Regarding last Friday’s Meeting

Alex — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 21:18:25 +0000

I’d like to apologize to everybody who showed up after 8:30 Friday night. Right around that time, we were informed that some other organization(s) had overridden our room reservations and booked the entirety of the basement and first floor of Beering. Must be nice.

Anyway, it won’t happen again. We’ll meet up again this Friday same time, same place.

Coming Soon: Stuff

Alex — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 21:20:15 +0000

Also things.

It’s getting close to the start of the school year, so that means it’s time for the officers to get things together and start organizing. We’re working on it.

For now, we know that meetings will once again be on Friday nights from 7-10 in the basement of Beering. The first meeting will be on the 27th.

Regarding the callout, we have no set date yet. It’ll probably be a couple weeks after classes start and an hour before a meeting. More details later.

Dues this year will be $20/year or $15/semester. We have a lot of things to buy this year, including Rock Band 3 and a new DDR pad.

Check back later for more info. As always, if you have a question, use the contact form.

End of the Year

Alex — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 02:17:35 +0000

Thus ends another semester of the PMGC. Sage, our president, and Steph, our long-running treasurer, will sadly be graduating soon, so Nate ‘Omega’ Warnick will be stepping up to the plate as president, and Alex ‘Jack-of-all-Trades/Yep-I’m-still-here’ Barnett (myself) will be handling treasurer duties. Also new to the officer’s list is David “Dave Davidson Daveson”, whose last name I honestly don’t know. He’ll be doing the vice presidential tasks.

As for next year, we have plans. Big, huge, undefined plans. Just you watch. For now though, let’s just assume we’ll be moving the meetings back to Friday.

Also I’ll be updating the member roster soon. Sorry that’s taking so long.

See you next year!

The Crowded Basement

Alex — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 19:11:42 +0000

If you’ve been to the basement of Beering on a Thursday night in the past couple of weeks, you’ve probably noticed a huge crowd of people packing the hallway wall-to-wall. To address some confusion, I’ll just clarify that they’re not us, they’re a fire hazard the BGR training people. Due to some logistical issues, our rooms are scattered around theirs instead of being right next to each other like usual. So, to help you guys find the correct rooms, we’re marking each of ours with a game sign.

The BGR group is usually out by 8-8:30. If they’re in your way, just politely push past them.

First Meeting this Semester

Alex — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 01:20:11 +0000

Ladies and Gentlefolk,

I have been informed by our presiding overlord that we WILL in fact be meeting this Thursday (01/14/09) at our normal time and place. I’ve also heard a rumor that a certain Rock Band accessory we’ve not seen before may be in attendance, so if you’re into that sort of thing you should probably show up.

PMGC wants YOU

Alex — Thu, 24 Dec 2009 22:25:49 +0000

Every once in awhile, I like to take a look at this site’s analytics page to see what search terms are bringing people to our humble little page. What I’m seeing appears to suggest that there are some people finding this site that (gasp) aren’t members of the club!

So, this is a humble appeal to you nameless wanderers: Come visit us next semester. “But Alex!” you say, “I’d love to come and play DDR, but I need to read through the Twilight books just one more time!” Nonsense. I assure you, our company is far superior to such drivel.

Perhaps you’re almost on the verge of showing up, but your crippling social anxiety is preventing you from taking the plunge. You needn’t worry about that: Studies show that 73% of our new members are hilariously inept when it comes to public gatherings involving more than 4 people and a case of Mountain Dew. Further studies show that 92% of those social misfits made a complete recovery and are now charming, witty, and attractive members of society.

So please, you owe it to yourself. Come have some fun with us next semester.

Final Meeting of the Semester

Alex — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 21:33:14 +0000

In case you didn’t see the newsletter, this Thursday (12/10/2009) will be our final meeting of this semester. Please don’t show up during finals week, you’ll only be greeted by a cold, empty hallway.

Halloween Party

Alex — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 05:51:22 +0000

This week’s meeting is our annual Halloween party, so feel free to show up in costume. We’ll be providing a bunch of snacks, but as always, please be extra awesome and bring a little something to share (ie, a bag of chips, a 2 liter of pop, a dozen cookies, etc). For those of you who are still in the dorms, this is an excellent chance to use those dining dollars (assuming you have any left).

I’ll be posting pictures as soon as I get them.

Click for full size.

Man, we look awesome. Special thanks to David for lending us his L33T camera skillz. Also, big thanks to MTV for sending us that shiny new Rickenbacker you see in the front row.

If you missed the meeting and wanted to be in the picture, sorry, I’m not that great with Photoshop. Just be sure to show up next time we announce a photo shoot.

Meeting Tonight (9-17-09)

Alex — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 17:36:47 +0000

All the cool kids will be there. You want to be cool, right? Of course you do.

To all the new members, remember that meetings start at 7 PM (not 6). Hope to see you there.
