A long but fruitful group meeting last night was. Now it would be great if people could stop straying off topic until a meeting finishes, but that might be asking too much. Still… look at it on the positive side: the faster the official business for the meeting is done, the faster we can get to random discussions.
The most important decision made at this meeting was definitely the name of our now no-long-tiny game development group. With consensus from all and approval from most, we now declare ourselves the Major Arcana gamedev group (or Marcana for short from me).
As you probably noticed, the blog and wiki has been moved to a new domain name as part of all this, courtesy of Sajuuk’s hosting account. At some point we’ll probably work on a main page for major-arcana.org, but for now I don’t really see a reason. Maybe when we get closer to pushing a product out the door =P.
We could also use a group logo… just to toss that out there. It’s definitely not a priority need in any way, but definitely something nice for our creativity to chew on when it’s bored.
On another note, I’d like to announce the team changes. Bad news out of the way first, Narika has officially handed in her resignation and left us, thus depriving us of a ghost member.
However, we did manage to acquire two enthusiastic new members: Dokper and Garmana. Per will be helping Honya with CG coloring and shading, and hopefully with editing once he catches up with the story and get a hang of the characters. Mana is our new composer, and we’re all thankful here for his support, particularly me who never thought this project would gain a composer (lol).
But the execution of the punchline is all about the timing!
Let it be on the record that I, Citrus, came up with our group’s name in its final, official state.
This, and the fact that we even have an official group name, is doing wonders for my sense of pride.
Remember that pride is a sin =P
