Month: January 2020

Hello everyone!

This is to let you all know that our booking for Wednesday has been altered slightly. The pitches will be starting at 6:30 on the dot, and from 6:30-7pm Geek Retreat will be closed for us so that we can have pitches without interruption. Therefore if you are wanting to be at the pitches you will need to arrive before 6:30.

Also, Geek Retreat does sell food and drink and you will be expected to not bring in outside food or drink (especially alcohol because of licensing issues) unless you have dietary requirements that are not met by the food and drink at Geek Retreat. We would also like it if you support the business that has been kind enough to give us this space, as if there are no issues we may be able to have far more regular room bookings with them than we do with EUSA.

Finally, just a small reminder for those unsure, Geek Retreat is located at 30 Nicholson Square

Thank you all in advance, and I am looking forward to seeing you at pitches tomorrow!

For the glory of GEAS,
Logan C. Anderson.

Hello Everyone!

This is an update to let you all know that our Wednesday Pitches will be happening at 6pm in the Geek Retreat at 30 Nicholson Square. Aside from the change of venue there will be no differences between this and our previous pitches. They will be held at 6pm, so be sure to try and get there on time!

The session as a whole will be run from 6pm to 10pm and just to clarify as I have heard some confusion over this in the past, once you have pitched your session you will generally be expected to start making characters and potentially running the game that night.

For the Glory of GEAS,
Logan C. Anderson.

Hello everyone!

Welcome to the new decade, I hope you’ve all had a wonderful holiday season. This email is primarily to let you all know about the game pitches and when they will be taking place. They will be on Wednesday the 22nd and Sunday the 26th of January, We will be in the Dining Room for the Sunday pitches, but due to the predictably poor room bookings from EUSA we unfortunately do not yet have a room booked for the Wednesday pitches. Furthermore repitches this year will be five weeks after our first pitches (26th of February and the 1st of March) breaking the semester up into two 5-week blocks for games. We will be sending out an email as soon as we can find a room for the Wednesday pitches, so please keep an eye out for that.

Also, for those interested in shaping the future of our society our AGM will be taking place on the 15th of March between the Sunday afternoon and evening games. At this AGM we will be voting in the new committee and voting on any other proposed changes to the society. This date is currently provisional, but we will be confirming it closer to the date and reminding you all at repitches.

Now, next up we have our new anti-harassment policy and complaints procedure put up on our website at the following links:
http://geas.org.uk/about/anti-harassment-policy/

Lastly, Conpulsion is fast approaching! If you would like to be involved and help make things run smoothly then please volunteer to be a blue shirt. You’ll get a free blue shirt, admission to the event, and it will be a great piece of experience to put on your CV! The link to sign up is below:

I hope to see you all at pitches, and may your games this semester be full of fun and adventure!
