<div dir="ltr">So far, I don't even have Rob on this email list, but I do include him in meetings (with approval), since he is working on the website and is my senior volunteer, but I didn't do it until we had run several cons together. I think it would be best to include Malakai in planning for the next con when we are discussing Discord, but to confine the meeting on Sunday to heads so that it doesn't become a Discord issue dumping session, and so Malakai doesn't feel anything has to be actionable or anything. The next project needs to be thinking about the Strategicon website and improvements for the virtual experience, which we can direct at Rob and Tanya as needed.<div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>Tara</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, May 27, 2020 at 11:55 AM Strategicon Department Heads <<a href="mailto:deptheads@strategicon.net">deptheads@strategicon.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Message From: Tanya Aldrich <a href="mailto:taldrich@strategicon.net" target="_blank">taldrich@strategicon.net</a><br>
I can be there.<br>
<br>
If possible, please email any web related issues and requests be to me A.S.A.P. That way, it will be documented, and a lot of stuff can be hashed out in advance. If things need a 1 on 1 discord audio chat, that can be arranged. It’s just hard to discuss such a broad topic in the group meeting without something being missed, and my questionable mic doesn’t help.<br>
<br>
I’d like to get a list together of everything folks can think of that needs addressing with as many details as we can, and I’ll post the list to this list before the meeting.<br>
<br>
I’m not saying not to discuss the website at the meeting, since it was a big part of the con this time. I just would like to get some of the data in advance.<br>
<br>
For example, we need a page or more of details on being virtual and using Discord. The main issue I had was audio being $^&*%$*, most likely by a combo of poor bandwidth on the player’s end and having their camera on. From experience, turning your camera off isn’t always obvious, depending on your device. I only write content for the site if I know what I’m writing about. So, others need to put together the info, and I or Eric A will edit/format it into content, as needed. We can include videos, but we can’t depend on them to convey the knowledge.<br>

Are you all down for a post-con meeting this Sunday at noon PST, same Bat Time, same Bat Channel? We should celebrate the successes of the weekend, talk about what we can do better, and discuss what we needed and found we didn't need, etc. Let us know if this works for you and if we can count you in, or if you'd prefer a different day. Whenever we do it, I will take entertaining notes. Someone should take good ones. ;)<br>
