- There was a meeting on Monday
- We will run screenings and a video game tournament
- ~~We now have charities to choose from, and schedules are being formed~~

## Communications and Records
- we keep getting emails from David Thatcher that he's out of office in response to our weekly emails

>Keifer: combine membership forms

### Minute distribution
- I have created a HackMD team owned by the UniSFA account
- I have transfered all my HackMD minutes to it
- It is very simple to use, I can easily train someone else to use it or make a guide
	- I will not be able to make the meeting next week, so I will do this by then
	- That said future UniSFA is in no way locked into it
- It has a function that allows all files to easily be downloaded and backed up
- I am still not entirely sure how the live viewing function works however, but this will be useful once I have it running
- It also allows notes to be catagorised, making subcommittee minutes easy to store and organise
	- Almost all the other clubs use HackMD so the formatting will be consistent regardless of who is minuting
		- Gozz would like us to get a github account at least to act with a repository for ICONs collab minutes
			- We don't like github but we'll do it

>Keifer: make HackMD minuting guide

>Keifer: make UniSFA a Github account

### Discord server structure
- Merlin posted the draft
- We accept Merlin's draft except:
	- We'll keep wrestling in media discussion
	- We won't have podcast-audio twice
	- Anthologies removed from books channel
	- we'll add a media recomendations channel
- We should get rid of Tatsu alerts for people leaving the server
- Might regig emojis and roles

>Merlin: start implementing new Discord Structure

## Treasury
- Where do we start?
- Future food runs should be funded through money being withdrawn first or if necessary strictly committee members being reimbursed
- Shopping lists will improve contents of purchases
- Our Disney Plus has expired (10 days ago)
- Autumn's not here yet, so milk pods for coffee machine are currently inadvisable unless small quantities
	- The season not the person

>Merlin, Harry: Renew Disney Plus

### Book Buy budget
- Things that we ordered from Quality but have yet to pay for ($150) is something we should buy at fresher crawl, further purchases at sponsor crawl
	- Counts towards this year's obligatory spending
- We should be slightly more frugal this year
- Chase would like us to buy around $800 worth of books this year
- $400 this sponsor crawl suggested
- We would also like to spend more on video games, but not as part of core book buy
	- buy them on sale only
- $400 budget for sponsor crawl approved unanimously

## Content Creation
### Piffle

>Chase, Lexie: dig up old piffles

### Podcasting
#### Podcasting policy
