Housing screwage
Jun. 13th, 2008 08:08 pm[OK, so minutes weren't "next". They'll be soon. Whatever.]
I think I'll just copypaste the email I sent to both mailing lists:
Hello all,
Sorry for the double post, but this is kind of important. If you are living in an apartment here this summer, please help us store our boxes.
A large number of people this year have gotten screwed by the trunk room's closing at 7 PM. Also, they apparently decided to actually enforce the 5-box limit this year, catching us returning students unaware.
We are currently doing what we can to petition Housing to allow us more time (and, hopefully, more boxes), but in the meantime, our safest bet seems to be to store it with those of you who will be here.
Youlian is coordinating this; if you can help store boxes, or have boxes you need to store, please email him ([address omitted])
Thank you! We don't have much else we can do right now.

Yes, I am among those screwed. We'll see if anyone responds. Or if Housing does anything. (And if they need to pay someone... well, we can pay. There's enough of us that when the cost is split among all of us, it's certainly worth it. But that requires someone willing to work. Ideally, they would just say, "We don't need someone watching it; you guys can watch each other." but that seems pretty damn unlikely.
Meanwhile, trunk room is closed, so perhaps I should go party or something? :P
(Games I'm brining home and thus still accessible to me: AGoT, Duel of Ages, Nexus Ops, TS, Pow Wow, Traders, Set, Coloretto, Icehouse pieces & Tarot deck, Sticheln deck, Take 6 deck, ordinary deck of cards.)
Also, I accidentally electrically shocked myself today?
