Present: Belar, Ilanas, Endarion, Neffetiti, Marianne

Matters discussed:

1. Making the raid should we have more than 30 signups will obviously require us to reduce to a maximum number of 30. We need to have a method to prioritise and this is what we will use:

Topic discussed: Tanks for Shadowlands

After a good discussion which covered all aspects of this topic, our tanks for Shadowlands will be Ren, Neffetiti and Huamanu. Backups will be Nalya and Asmodeusz as long as they promise not to make our regular tanks look bad….

Present: Belar, Kess, Illanas, Endarion

We had a wide-ranging discussion around raiding and the composition of the raid team. Sharion has been set at Elder and Neffe has been promoted to officer This also marks the first time since the guild was formed that the officers have had more ladies than gentlemen!!!

Present: Belar, Marianne, Endarion, Illanas, Neffe

Tactics in raids Too many voices or too many tactical choices lead to a confused raid. Please allow trhe RL to set out the tactics he wishes to use without interruption. He will then ask for comments, thanks

Today Endarion agreed to become an officer partly because he will now have the ability to demote or Kick Stev Mostly it’s because he has been with us for a good long time and has always been willing to help others and the guild. We agreed that he is allowed to go fishing in the summer, and sometimes in the winter Sadly, he has not agreed that druids are not food… B

Kess and I talked at some length last night and she offered to step up to officer again if I thought that would help. I accepted with gratitude.

Present: Belar, Ren, Ilanas, Marianneke, Alaranna (despite weather)

Starting comment from B: I would like the guild to know that the officers have all been struggling, to varying degrees, with RL issues around health, work and personal matters. Please be aware that the people you talk to online might be having tough times outside WoW and think before you speak or even vent. We are committed to keeping this guild an enjoyable place to be and we ask for your cooperation and support with this task.

We have been lucky to have Marianne and Illanas join the officer team. Those who comment that we needed two more officers to replace Kess, well, really!

Recent discussions have lead to a change which we want you all to be aware of.

Old rule: You can have as many alts in the guild as you like but your main must be here. The main character for a raider, will be the character that generally raids to the highest level If you leave the guild with your main, all alts must be removed

Present: Belar, Ren, Kessina, Alaranna

1. Raid timetable Raiding opens on 5th September, normal mode We hope to be raiding heroic three weeks later ie by the end of September Please be ready for normal raiding by 19th September at the latest or you may not be able to make the transition to heroic and we might need to give your slot to another player who is more prepared. The gear you will need will be and average of 340 for normal (this is the gear dropped in mythic +0 dungeons)
