WPI SFS - The WPI Science Fiction Society Defending the galaxy since 1974

September 26, 2007 - Now I Know My ABCs

After (not very much) consideration for a theme this week, I decided to go with something a bit... alphabetical.
Because these minutes are quite late, and because I'm out of ideas for the time being, and because I'm in class typing this (that's how special these minutes are to me)
Classtime is perfect for doing minutes, yeah... anyway...

Despite all odds, Mr. Adler actually made it to the meeting!  ...for about two minutes, to intro his video.

Even Christian had a video to follow, advertising The Pickup Artist.

For those interested in watching it, email Christian at croy@wpi.edu.

Gaming on Friday as usual, Magic via trip to UMass Boston on Sunday (meet at 8am -- Sam has further instructions)

Heroes on Monday at 9pm in Fuller Labs' gigantic auditoriumy room, it's huge!

If you have time after SFS meetings, Wixon is re-hosting Wednesday Night Scifi in Founders.

Jeremiah would like to run a one-shot of Everway, a diceless game.  Character creation will be tonight from 7-8pm, and the game will begin Saturday at 2pm.  Email him at jchaplin84@gmail.com

Kings and aliens love money.  Cups love money too.  The SFS has a cup in Penny Wars, and it loves pennies.  You should give pennies to it.  Yes.

Librarians are not just pieces of meat.  They also like things.  Also not being overrun after meetings.

Meetings are not the best times to steal librarians to hit the library, as it is late-ish and they may be busy.  That said, the library has hours from 4 till Gaming on Friday.

Now, if you need something from the library at a random time, find an officer and (if they aren't busy) they can get you what you need.

One "Ian Williams" would like to garner interest in Dragon Quest (seriously old-school gamery).  It takes 3-6 players.

Plus, he would also like to try getting people for Lord of the Rings: Return of the King: Strategy Board Game, technically a 2 player game (but hackable for more).  Email ianw@wpi.edu for more info.

Questions came up surrounding who is IT.  Richard Pavis is now IT.

Red Dwarf is awesome, and Eric Sutman would like to run a TUB of it.  If interested, email him at esutman@wpi.edu.

SGA Treasurer candidate Mike Ferro came to talk about his platform in the upcoming election.  If you would like to talk to him about any particular issues, his email is maferro1@wpi.edu.

Tabs are multipurpose.  They're good for lots of things.  Like rapidly inserting spaces into a word processor, or opening cans... or making chainmail.  Email confusedcros@gmail.com if you would like to donate tabs for his kickin' tabmail.

Unfortunately, due to the lateness of these minutes, the announcement about Genius' Dragonfly Game Design Team beta testing is sort of... belated.

Very different from the usual card games going on, Doug Gardiner would like to educate you on the wonder that is Yu-Gi-Oh! the card game.  Email him at gardinerd@wpi.edu if intrigued.

Well... that's about it for this week.
Xykon.
Yes, I am totally cheating on the last bits of this email.
