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

October 10, 2007 - Minutes and Seconds

Interesting one this week, folks.

A motion was made by Rich Pavis to impeach Jon Adler from the office of President.  This motion was (heavily) seconded, then voted on.  Adler was impeached, and Pavis, as Treasurer and highest-ranked SFS Officer, took emergency power (as provided by Article XIII) and instated his own gestapo force (which included former Vice President Monica Kolb).  Pavis then used his emergency powers to call a vote for President, nominated Jon Adler (which was seconded) and then voted on.  Adler was re-elected President and Pavis dissolved the Gestapo Government.

Then a serious motion for impeachment was brought forth, and was seconded.  Nyren Shaylokar has moved to impeach Jon Adler, and as thus, a vote will occur on Tuesday, October 23, at 6:00pm (PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE IN TIME) before the Vice Presidential election.  See the email "Please Read - Regarding the Voting Meeting" for further details.

Jonny didn't grace us with his shiny, beautiful mug via vlog this week.  He says it's cause he forgot, I think Philadelphia is pulling strings.  BUT ALAS.

Thursday Gaming will commence tonight in the Campus Center.  IT'S THE END OF TERM, WHOO.  Enjoy yo'selves.

Tonight at 11pm, Sam wants to cart you all over to Rising Phoenix Games for a midnight release draft of Lorwyn.  It's $12 with student ID.

On Sunday, Sam wants to cart you all over to Rising Phoenix Games for a non-midnight release draft of Lorwyn.  $10 a draft, it's running all day, and you can re-draft if you lose for another $10.  Email Sam at shl@wpi.edu if you want in.  If you win a draft, you can either enter the next draft for free or take three draft packs.

Wednesday Sci Fi is awesome, and so is Wixon.  Gattaca was slated for tonight, but got benched until more people can show up.  Last night he instead showed Existens.

Krissy wants you all to go to Anime Boston '08.  It should be around March 23, email kdavenport@wpi.edu for more details.

Wixon would like to let you know about Intercon H ("Heaven & Hell").  It's during the first weekend of Spring Break, where there will be 31 LARPs (including one about sassy pirate wenches and vikings.  Sorry folks, my retention made it about as far as "sassy pirate wenches" and my brain packed up and got to Intercon early)  It's in Chelmsford (there is a possibility I will be able to score people free lodging in Lowell), and it's first come, first serve.  Go to interactiveliterature.org for more.

TMA is running from October 26-28
Soylent Green is going to be shown October 27
Costume! Dance! Party! 2.0 is going to be on October 30 (emceed by yours truly).  Get a costume!  Also, give tabs to Tab Guy!

Please vote in the upcoming SGA elections.  It's important.  Also, Ferro is a cool guy.

Also, the poll on MyWPI is in regards to keeping the Campus Center open 24 hours on weekends.  VOTE.

The punt count hit a serious low this term at 8.  Come on, people.  Seriously.

Your buddy, and mine,
