Suggestions

I don't know if we've already got one up, but I think a topic about tutorials would be really helpful to us all. That way, beginners can have a chance to get started and hands on while the intermediate and advanced people can also practice a bit. I think a topic with links to different tutorials, like for UDK, Maya, 3ds Max, XNA, etc would benefit this group greatly.

This is the reason why we have divided up the boards for each individual aspect, and we have resource threads in each of those boards just for that purpose.

Indeed. =) We'll try to find some good tutorials for everyone. If you find any that you really like, don't hesitate to post them. The more resources, the better.

I'm not sure if this has been addressed already but I think that monthly meetings are too far apart for the club to be effective. A whole month gives people a lot of time to forget or get caught up in other things. I don't think we can justify weekly meetings but bi-monthly meetings sound do able.

I agree. We should be meet more than once a month, even if there is no official business to attend to.

You've got a good point. We're working on ways to meet up that won't exclude anyone with a busy schedule, so we'll let you know when we figure something out. And again, if either of you have any suggestions on the matter, we would be happy to take them under consideration. =D The more ideas, the better.

From people I've talked to that can't make it Mondays, it seems Tuesdays mostly work, so we'll probably start holding meetings Mon and Tues. I can't make it Tuesdays so those will be presided over by our VP, Will aka Break Man. Records Keeper Christa, thasric, can make both days, so she can provide notes and make sure anything important discussed at the Mon meeting is announced at Tues.

I was thinking of having the next meeting three weeks from the last, but I was informed that was Halloween. I figure everyone would rather get drunk and/or candy that night, so I'll probably schedule another date. I'll of course let y'all know as soon as I do.

[Edit:] On second thought. Let's do it that night and have a costume contest! I'll make a separate thread for this to keep the suggestion thread clutter free.

B-b-but that's the night I wanted to get all liquored up and chase really short skirts! Curse you and your group business!

And yes, I realize this idea ends with me getting the shit beat out of me, either by a girl with stilettos, or an angry boyfriend. Either way.

What about a Work-In-Progress, or "What you are working on now" section of the forum.

Done. ^.^ Check the Ideas forum.

Let us know if you think it needs some adjustment.
