Remeber, every SUNDAY!


When you ask a question, please wait for an answer. When you see someone else ask a question, please also wait for it to be answered.

We want to answer any and all questions that you have, but we are only human and can only answer one question at a time. Sometimes it might take us a moment to think of an answer that is clear, and sometimes it might require us to type up a lengthy response. I understand that you may not want to read what looks like a block of text from us, but when you ask the question then it is simple courtesy to accept the answer in whatever form it takes. As we are trying to make sure you get all the information you need and ask for we, in turn, appreciate your patience.


When your Hosts make a request, please respect it.

This is not a power trip. We are here because we know what we are doing.
Hosts generally have valuable experience when it comes to matters of the Annual Ball, so if a Host is making a clear, specific request it would benefit everyone present for that request to be respected at the very least. That is not to say that we are totalitarian... if you want to question the request then you are more than welcome, but please question it rather than ignore it. Chances are that when you question it you will get a reasonable answer and justification for the request.


Try to keep on topic(The majority of the time)

There's nothing wrong with having a good time. In fact, we hope you do! One of the benefits to having these meetings is that we will all get comfortable enough with one another to have fun both in planning and during the ball. However, we do still have an agenda to follow. Let's all try our best to remember why we're there while still having a good time.


And on the same note.... Remember that there will be other meetings.

Meetings... plural... means that there will be more! That means we don't need to come to a conclusion on everything that is brought up that evening. It's far too much to ask for the amount of time that is necessary to finish the planning necessary behind many of the topics that we plan to discuss each night. So, instead of trying to fit as much planning as possible into one evening, let's keep it simple. We can still be productive enough to get ahead without rushing our plans to the point of missing the details.

Meeting:

1. January 22nd, 2012
Mostly no one showed up. Boo. But it is okay, we have next week to try again!


Attendance: (Not to make you feel bad, but to note who was absent so we can get them catched up)

  • Spottedteddybears
  • Robayn
  • BasiWolff (though we blessed his leave early)
  • LilChibiusa
  • Anonypanda

    Content:

  • We decided that since we're going to be talking medieval-like anyway, it should be a rule to talk in mostly medieval-like speak. Liketh this, simple. The likes of us are able, methinks you can achieve such.
  • Crossovers. We still need some, but we're not sure where to head. A little slow, but we will work something out, maybe after the rough draft of plot has been submitted? (Sometime in February)
  • Nothing much. It was more of a chat-party-meeting than an actual meeting. Next week for sure though.

    Next Week: A little "to-do" list for next week's meeting.

  • Question and Answer--Part II. Really short, only for the first time ball-goers. If you are familiar with the ball, you do not have to show up for the segment, maybe the first 30 minutes?
  • Overview if plot and a little polishing. We need a first-draft of the plot by February, so a little more polishing is what we need. Any last submissions and bits you want in the plot can be requested now, and we'll ponder over the idea. Keep in mind that this is the rough draft and things can change. But also keep in mind that this is the rough draft and things can still change. So what I mean is that your input can be changed or scraped as time goes on. Sometimes, the entire plot may be changed!
  • Character building and relationships. You can get quick input on your character, or work out exactly what role you'll play, and whose character you'll have relationships with, such as the Queen and the Boy King, the Prince and his sidekick, etc... But only if we have time. These meetings are about an hour long, so we may have to hold this up for next week.
  • The MAY DAY event! I didn't get to talk to you guys about the plan that Robayn and I hatched up. Many of you know about the Valentine's event, and we were planning to host our own co-ed room event. So now, we're doing a medieval holiday, May Day. Very medieval, and festive and such. We haven't worked out details, or even really planned on doing it yet. It is a floating idea waiting for your input. If we are doing this event though, all us High Adventure people have our characters already, our ball characters! But no refrence of plot will be made. We're allowing other characters to be played by other people, but we all have our characters. Still in Yes/No and Okay-ing mode.
  • A nice 15 minute brainstorm of what you would think is a nice way to keep active. Like a roleplay, or a event that is not ball related at all? Just what you think would be fun and attention worthy!

    Notes for next week: Some notes, like "have this planned" or "expect this".
  • 3 bits of input for the plot.

    Meeting Notes.


*Bolded are members of High Adventure, non-bold are guest, or those who came to lurk

No probs. What I had planned wasn't even important, and we could always do it again next week, because Robyan might miss that one as well. ^^ You are forgiven!

Now that I have everyone on friends I plan on sending reminders via PM!
That is, unless you've told me that you can't make it.

Phew!


I posted the meeting notes and meeting summary up! Feel free to check and ask questions. ^^

There really was no point in me posting it up, but I wanted to get into my full-planning control-freak mode ahead of time, so why not? I'm planning on doing this every week, after each meeting, so yeah.
