- Birthdays
- Comeback
- Survey
Yeah, it's already time to get back in class for most of us or only a few days remaining for the rest. It's a comeback for me too as some of you know. I'm really motivated and ready to succeed this time. I hope you are as much as I am and I want to wish the best of luck to everyone concerned in this up coming school year. How's been the weather? Pretty hot and wet here for the past 3 weeks, but it wasn't the case for the 3 previous months. Always raining and cold temperatures.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed your summer and had time to go on vacation and enjoy it as much as possible. It wasn't the case for me. I didn't even have time to do some ground camping. Yet, I really enjoyed my summer as always.
BIRTHDAYS

COMEBACK
That's a short and mandatory question we need to ask ourself. I don't have the answer. It will depend on all of you. Simply answer me in the last section of this newsletter via e-mail, msn, xfire or facebook.
Here's what's up. As always, I'm there for the team, but you will understand, less than before. The schedule would be pretty much the same as last winter with 1 evening of about 2 hours as late as possible; that way, every homework or projects should be done and we get to spend a few hours to play, relax and have fun before going to bed. So, 10:00 PM would be the perfect time, I think, to meet up on a random day of the week that will depend on your personnal schedule. It's very small, but I prefer to keep it like that and leave place for more if we can.
To start, there will be obviously only old COD games to play, but after that will depend on another survey. Let me know what interest you. I have to admit, not a whole lot of actual games or futur interest me. Many good games will be available soon for consoles, but for computer, bah that's another story. COD6 "modern warfare 2" or what? We have to forget mmorpg, so that doesn't leave much.
Let's say we go in COD6, either we will play in pub servers or we buy one private ourself and invite people. EVERYBODY will have to play his slot. Anyway, about 1$ a month won't break you.
All this brings me to a similar old subject. Shouldn't we consider going to console one of these day? Of course, that would be hard now because everybody has one and no one is interested to buy the other console. But who knows for the next-gen. Also, the PC standards aren't slowing down and it will always cost us around 500$ to keep up. On the other side, it's easy to communicate on consoles with headsets, there's many good games and playing online is really easy. We'll comeback to this.
On another subject, I already talked to some of you about a certain plan for a comeback. I will talk about it, but I doubt it's the right time to do it since the participation of the members we have wouldn't be big enough I believe. So here's what it's all about.
The huge gaming phase has ended and most people either, yeah still play like crazy in leagues or they rarely play like us. The priorites aren't the same, thank god and nobody is gonna stay healty doing Wii Fit believe me. So we could have recruted massively up to 30 members including us and that way, we shouldn't need a schedule. Chances are, there will always be someone on during the evenings. This project may still be possible, you let me know what you think. Who could we have recruted? Friends, people we know, small clans but always keeping our rules and ethic that us work well and make them understand that so they get interested.
If in general people don't want to comeback this fall, I'd like us to meet up and have one gaming or chat evening per month.
SURVEY
I've got 4 little questions for you. Answer me via e-mail, xfire, msn or even Facebook.
1. Do you want to play this fall with the team? Yes or No, no maybe = No
2. If yes, what game interest you?
3. If no, do you want to regroup one evening a month to play or talk.
4. Do you think the idea of recruiting massively is a good one?
Thank you!
