Games

If you’d like me to email out your game, or to pop them on the website email us with a brief synopsis and at what time your game is running.

Refresher’s Fair

We have the Refresher’s fairy on Tuesday 19th (9-5, Pleasance). If you are available to help (even for a short while) please can you email us (geas.committee@googlemail.com). We’re super short of help because Tuesday’s a busy day for many students, so your help will be greatly appreciated.

LaserQuest

Finally, I’m putting out some feelers to see who would be interested in a laserquest war against Sciffy (the sci-fi and fantasy society). I’m just looking (at this point) to see if it’s worth organising, so if you are interested comment here or send us an email.

Hope to see you soon,

Sam (GEAS President)

The ‘Library‘ link will now lead you to a place where you can download our library catalogue. Yay, I fixed it!

Thanks to everyone who came yesterday, and an extra special thanks to Sam for organising it all. Everyone had a great time, I think, and it was cool to see so many new faces. Don’t forget, we’ve got games running on Sunday at Teviot, with the first session running from 1-5 and the second from 6-10. Come along and give something a try!

Fresher’s Week begins on Monday 14th September, and we have a few events going on for anyone who is interested:

On Wednesday 16th there is a social event at the Meadows Bar, beginning at 7:30. Activities will include ‘light hearted frivolity’, various games, biscuit making, and most likely drinking.

On Sunday 20th there will be the usual ‘Introduction to Roleplaying’ taking place at Teviot. There will be two sessions, one from 1-5 and the other from 6-10.

We’re also running a stall at the Fresher’s Fair, which takes place on Wednesday and Thurdsday.

Conpulsion 2010 will be on the 26th – 28th of March, at the teviout union.

As promised, we finally have a new GEAS website up.

GEAS (Grand Edinburgh Adventurers Society) is Edinburgh Universities roleplaying society.

We are on summer break at the moment, but more details will be forthcoming before next term.
