GEAS, Return of the Info-Dump (Start of Semester Edition)

Greetings Grand Adventurers,

We hope you all enjoyed your summer break and are ready for a new year of roleplaying! It’s already September and the new academic year is almost upon us, so my incessant mails will soon resume as we once again tackle our sub-optimal room bookings. But first, some information about our start of year activities.

As has been previously mentioned we will have out Fresher’s Week Introductory One-Shots on Saturday the 16th of September from 18:30-23:00 in the Highland Room, Pleasance, I’m sure everyone on the mailing list knows exactly what to expect from this event. We still need some GMs for this event, so we are on the safe side. As long as you show up it’s great, but we would appreciate you telling us that you intend to GM if you haven’t already.

There will also be a Pub Social on Friday the 22nd of September from 18:30 onward at The Southsider Pub, where we can meet again and talk after a long summer break. Take care not to scare the freshers until we can properly convert them to our ways.

Right, now Re-Pitches, despite what I said above about our rooms, the Sunday room bookings are looking quite good for this semester, it’s just Wednesday that is, as always, basically impossible to find rooms for.

  • Sunday Afternoon games will start on the 24th of September and run from 12:30-17:00 in the Teviot Study.
  • Sunday Evening games will similarly start on the 24th of September, and run from 18:30-23:00 in the Teviot Study.
  • Wednesday Evening games will start on the 20th of September, and run from 18:30-23:00, God knows where I’m still looking for a room, but let’s say the Teviot Lounge for now…

The times and places will stay the same for Sunday Evening and Afternoon games, unless otherwise specified in a future Newsletter. As for Wednesday, I’m in the process of talking something out and will have o get back to you when I have some actual answers.

Finally, the dates for next year’s National Student Roleplaying and Wargaming Competition, henceforth referred to as Student Nationals, are here! (April 6-8th, 2018) If you are interested in roleplaying with the best of the best, this is the event for you. More information to follow, but if you are interested in coming along please send our Events Coordinator Jason an email with the subject ‘Student Nationals’ at jasonebblewhite@gmail.com.

Also we’ve moved our site to a new provider and are hoping to use that for more announcements in the future, but this mail is already way too long so I’ll mention that again in the future.

For the Glory of GEAS,
Tudor Ferariu
