Society Update?

Post by serleran »

Has there been anything done on updating the Society, or creating the updated Domesday Book? Also, have any details on the PbEM Airdhe wargame been made available?

I'm just curious. If we, that is, those in the Society, can do anything to help... will you let us know what it is?

I'd like to know if I'm in the Society for sure. I never got anything saying one way or the other.

I'm still trying to figure out if my last member was added.

Hi guys -

I had a significant computer problem a couple of weeks ago. I was able to restore a lot of data, but the database where I contain the Society rolls was corrupted. Steve is resending me the pertinent information, and when that's done, I'll begin the process of reconstruction of the database.

Once that's done, I can move forward on other plans, but this is really a case of one step forward, two steps back.

As soon as any requests sent to CCSociety@gmail.com are added to the database, I will send confirmation notices.

Thanks,

Fiff

Good news. I managed to find a raw data file with the information I need in it. I don't have to wait for Steve to resend it, now. I will rebuild the database and we should be rolling.

Very good news, Fiff! It'll be good to have the Society running with you at the helm.

Expect a response by the weekend. I'm trying to get rolling on this again. It might take me a while to get caught up, but I'll get there.

Once I do, I'll open the floodgates for submissions to the Domesday Book.

Fiff.

Thanks for all the hard work, Fiff. If you need any kind of help, just let us know. I'm sure there are several folks who'd be willing to lend a hand anyway they could.

Indeed, and that is why I think we have such a good Society / community. People are ready, and able, but more willing, to aid in the ways they can... plus, we've got lots of IT specialists, so if we need something technical, someone can do something about it.

Fiff, I have a number of people here waiting to get in. If you need any more assitance just give me a shout. I'm going to turn the website management over to web dude in the next few days.

Thanks for all the hard work!

Forgive me if the answer to this question can be found elsewhere, but what exactly are the benefits of becoming a society member?

To date the benefits have included unanswered e-mails and a whole lot of nothing.

As for the future, well, I have some ideas, including the contests mentioned in my announcement at the top of this forum.

Once Fiff catches up, you'll get your name/title inscribed in The Doomsday Book on the Society webpage at the TLG site!!

I'm nearly caught up. I need to enter some new members, and then I need to do some work to my database. My original design was this beautiful complex thing, and I scrapped it and went back to the basics. I'm going to fill in some of those complexities now that things are pretty stable.

I'll get a list to Steve and he can get it to the webmaster (or I can, either way.)
