Mostly the trivia part. The questions are <em>mostly </em>multiple choice, but I&#8217;m going to try and mix it up this year with some different things. The questions are mostly anime-related because otherwise it would just be <em>silly, </em>but we do our best to make the trivia accessible to everyone.  To give you an idea, here are some sample questions from last time:</p> <p>Which of the following anime series is NOT based on an RPG?<br /> a) Tales of the Abyss<br /> b) Valkyria Chronicles<br /> c) Phantom of Inferno<br /> d) Star Ocean</p> <p>Which of these is not a Pokemon?<br /> a) Charmander<br /> b) Blaziken<br /> c) Darkrai<br /> d) Yoshi</p> <p>In TTGL, Simon leaps through time and space to stop Rossiu from killing himself by&#8230;<br /> a) Talking him out of it<br /> b) Tying him up<br /> c) Forgiving him<br /> d) Punching him in the face</p> <p>(No you don&#8217;t need to send me the answers. I forgot them anyway!)</p> <p>There are all kinds of categories ranging from the latest season of anime to the oldest shows to Janken King to Books Written By People Who Were Assassinated By The Irish Republican Army (back by popular demand!). Prizes are up for grabs, though personally I think the good times and the pizza are reward enough.</p> <p>It is free entry, though there is a pizza tax ($5 for members and $8 nonmembers, which gets you a whole pizza to yourself and a free drink). Additional drinks are probably  $1.</p> <p>RSVP to me at events@suanime.org by noon on Thursday the 24thwith the usual details.

The sum of it is that ANY club member (that is you have signed up as a member some time during this year, which means you also have an ACCESS card) can nominate themselves or accept nominations for any exec position(s) AND you can vote in the elections of your fellow peers too! To nominate for or to find out more about a position send an email to <a href="mailto:personnel@suanime.org">personnel@suanime.org</a></p> <p><strong>WHEN: 6 - 9 pm, Friday 9th October</strong></p> <p><strong>WHERE: Eastern Avenue Seminar Room 116</strong></p> <p> <br /> We will also be discussing amendments to our constitution at the AGM. The constitution of the club states how we manage the club. The executive team is proposing the following amendments to the constitution to be discussed and possibly voted upon at the AGM:</p> <p>Motion 1: To change the number of times to meet per semester for an ordinary meeting to every four (4) weeks. An ordinary meeting is the place where you as a member can discuss and help plan events etc of the club - to participate in the running of the club without necessarily being an exec! XD</p> <p>Motion 2: To discuss the executive position, the Librarian, and its possible future role in the club. (I wouldn&#8217;t blame you if you didn&#8217;t know there was even a Librarian exec - the librarian has been very, very quiet&#8230;! =P)</p> <p> </p> <p> Hope to see you there!</p> <p>~ SAKI</p> <p class="postmetadata alt"> <small> This entry was posted on Tuesday, September 15th, 2009 at 12:20 am and is filed under <a href="http://www.suanime.org/category/uncategorized/" title="View all posts in Uncategorized" rel="category tag">Uncategorized</a>.
