Today's anime meeting

[Kriedmar]

So today, got up, did some psychology, was looking forward to watching some cartoons, especially hellsing, or possibly a movie if no-one was here. Went to the union and there were four of us sitting outside waiting, when I checked the room there weren't even chairs inside, according to my comittee member house mate there was something arranged but nothing appeared

No....i said something was planned...that isn't the same thing as arranged

Is it Reading Week or something? Is that why nothing happened?

Yeah, it's Reading Week this week and according to Leo, Per and Phil decided to cancel it cos of a lack of interest and cos they wouldn't be there although i dunno who they asked was interested cos they didn't ask me and i'm on the committee ^^;;

But anyway...nobody emailed the members to tell them it was canceled so anyone who was here this week and turned up to check out some anime found, as Kreidmar said, an empty and dark room :-/

Luckily for me, however, i was quite happy to then go on and buy myself some alcohol to make up for it so i wasn't too bothered ^_-

It's usually been traditional for Project Anime not to show anything during Reading Week. I found that out the hard way in 2000, when I was a 1st year PG and just a society member.
In the two years that I was Da Prez (2001-2003), we didn't show anything during Reading Week.
Are there problems within the committee???

I was not inconvenienced as I wasn't able to show up anyway, but it would have been nice to tell people the original plan such as it was had been cancelled.

Hopefully we'll get reminders going very soon, and this will cease to be a problem.

I hope my post didn't make it sound like i was annoyed that i wasn't informed or anything - like i said, i wasn't too bothered since i was with my housemate and we went for a drink instead - although would be quite a long way into town from Fife Park to go to a meeting that doesn't happen if i didn't have anything else i could do in town that night ^_-

They did have problems with the email account for a bit back there but now that's sorted and everyone has access to it, hopefully someone'll be able to email members about what's going on and stuff and no one'll be left standing outside an empty room again ^_^
