That's right, BYUSA is doing it's great activity (albeit, with an awful name) where all the clubs get together and recruit, recruit, and recruit! We have several natural advantages over other clubs: awesome club name, insanely fun activities, strange unique and lively club members, and a sign that is the envy of all other clubs! It practically sells itself... but it doesn't QUITE sell itself. It only kind of does. We still need you, the Quarkie to man the booth. We need you to sign up! If you are someone who has really enjoyed the club and found it to be a blessing in your life step right up and get ready to tell others why you've enjoyed the experience and why they weill too.

Each booth can hold up to 4 people. Because this is a short event (2 hours on September 8th and 9th) I'd like to not double up on shifts. Work an hour and time to bring in the relief. The goal would be to have a club officer, a Quarkie that has worked a booth before (veterans), a Quarkie who has come to activities before but has never worked a booth before (newbies) each hour. The fourth person can be a wild card because that gives us flexibility and it sounds edgy. That way we get a good bit of leadership out there and training the next generation on how it's done. If you show up for the 11pm shifts, show up 10 minutes early to help set up. If you show up for the noon shifts, be prepared to stay 10 minutes to help clean up. Without further adieu, the schedule:

Only two slots left! Be sure to PM SPLICE to sign up!

That's right, it's coming upon us. We can't get an official location yet (can't schedule rooms until September 14th) but here are the details we DO know:

When: Friday, September 17th, 2010. Probably from 7-10pm.

Where: Most likely our usual spot in the basement of the JFSB but subject to change

What: Bring food to share to enter a prize raffle! There will be MarioKart, drawing on the whiteboard, board games, card games, and... well balloons will be involved but I don't want to go into too much detail just yet. That will be a surprise!

Who: YOU!

Stay tuned for more details!

Good day Quarkies new and old!

Narvinyevana and I were not available during Summer, but we're back with a new plan for Game Night. Festivities will now commence each Tuesday at 6 P.M. on the 3rd floor Terrace in the Wilkinson Center. Show up any time you like for as long as you like, and bring your favorite games. We have M:tG, WoW TCG, and the usual assortment of fabulous Board Games. I will post a thread in the board game forum with more details, including a link to my updated game collection.

In addition to the above information, I am embarking on a great experiment to help make the RPG forum easier to use. I have created a thread here to help groups and players find each other. PM me with your information and I will make a helpful list of those who are actively seeking groups and groups actively seeking players. Bear in mind that this is an experiment, but I'll try to make it work.

In anticipation of the upcoming semester, we have a need of pictures! Lots of them! What kind of pictures? QUARK PICTURES!

So what we need are pictures you may have taken at various club activities. The pics could be as something as simple as preparing for a recruitment booth, having fun at board game night, partying at an art meeting, discussing a book, reading each other's stories, or your beloved President pontificating in front of everyone at a social. But we'd really like these images to be sent to us. Here is how we need you to do this:

1) Send all pics to quarkpics@gmail.com

2) Make sure what event the pics are of IS IN THE TITLE OF THE EMAIL ALONG WITH WHO IS SENDING THEM! For example, if I had a bunch of pics from the Quark Winter Openning Social of 2009 I'd lable my email, "Winter Openning Social '09- Splice"

3) Understand you're letting us use these pictures for slide shows, collages, and other promotial stuff so we can show potential members how awesome we are. You want to help with recruitement, right?

So there you go! Start sending away!

I'm posting up my to-do list so everyone is more informed of where we're at with the site transition. Please add bugs and other requests as comments. These are not in any particular order.
