    FYI guys the constitution states:

     

    “To plan a LAN event, these questions must be answered. The first 5 questions must be voted on. 1) When will the LAN event occur? 2) What time will it start and run until? 3) Where will it be held? 4) What game will be played? 5) Will multiple games be played? 6) How will those games be supported? 7) Who will sponsor the LAN event? 8) What will they donate to the LAN event? 9) How many banners and flyers are needed to advertise the LAN event? 10) What type of food will be served? 11) How many of that type of food will be needed? 12) How many drinks will be needed? 13) How many people will be allowed to attend?

     

    At the LAN event, the secretary must take attendance, and record the event in such ways to keep the history of the Club updated. It is also the duty of the Historian to make such visual history available and accessible to all members and alumni of the Club.”

     

    Please note that the first thing that must be voted on is the date of the lan event. Please also notice that it does not say that just because you vote on a place, which you must do as well see #3, and that place is only available on 1 date that that automatically becomes the date, IT MUST ALSO BE VOTED ON, even if it is a moot point. I let is slide on the last LAN, but when you guys start skimming the constitution, even on the little things you start losing focus.

     

    Second, the Secretary must take attendance. I would also propose at the next meeting the following amendment to this section before the part about the historian, **”It is the duty of the Treasurer to collect dues and LAN fees and to make such financial record available to the executive staff so as to ensure financial responsibility on behalf of the club.”** This would help with the flow of the LAN, and so that Nicole doesn’t get stuck doing the treasurers’ job, as I have been in the past, even if I volunteered to do it.

     

    You might also want to consider stating that executives are first and foremost working each LAN event, as is each Council Leader that has a game being played at the LAN. This might help alleviate the stress put on the select few that show up early and help as well as the even fewer that stay to help clean up after, not to mention the two or three that help during the event. I would put this after the statement about the Historian, I would word it, **”In short, it is the job of every executive staff member and council leader to run and operate each LAN event. If he or she is unable to fulfill their duties, it is their duty to find a suitable replacement and to notify the executive staff of such replacement within 72 hours of the beginning of the LAN event.”**

     

    Also note, that it takes unanimous vote among the executives and 2/3 of the active members of the club. (Which isn’t normally that hard to get.) You guys might want to actually look at the constitution, and its weird bolding issues. But other than that GOOD JOB GUYS!!
