application for tabletop simulator, and redirect our efforts into wargames? Yes
  • We will need a very specific budget for that. Wargamers will need to provide an itemised list of what we want to get, prices, and where to purchase.
  • Guild have set a 300 word cap for the applications.

Jackie: Cancel our previous SPG application

• ODay Grants

  • They've been processed and paid into our account!
  • Taylor is considering raising concerns at the SOC meeting that stalls with low signups have not been sufficiently reimbursed - this is not in Unigames' immediate financial interests but the right thing to do

• SOC Meeting on Tuesday 14/7

  • Taylor is going to go (best wishes)

• Tenancy Reallocations

  • There was a plan that Tenancy was going to recommence on this Monday just gone 6/7
  • Omar from Tenancy and Jacob from SOC have given conflicting information about whether the Monday recommencement was actually happening
  • The information that Omar gave us did not go out to all clubs
  • On Saturday, we re-sent our original appeal, including an addendum highlighting:
    • New concerns about the autonomy of clubs sharing rooms to ban people from the room.
    • Our experiences during lockdown confirming our earlier position that online events are not a viable substitute, so if our proportion of clubroom usage drops, we will only book other physical space at UWA.
  • The phrasing Guild has used has implied that the deadline to submit appeals was 1 hour after the process unfroze. Since the moment of unfreeze was hazy, that was confusing.
  • Taylor sought confirmation that our original appeal had been received, with no luck. Fired off the updated version.
  • There has also been an implication that the entirety of the tenancy committee has been suspended during quarantine.

• The State of Cameron Hall

  • During Lockdown, the building has been plenty accessible, and while clubs have been empty, plenty of randos have been using the space and leaving it in a state.
  • There are overflowing bins, empty alcohol bottles, and various other messes.
  • This affirms previous assertions that the loft needs to be on the guild cleaning contract, because it's not clubs that are causing mess there.
  • Signs have gone up inside the building telling ppl to not leave trash behind
  • There is a potential of clubs suffering ramifications and restrictions due to the misuse of the building by unrelated parties.
  • Taylor plans to raise this with Tenancy and/or the SOC meeting.

• SOC Subcommittee Applications are open.

  • If you are interested in getting involved and fighting for justice, then apply!
