Will there be more IC meetings? Myself and other North Americans would appreciate one that makes sense for our time zone.

I'm in the Pacific time zone and am usually on somewhere from 6:30-9 PM. Sundays are the only one I can be on during the day for sure, myself, but even if there's a Saturday meeting that others can attend that'd still be good for player involvement.

We definately intend to have more in game meetings of RCD team members. I agree that it is good to have them in different time zones. It is good that Waesed is in a different time zone than me and Sulaika.

I am comfortable with having meetings where not all members of the RCD (core) team are present. But I ask to coordinate major changes to the Den´s with the team.
Love,
Damola

So as Sulaika and Waesed agreed with me posting it, here are the ideas and task assignments from the in game meeting we had on Friday.

Currently we do not intend to open the place unattended. It would require some work to lock everything down and we want to focus to improve the opening times and make it way more obvious and easy for players to rent the place instead. With some trust and the security guarantee deposited this can even work at times when no one of the RCD team can attend, I´d say. So just show that you can give back the key and the place in one piece, and we give out the key again :).

And the RCD will be hiring. Expect job postings, but also feel free to contact either Waesed, Sulaika and/or me in case you want to work at the Den´s starting from now.

Also if your an artist and want to help us with flyers, materials for the billboard, updating the menu card and things like that, please contact us. If you are an artist we know about, expect to be contacted by us about it :).

Please allow for some time for us to implement all the ideas. We welcome help. Thank you.


More and more regular events.
Concrete ideas:
- Mini / small events like: {Damola/Sulaika}
  - All you can eat Flat pie nights for one circle. Ravynne offered help for the Flat Pies making {Waesed}
  - All you can eat for Kran as well {Waesed}
  - Xiosia´s blessing: Bring in your harvest and we cook together. {Damola}
  - Art Evening: Always wanted to have some audience for your newly made song, fire show or other performance. Come to the art evening, go on the stage. {Damola, Sulaika?}
- Once a month an event of the Den {Waesed?}
- Seminars and workshops on weekends: A trainer trains people in how to cook, make herbals, craft something and with the cooperation of the octarchy we can even hand out some crafting books. [Sulaika]
- More public planning on events. Announce via flyers, billboard. [And in forum to ask for ideas and help with organizing them] {Everyone?}


Better information and advertising
- Flyers on events and more. We need artist help to create some. {Sulaika asks Dannae. Damola asks in forum for help}
- Billboard in front of Red Crystal Den. {Damola talks to Octarchy about this}
- A sign about what is the Den´s, its history and who manages the place, whom to contact with inquiries for events. [Also in forum] {Waesed}
- A special flyer for Renting the Den for parties and events -> security guarentee like an amount of tria or an rare item for the key {Damola}
- Job posting, describing them completely with offer to pay for the work done. {Sulaika}
  - Bartenders
  - Cooks
  - Musicions and other artists.
  - Guards [Suggestion by Jirerel and Sulaika]. Maybe good with martial arts skills, so without full armor and weaponry and at discretion of the one who opens whether to have guards or not. Maybe in front of Den´s even in full armor and weaponry. {Sulaika, well make an suggestion for review:)}
  - Maybe people who help with organizing events?
- Torches for new players, so they can find the way to the Red Crystal Den more easy. {Waesed}
- A sign when the Den is open. {Damola for first draft}


Enlarge the RCD team
- Characters in any guilds can join.
- Share the work on more shoulders so that it remains fun for everyone.
- Requires a low long term commitment. Open it at least once, preferably twice a month. It is quite an easy commitment. Of course you can open more often. But some commitment is needed in order to qualify for a key.
- The job postings of course.
- Forum announcement and posting.
- We need more keys anyway {Waesed petitions Octarchy about it}
- Concrete ideas for additions to the team:
  - Waesed, Sulaika and me each have one player/char we want to contact and invite to the team
  - I don´t want to give names before these players agreed to help out

One more note about guards: Damola is fine with each one who opens to cater for safety individually. So anyone who opens and wants a guard, even if in full armor and weaponry, go ahead. If you intend to open together with Damola… well, I trust in our RP capabilities.  :)

Of course Damola expects decent, high standard behaviour of the guards. If you are into playing a guard who bosses guests around without good reason… well then better make sure Damola doesn´t get to know about it.  ;)

And nope, of course this isn´t an invitation to RP things. If you read anything like this into my message, you are completely off track.  ;D
Love,
Damola

I love these ideas! When I get back I'm sure Demagul would be happy to help with the public herbal workshops  :D

A longer term commitment? Put it this way, I ain't dead yet. ;D

I can assure everyone that the RCD will not be open without an attendant. (Unless the GM Team rips it from my cold dead hands.  :P)

They have. :o
