3) Willing to schedule events/ do simple clerical work.

Define what "clerical work" would be.

[Sirrus]

Define what "clerical work" would be.

Post a summary of events, post announcements, take meeting minutes during the meetings, and other odd jobs that need doing.

[Skip]

Well that's not so bad.

People have tried this "BL gaming group" thing several times and most of them failed because nothing was planned.

Also, how to apply to be an officer?

At this point the group is 90 members. To get as close to that many people playing games as often as possible, we need to coordinate what server we're going to be playing in, when's the best time for everyone to play across an eight hour margin of time due to time zones, who will be moderating the event, who will post and set up the event, and how often to host that event, obviously among other things.

To quote, well, myself, form the officer meeting: "if we're going to incooperate many people, have a smooth time, and do it on a regular basis for a long time, it's going to take a lot of organization and attention to detail."

Thank you for a well-put answer of an inane question.

@Skip, you can talk to any officer and we'll invite you to the next officer meeting.  Very informal, no application or anything like that, just discussion and participation are all that's needed to be considered.

[Skip]

Let me know when one's going on and I will.
Also know I didn't just join earlier today for the hell of it.
