Thu 17 May 2007
There's a "clothing order":/society/events/details/774 up on the website. You can get T-shirts, Sweatshirts, Polo shirts, Hoodies and Fleeces - an unprecedented variety! We have also changed suppliers, so the quality should be higher. Clothing should also arrive before the BFL - so alumni members should have no problem collecting their orders.

You can do so on the "Website Account":/society/members/website page in the 'Members' section. Go go go.

Wed 21 Feb 2007
Hi! LAN seating plan is at "http://www.uwcs.co.uk/society/events/seating/717":http://www.uwcs.co.uk/society/events/seating/717, for what it's worth. I'm afraid it's the same system as last time, and thus totally unsuited for what we'll be up to: I'm afraid I really don't know what the table layout will be. For now, however, can you update yourselves on it into approximately 6 columns of 5 ish, or 5 columns of 6, or some similar re-arrangement, and we'll see how we go when we do the setup. The bi…

Recent MySQL Problems on Molotov
Tue 13 Feb 2007
MySQL should now be fully functioning again if you've only been using MyISAM tables (the default). If you've been using InnoDB tables, your database should still exist, however you may have to restore data/table layouts from backups. If you don't have a recent backup or don't have access to your database, please contact techteam@uwcs.co.uk.

Tue 13 Feb 2007
Our second LAN of term is now up on the events page. Note that as we are in a smaller room and we're not sure of power requirements, signups for this event will be limited to 30 at first. Once we know what the room can take, we may bring them up to 40, but it seems unlikely that we will be able to fit many more.
