            * Anthony says he thinks we may want to just concentrate into just 2 teams rather than spreading ourselves too thin

### Wall Panels
* Anthony put in another maintance order for data and power points 
    * They say it would be at our own cost but Guild is going around doing upgrades so will check if we are apart of that at all
    * Alex says they likely will not as there are plans to knock things down for renovations 'soon'

### Other Items
#### TVs wall mounting
* no updates, no Geoff

#### Zeller Terminal
* apparently arriving today, no Geoff
    * maybe delayed ?

#### Esports Wifi
* no updates, waiting for access point

#### Door Sensor Upgrade
* no updates

#### Misc
* Carr Mern donated more fake plants for the clubroom

#### Feedback
* Eve suggested somethings on our Discord
    * Suggestions about table:
        * Alex says there is an effort to get a table top from bunnings
        * Anthony says can Ikea, Alex says 
        * Keep in mind may be moving out so may not be 
    * Other suggestion about TV and Switch 2, will be discussed


#### Switch 2 & TV
* James says would cost $770 with Mario Kart world ($70 extra)
* Alex says he is in favour of a switch 2 as it's not a major investment and our Switch is the most used thing in the clubroom by far
    * The switch 2 will also run at a higher frame rate at more than 4 players which happens frequently in the clubroom
* Anthony is against for it, saying it is not worth the cost
* Kimi says she thinks a better TV is a better investment instead
* People note that the Switch 1 gets the most amount of use in the clubroom but it can't handle it as well, getting a switch 2 would be good advdertising for the clubroom as it's very expensive for individuals, will be good for event usuage, and will likely get some of the cost back on grants
* Jimmy says it is good to get but thinks it isn't worth for the cost
    * James says he disagrees
    * Alex says our PCs have $700 graphic cards so way more money per computer and the switch is used much more 
    * Alex also notes the club money is to benefit our members
    * Jasmine notes we are not for profit and in their opinion we should be running at cost with only a bit saved for a rainy day
* Jimmy says if we do get it we should we do an announcement 
    * Julian says we should announce it at Quiz Night that it's happening (if approved)
* People are reminded how much money we have
* Jimmy and Kimi say they are only against it if we don't get a new TV
* Alex asks if prioritise new TV or Switvh 2
    * Julian says for our general use case our current TV is fine for purpose so would say switch 2 prioritise
    * Consensus is we want both but is more a question of when for both
    * Anthony mentions new TV can have a Esports game running or chrome cast or music or similar
* Alex says we can talk about this more next meeting with Geoff to motion then
* Adam asks about discounts
    * James says Ari sent a list of tips for getting a possible discount and can help with Staff amount
    * Jimmy mentions may be at Costco as well
* Current TV is 40inch
    * James says we can likely consider upgrading to a 50inch but maybe not 60inch but that's just him
    * We also have TVs in the loft rn and no one has complains so can do that again with the current one
