## Events
### Inhouses / Games Nights
#### Week 3
##### Tuesday - Among Us at 6pm w/ Mikey & James
* Turnout: 12~14 people for about 3 hours
* Notes: 
    * Event ran well, considering swapping to a version of the mod that would only require the host to have their game modded

##### Wednesday - Overwatch Stadium at 7pm w/ Jasmine & James
* Turnout: 10~12 people for about 2.5 hours
* Notes: 
    * After some struggle getting the initial group of people the games ran constantly. 
    * Had some balancing shenanigans but had them mostly ironed out by the end of the night.

#### Week 4
##### Monday - Valorant at 7pm w/ Kimi
* Turnout: 10-12
* Notes:
    * There were just a couple people waiting and swapping out between games
    * Got around 4 games in 
    * Alex asks if people sweat, Kimi says there are some higher ranks so they kinda just 'sweat' but just cause of their rank but it still balances ok

##### Tuesday - Among Us at 6pm w/ Mikey & James
* tonight!

##### Wednesday - League of Legends at 8pm w/ Anthony

#### Future Games Night Suggestions: Siege X/Fortnite/BTD6/Minecraft/Among Us/Rocket League/TFT/CS2/Halo/Helldivers/Civ6/Dress to Impress/Pokemon Tournament or Ranbat or Pocket/Gmod/Mage Arena
Current Plan(s): Minecraft (likely on Saturdays)
* Mage Arena incoming (probably)

#### Games Night Application Form
* Jasmine did this, no one else as looked at it yet
    * Alex says will talk about it next meeting, everyone read it then

> Everyone: review Draft Games Night Application Form

#### Annual General Meeting (AGM)
* Alex says we usually do it early October/week 10 so will likely be the same
* Will likely be in the Guild Council Room 
* Alex says we should start advertising it a bit earlier, maybe in early september to allow about a month
* Adam asks about allowing last minute nominations, Alex says to allow them as we often get good quality last minite nominations
    * Anthony says we could book more time to allow for this 
* Alex suggests maybe getting people to submit a short statement (like max a paragraph) with everyone and put it on a google doc for everyone to read beforehand 
    * but can likely put this all at the back of our mind for now
* Alex also notes our voting system is complicated to count (especially for OCMs)
    * Jasmine suggests using an excel spreadsheet template
    * Anthony suggests a form
    * Alex says those are good ideas, but if there is a problem with the formula/form it would be hard to notice and then hard to figure out/fix
    * Jasmine suggests trying manual and automatic this time to iron out problems, everyone says but we want to get away from manual if possible this time
    * Alex says there is also another way to count but is very complicated


#### Quiz Night Semester 2 
Editors: Alex, Jimmy, Adam, Geoff (lead), Julian
* This Thursday!
* Questions looking good, just need to finalise a few questions, editors will finish this with a meeting after this
* Slides are in progress
* Pizza is going to be ordered, Alex asks if someone can be incharge of that
    * Kimi, Anthony, Jasmine say they can
    * Anthony and Kimi will do it
* There is be a Pizza order form so orders should be a lot easier this time
* We are close to or at 100 for attendees
* Geoff says we may need to revise the pizza budget
    * Alex says just don't worry about the budget just get as much pizza we need and maybe order ~5 extra pizza's
* Alex asks if we should encourage people to bring their own food, says we will be for those who have dietry requirements that we can't fullfill 
    * For example, if someone needs Halal or Kosher then Dominos doesn't do that (can't ensure no cross contamination)
    * Jasmine says we need to note for people to also not bring food that others may be very allergic too
        * Alex says we can maybe just say no nuts as it's hard to accomodate for all allergies but bad nut allergies are decently common

| Motion: Budget to buy 2 pizzas for tables and an additional 8 | 
--

Seconded by: Geoff
Outcome: passes unanimously

* Alex asks if Julian can be in charge of drink purchases
    * He says sure and will go to Costco

        * Will need 3 bags of ice (one per Eski)
            * Anthony says he can get the ice 
            * People suggests putting it in the Eski's first, not sure if that would be easier or not 
            * Alex says a trolley could be helpful, like a foldable beach trolley from Kmart could be just good for future use as well
                * It's available for $59 at Whitfords Kmart, Jasmine can get it
                * Geoff says he's used them at job sites before and it is great so supports it

    * We will need to move money out of the netsuite into the westpac, which we can do so that's ok

        * Anthony asks if there is a precident for this?
