Ultra short term:
- Explore how to balance that our depts are different vs how do we help people who have qs about MIVS
- Next Steps: Covered in part by the map, but also should coord with MIVs leadership to set harder expectations here (can wait until super lead up)
- Have conversations with contractors about bringing enough and functional stuff. Its a contract for a reason
- Next Steps: Depts Heads meet in a week to discuss how we approach busted games.
- Curation stuff that can happen before Spring MAGCon
- Curation Follow up: Last minute game adds, intentional vs polished games included, how do address the lack of control we're likely to have, waitlists etc, reinvestigate the weight(floorspace) we allocate to contracted collectors vs curation (Lauren, Flan, DHs, maybe Dustin)
- Formalize curation roadmap before form is live; including Curation Rubric - which is a meeting with primary staff, and Outreach list - Matt Lepage do this next week (cross post to mag slack, discord, mailing list)
- student games convo! (James, Mark, Flan, Travis?, DHs, Kat?, Tronster?). Reach out to instructors, and ask the q: does it make sense to have a table of student games? If they’re following different rubrics, then probs yes, if we’re just pushing for standard submission, no
Staff Prep
Handbook Updates
- invest in training! Invest in social introduction! Know who to give tools to
Next Steps:
- Team bonding night - make signs and posters and crap for the space to set visual identity (mission statement posters)
- Do More with Training pre-event, make it more clear that it’s mandatory and add samples of key tasks etc
- Communicate to volunteers what all is part of load in and setup
- Be more boring and comprehensive about toolbox stuff (both loan process but also empower our team to know what’s in it, how to find it, how to pass it out)
- Maintenance doc for improvised games (keep an eye on this, think about how to identify "real" stuff) Add something about this to the handbook/training, so staff know what to expect and how to react to new inventions
- Tournament process training
Post Spring MAGCon / Super Prep
Logistics, Booth, and MIVS
- Maps for MIVS and IA share full setups so everyone can help devs find where to go - look into how we can do this earlier
Takeaways from MIVS retro - They just wanna get their shit done sooner, exploring stock layouts
Next Steps: Hurry up and wait till next year, this is step zero of layout
TODO ADD MORE SPACE 6’ of space between table and tools also add shelves back.
