We need to discuss this with the members of the club .The people of the anime club will have plenty of time to make a decision on this issue. I believe that we should present them the information this week. First we tell them our opinions then tell them that they can go on the forum when they have a little free time. They will have plenty of time to read the thread and decide on their answer. They won’t even need half an hour to read these posts. Then next week we put it to vote and see what they think.

Saying they won’t have enough time to read this and make a decision is ridiculous. All of us seem to have time to do it, and we are putting far more time into it than they will need to to make a proper decision.

Debt will only result if the officers are complete idiots, and I would like to think that we are not. Sure we may have to do a little budgeting but that’s nothing that we cannot handle. If we have to cut spending in the area of fancy things then we do, the world will not end. Likewise if we need to have another fundraiser to get a few extra dollars then we can. While fundraisers don’t always bring in wads of cash they will always bring in some because if you can’t get someone to buy a cookie there is something wrong with you. Debt can be avoided if we try to avoid it. Barbwire, The same goes for those who come five years in the future. If they are tight for money they will find another ways to supply it. Don’t worry about those people five years in the future if they have a problem with money, or anything else, it is their own fault not ours.

We should find other ways to make money in case the art sale does fail. As mentioned earlier we have expanded into baked goods this is a good alternative in case we either can’t get any art or the art doesn’t sell, because come on who doesn’t want a cookie. If we have one or two of these art and/or bake sales a year, or whatever else we decide to do to make money, we should be able to collect enough funds for all the great pleasures in life. If we need a few extra dollars for something fancy the officers can pitch in, to be paid back at a later time. If somehow a lack of money becomes an extreme problem I think that there might be other issues than the art/bake sale not working.

In response to Barbwire’s last paragraph:

As mascot I would be responsible for the oh-no hour contests. If a contest winner suddenly decide to leave and not contact any one about oh-no hour I would make sure that we have something to watch. I would try to contact them failing that I would either contact the person who got second, third, etc. in the contest or choose it myself if I had to. I will take care of whatever happens in regard to Oh-No hour, because it’s my job, as mascot, to do that. If they decide that this club isn’t for them oh-well, they don’t know what their missing. Also, we don’t want people to come because they feel they have to get their money’s worth. While more people coming to club is nice, we want them to come because they like anime and enjoy the company of fellow otaku. (At the risk of sounding cheesy)A club is about FRIENDSHIP not debt, and while paying for membership may entice some people to stay, it also makes some people who can’t participate feel left out. By removing the dues you are allowing people to participate, which in turn encourages them to stay because they want to come back.

Sadly I do not remember that was the first fortune that I opened that night.

Fortune: ignore previous cookie.
