Attendees: Nate, Socks. Matt, Lauren

Discussion:

• Launch status
  • waiting on Raven to update the emails when games are registered
• Close date
  • can we move it a week earlier so that it doesn’t close on a holiday weekend? had negative feedback from devs in MIVS last year.
  • Friday before was proposed
    • this would not solve the problem of no volunteer staff available to take next steps because holiday
  • one week earlier would be too short. are we setting up our outreach team to fail?
  • if we keep it through the end of the month, we need to extend past Labor Day
  • decided on 11:59pm Tuesday Sept 2 close. will communicate to get builds in early.
• “Arcade Cabinet”
  • how do we parse the work?
  • can’t give a list of jobs when the list hasn’t been written
  • some discussion on how we each see this working with some lists from Socks
  • ok to shadow for a year and document as we go. jobs will pop up as we go.
• Initiative teams
  • are we making this more complicated than it needs to be?
  • it is more people assigned than we’ve ever done in MIVS, but don’t want to quell enthusiasm and possible some people may not be able to commit as much as others once they start going
  • will reach out to all teams this week

Action Items:

• Reach out to your respective initiative teams to kick them off
• Follow up with Raven re: launch and be ready with social media blasts
