RPGs

RPG O-DAY - 07/03/2023 - 5PM
  • Jackie Feedback Says
  • Remove pizza run if event doesn’t run for ~3+ hours
    • Hard to spruik RPGs with pizza in ur mouth / ur pizza goes cold
  • If the event became more popular with expected higher attendance, we’d have to look into a different bigger venue
  • Start time thoughts
    • Lewis: experiment with a slightly earlier start time? only con is that it'd be a bit tricky to work around people's work
  • Almost all attendee responses would be interested in the event starting earlier than 5pm
  • Attendee responses indicate that they all felt like they learnt new interesting systems that they’ll look into in the future & felt the variety on display was good
    • One attendee reports that the quantity of systems felt small
  • Advertisement could be improved & made more stand-out
    • If kept as a week 2 event, previous committee should be on it and putting out advertising before the AGM
  • Attendee reports that there weren’t enough systems for the number of people who showed up
    • Spent good amount of time waiting for tables to free up so they could hear about the system(s) properly
  • Better Diversity, Better Advertising, Less (no) Pizza
