[12:03] [Ruben|Genetics|PiN] Welcome to the second house meeting of the year, Gryffindors!
[12:03] [Ruben|Genetics|PiN] Before we start, we have to go over a few simple rules that must be followed at all times during the house meeting.
[12:03] [scoots] Hey ruben
[12:03] [ZachGoldenfarb] *sits next to kads* When is it gonna start?
[12:03] [Ruben|Genetics|PiN] First rule! Unless you are an operator with the @ next to your name, colours off! You can turn your colors off with the simple command "/remote off" ...without the quotes, of course.
[12:03] [Ruben|Genetics|PiN] Okay, now that all of you are colour-free, moving on to the second rule! This one is slightly more complicated so listen (or watch) carefully.
[12:03] [Ruben|Genetics|PiN] When you have a comment, type "!". Wait for an operator/moderator/owner of a @ to call on you.
[12:03] [Ruben|Genetics|PiN] (Make sure to be typing your comment while waiting to be called on though, as we don’t like to wait.)
[12:03] [Ruben|Genetics|PiN] When you are called on, you may then comment. If at any time during the time you are waiting to be called on you decide that you no longer want to comment, please type "-!" and then no one will call on you
[12:04] [Ruben|Genetics|PiN] The same goes for questions but instead of using !/-!, you use ?/-?. Simple, isn't it?
[12:04] [Ruben|Genetics|PiN] And that's all for now. Enjoy the meeting! *tosses mic to Missa*
[12:04] [Pi] To add into that, no idle chit chat. I don't enjoy htmling a 12 page meeting like the last one.
[12:04] [Pi] Okay, let's start it off.
[12:04] [Pi] First topic of discussion revolves around everyone's favorite, GQT!
[12:05] [Pi] The first GQT tryouts of the year have been concluded, so let's welcome the new team! Returning members: Ben Ackermandm Derek James, Kadina Tigano, Katie Potter, Jenny Lupin, Joanne Grey, Julie Garnet, Missa Matz. And our new members: Barabara Phoenix, Drew Potter, Joel Aireserkeiel, and Zenix James.
[12:05] [ZachGoldenfarb] WOOT WOOT!
[12:05] [Pi] quiet
[12:05] [Pi] With that said, practices are busily underway, with our first game of the season approaching on November 3rd against Hufflepuff. If you want to watch you can go to #quidditch and cheering is in #grandstand. The game will be at 9 pm HOL time on Saturday November 3rd, hope you can be there to cheer us on.
[12:05] [Pi] Any questions or comments?

[12:15] [Cyriel] So, like they said last year, It's Here!!! :O:O:O Yes indeed, it's the month of Gryfftober once again and with that, Gryfftoberfest is back in it's full glory. What's it all about, you wonder? Uhm, BUTTERBEER. *nod* What else? Nah, surprisingly enough Gryfftoberfest does in fact include a lot of other fun stuff besides butterbeer. Although the drink is without doubt one of the basic elements of the whole thing.
[12:15] [Cyriel] As for the other fun stuff, well, this year there are 10 contests for you to take part in, check the Gryfftoberfest forum (http://www.gryff.net/CR/index.php?showforum=12) for further info and cheesecake. Besides those, and you can discuss the joys of the wonderful festival thingy in a separate topic made just for that. Also, IRC games are held every weekend, be sure to participate!
[12:15] [Cyriel] Like you've probably noticed yourself, the winners of the first contests have already been announced. For the motto contest, in first place we have Zuvona Miska with „Gryfftoberfest: Where only the insane are bold enough to tread”
[12:15] [Cyriel] The signature contest winner was Joel Aireserkeiel, with a siggy you can see, well, all over the Gryff and HOL forums, thanks to everyone showing their Gryffie pride in a most spectacular way, but also right here: http://gryff.net/gryff-fest2007/Siggy1.gif

[12:20] [ZachGoldenfarb] What's a multipler?
[12:20] [Zenix] Anyone else?
[12:20] [Pi] It's because of the size of the house.
[12:20] [Pi] something that makes the house sizes equal when earning points
