Week 2: EGM, Rocket League & Q-Con
Hello all,
I hope you're all enjoying the return to college and study, or something
like that. Take some time out to come to some of our events this week!
EGM
On Wednesday, we'll be holding an EGM to elect the following positions:
Public Relations Officer, PC Officer and Trips and Events Officer. Come
along to vote for the people you want to see elected, and maybe run for one
yourself. This will take place in XG01 at 5pm, and there'll be free pizza
followed by trad gaming as usual.
Console Gaming
Join us for some Console Gaming on Wednesday 2-5pm in XG01. This week we'll
be hosting a 1v1 Rocket League tournament. There's a €2 entry fee, and the
winner will receive a €20 GameStop voucher. Sign-ups from 2pm, with the
tournament beginning around 2:30pm. If you don't like soccer, cars, or
games with both of those things, our usual range of consoles and games will
still be there.
Trad Gaming
Trad Gaming will take place as usual 6-10pm on Monday, and Wednesday
evening following the EGM in room XG01.
Q-Con
We have already filled all the spaces for the annual trip to Q-Con during
summer, but remember that if you haven't given the €20 deposit to a
committee member by this Wednesday (7th) your place will be given to
another person.
Have a great week everybody, I'll see you all on Wednesday.

Hey guys,
As you may be aware, there's currently a Hostelworld Conference going on in
the Helix, so we don't actually have access to the basement to get our
consoles. Instead we encourage you to bring whatever handheld consoles you
have, and we'll also have trad games present from 2pm. Trad will end at
10pm as usual. Sorry about this, we'll be back to normal next week!
Thanks,
Natasha Dunbar,
GamesSoc Secretary

Hey guys,
We've already reached our limit for Q-Con sign ups, so that form is now
closed. However, in the case of drop outs or unpaid deposits, we're making
a backup list for people who want to go. Full price is still €60, including
a €20 deposit which we'll require ASAP. Similarly, if by any chance you've
signed up and and then realised you can't actually make it, let us know as
soon as you can.
Here's the form: https://goo.gl/forms/vhqrfDmC9g32Jaw53
thanks,
