Open Meeting Topics:
1)

We’d like to gauge interest on a new, fresh install of forums for our community. This wouldn’t ‘cost us’ any server overhead or money, just a little tinkering time.

Discord is great, but modern forums integrate very well WITH Discord, mobile devices, WordPress websites, and lots more. (Including social networks.) Some of our members have a hard time keeping up with discussions of any length or importance on Discord, and have been asking about forums for the purposes of more long-form discussion.

Obviously forums would also allow us to have certain groups or Discord roles to have their own little areas to discuss things easier to discuss over time, post guides to each other, and that kind of thing. (Stuff that might be easier to navigate in a forum setting rather than a Discord one.)

Modern forums are kind of halfway between Discord and social networks. We may try this out regardless, but wanted to gauge actual interest in the idea. Also, if people are interested, do they have any ideas on prerequisites we should have? We plan on making these forums extremely easy for mobile devices, for example.

Some of the integration would be very seamless, your Discord name would be your username on the forums, your Roles in Discord would be groups you can belong to in the Forums, etc.

No ETA on going live at this time. (We haven’t even started experimentation yet, just gauging interest.)

2)

King Th0r has been given the Event Coordinator role and will be running a six week long LotR and Hobbit EXTENDED EDITION movie marathon!

Starting Saturday, May 8th at 12pm Pac/1pm Mtn/2pm Ctrl/3pm Est, King Th0r will be showing these movies in order of their original plotlines.

1) The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (PG-13)
2) The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (PG-13)
3) The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (R) (For some violence and CGI blood)
4) The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring (PG-13)
5) The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (PG-13)
6) The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (PG-13)

These movies are all Extended Editions, meaning that there is A LOT more footage that may have not been seen in the theatrical releases.

All of these events will take place on our Discord at https://discord.ccgaming.com
These events have been added to our Steam Group and Website Calendars, announced on our Discord, and scheduled via Facebook as well.

3)

CC Channel Reorganization – Changes Made:
– Among Us 2 VC deleted
– Conference Room VC moved to CC Members channel section
– Nekk’s Nook and Movie Theatre was condensed into Chamber of Events (Event focused channel, excluding Bible Study & Prayer Meeting)
– New text channel underneath #games; #Looking-2-Play channel to be created to have a central location for people looking to play any game (including current Roles that don’t have their own channels)

4)

Discussion regarding Prayer Night – Moving the Prayer Night to Friday?
– Kesa doesn’t want to have Prayer Night interfere with other events so she asked about moving it
– Friday seems to be the new possible night for Prayer Night
– Prayer Night has been moved to Friday nights

5)

There was some discussion about Minecraft stuff, Don’t Starve stuff, server stuff, etc.
_______________

Bob: Movie Night Mondays are coming back soon, possibly as early as this coming Monday

I can’t guarantee weekly showings like before, but I wanna try to do it at least a couple times a month. There’ll be a mix of movies and continuing Clone Wars where I left off a few months ago.

First movie on the list: The Princess Bride

___________

Wiserat wanted to know if the community knows why Bible Study attendance has been low
– Bible Study seems to be low due to changes going on in people’s lives
___________

Pingjockey has access to Elite Dangerous: Odyssey and wants to know if people want to watch him (might be a Twitch Stream thing) (More info incoming.)

___________

Minecraft Discussion – What are we doing next on the Minecraft Server?
– Pingjockey asked about helping out with setting up another Minecraft server (Pingjockey has some hardware that could be used)
– Possible 1-day event: Flat Obsidian Battle Royale World – needs to be planned out
– Mod Pack? Many have been suggested, but not decided on yet
– Terra-Firma-Craft (TFC) has the most backing right now
– #minecraft will have a more in-depth discussion on fine details for the modded Minecraft Server
– Two Minecraft servers are setup and can be up and running for the new modded setup and the 1-Day Event

Closed Meeting Topics:
1)

We spoke about an unused channel we want to put away but not delete, since it should come back with the v18 upgrade of Fishsticks, our Discord bot.

The Moderator position was offered to, (and accepted by): Elidold and Sly. Welcome new mods!
