MEMBERS
Bad news, I had to kick S10 for not showing any interest in the team and for not willing to be active while still beeing new in the team.
Good news, we just recruited Brian "lawsauce" Foster on September 16th. He is 19 yrs old. Xfire: lawlsauce, E-mail: brian_foster15@yahoo.com

GAMES
We will still play COD4 this season, but on november 11th, COD5 arrives. So slowly but certainly, we will leave one game for another. Everybody agreed at the meeting that we will still play COD4 here and there, but around January 2009, we will be set in COD5.

LEAGUES & EVENTS
Even thought I received votes for CEVO from many of you who quite honestly, didn't know what they were voting on, that league was out of the question as only 1 real vote was made for that league. Everybody else voted for CAL and that's the league we will be competing in. Don't forget to register at www.caleague.com and join team Wolfpack (wp.) in COD4 Open. The password is (wolfxXx). Make sure you have the latest patch (1.7). To get your guid, you need to get in a punkbuster server and type in the console /pb_plist. Take the one next to your name.

COMMUNICATION
One last time, I'm telling you it's important to read your e-mail. That's the main way for me to give you the information about the team. But yeah, I'll be working on the website now a few hours here and there, and for that I have to reduce my schedule to play cod4 with you guys. Hopefully I can get you to check the website often enough so you don't have to check your e-mail again to know the news.

MEETING RESUME
The first part of the meeting was about the results of the form. You can get them all here:
Form : http://wolfpack-4life.net/images/FormResults.png
Schedule : http://wolfpack-4life.net/images/TeamSchedule.png
What we want : http://wolfpack-4life.net/images/WhatWeWant.png

Not everybody that says they will be active will be enough to play CAL, but we can count on 6 or 7 players at least. Some others are letting me know they might be back soon hopefully. Following this we bought the server, but didn't pay for it yet. We got 7 days to pay it. Which means if in 7 days, thoses who said they would give their part (5$) didn't do it, I'll ask for my refund and we will simply not get one. We got a 12 Slots COD4 private server. You can make your payment throught this link : http://www.gameservers.com/clanpay/?clanid=94d96ead82b3c8505566f5cad2bbf635 with clanpay or talk with me for some other method to pay.

After looking at everybody's schedule, we also realize it was hard to make a schedule that will fit with everybody. However, we will stick with the following schedule for now, especially for those who won't play much. Sunday: 8:00 - 10:00PM
Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday: 9:00 - 11:00PM

Conclusion, this meeting lasted way too long for only 10 minutes of content. For those who weren't there, you got to know we started at 10:30 only to finish 1 hour later. Ouch! Now, I'll admit that was an entertaining meeting, but if we want to make jokes and watch dirty video, let's schedule any other time for this. I was thinking about having a meeting every month, but I guess it'll be better if I simply write it. Again, not many were there it felt like 2 persons didn't care about it. If you don't care or don't want to listen to it, then simply don't come. That will be less frustrating for me. I don't need to name who I'm talking about. It's simple, in a meeting you try to listen well and not do anything else meanwhile, no playing game and definitly not talking on another ventrilo or teamspeak!

Finally, there's very simple stuff I'm asking to some of you and it would need to be done quickly.

- Mooh: I heard you had 2 cd-key. Collector wants to be there and play CAL. Can you guys talk and deal with this before the season starts?
- Mailman: Samething for you, would it be possible to have yours for Nero. He has nothing to do these days and I bet if he had yours he would be on all the time.
- Everybody: Register at CAL and join the team now. We only have a few days to get a match scheduled for week #1.
- Everybody: If you said you would help for the server, go on the clanpay link I put in earlier and make your payment now. Again, only a few days to do it and not many to set the server in time for next sunday.
