## Events
### Inhouses / Games Nights
#### Previous
* None
#### Upcoming
##### Tuesday 14th of January, 7pm
* Game: Among Us (modded)
* Cooridinator(s): Mikey & James
#### Future Plans/Ideas
##### League Inhoues Again
* Possibly start league inhouses again, either beginning of Feb or semester
* Start of semester is likely better to ensure we have more people from our intake of new members
* We need to scout for Pro Team (this may also include Valorant as well)
##### Deadlock w/ Jimmy
Tentative Time: start of next year
* no updates
* We're unsure on the player base this would draw so will likely not run this unless someone is super keen
##### Marvel Rivals w/ Julian & James
Tentative Time: start of next year
* There seems to be demand for this
* When Julian is here for next meeting we will organise a time and date for the first games night
##### League of Legends, for below gold/plat elo
Tentative Time: Holidays/Early Sem 1
* no update
##### Trouble in Terrorist Town (TTT) w/ UCC
Tentative Time: Semester 1 2025
* This has evolved as it has been play tested
* We are now wanting to turn it into a full Gary's Mod pack
* This needs a bit more perfection time
* Will do this next semester with UCC
#### Major Tournaments
##### Joint / Own Team for QUT
* We will need to run inhouses to get interest
* We have div 1, 3/5 players from last Semester remain
* We are also looking to field a div 2 team
* We are looking to maybe field a div 3 and/or a pathfinder team as well if interest allows
##### Unisports Team
* no updates
##### ECU Tournaments
* no updates
### Other Events
#### Quiz Night Sem 1 2025
Tentative Time: Week 4 Sem 1 2025
* Had editors meeting
##### Budget for Prizes
* Last Quiz Night did document the budget for prizes very well but we're thinking ~$200
* Total revenue was around $800
* We spent $300 on Pizzas and $150 on Prizes
* We want to ensure we have a few better prizes for at least the top 3 tables
* We can keep the drink tokens and $5 for extras from last time
* Some complaints of Pizza orders being wrong likely due to human error, this needs to be planned better
* Some drinks ran out, we should maybe try to find which are popular so we can have more of those ones
### Collaborations
#### Cameron Hall Minecraft Server - SMP
* Have not had a subcom meeting
* The server is pretty dead, server will likely be taken down soon
#### Smash Perth Collaboration Tournament 2
Tentative Time: Mid-Late January 9am - 5pm
Tentative Location: Ezone 210/211
* Smash Perth has suggested to do this on the 18th of Jan
* The main obstacle is venues, venues may be open from the 13th which is too short a time for advertising
* We will ask if they have a date that is a little bit later
* Early Feb would likely be preferable
* They also have offered the 25th of January
* could be better to do it later to ensure more people are around but we are not sure if they want us to bring people, however this is unlikely as it is mostly their people who participate
* We will send venues an email but we are unsure if we can get the venue for the 25th
* If venues doesn't reply we can ask Smash Perth if they can do a date in Feb
> Elijah: email venues about Smash Perth Collaboration
#### UnCharity Vigil
Tentative Time: 1st Feb 5pm - 2nd Feb 10am
* UnCharity doesn't want outside events, therefore Capture the Flag is out
* The suggested time right now is the 1st Feb 5pm - 2nd Feb 10am
* Payment will mostly be in cash but some think the square reader can only be used for 1 thing,
* entry fee is shared between clubs and club specific events which is not shared
* We can set different payments up for different things which will allow for divving up
* We may also get to use the loft but that depends on what UWASCA is doing
* We want to ensure there is atleast 1 person from our committee there at all times
* Can make a schedule or just make it up as we go
* Current plans for events in our clubroom:
* Taskmaster
* Smash and/or Mario Kart Tournament
* Highscore (atari, mario kart trials, home run bat, aimlab challenge)
* Halo & Quake inhouses for collaboration with UCC
* We think it would be a good idea to suggest Counter Strike as well
* Possibly suggest a mini quiz
* A variation on The Chase or something could be fun
> James & Adam: work on a draft schedule for UnCharity Vigil
> James: make a when2meet for UnCharity Vigil
| Motion: Approval of UnCharity Vigil Prize Budget for $60 |
