Talk Folk - 19:30 CET [Sun] 01 May 2011

Post by fer » Tue Apr 26, 2011 9:01 pm

Actually, this isn't complicated at all:

Comrade Mrs Fer is having a baby in late June, so from mid-May onwards it makes sense for me hand over some (or perhaps all) of my Folk-related responsibilities to other comrades. That way, Folk gets to continue with day-to-day support from good, dependable people like you (and not an even-more-flakey-and-sleep-deprived me). I'm still going to try and play as often as possible, make missions, and annoy you in Skype.

Speaking of which, and speaking of speaking, at comrade Tigershark's suggestion we're holding a discussion about this, and everyone is invited:
Just in case you're wondering what tasks are up for grabs, the list I put together is at the bottom of this post. Meantime, I hope to see some of you there. Remember, it doesn't take a huge amount to keep Folk afloat, but it doesn't happen by magic. If you value our fight for the collectivisation farms, have a think about what you can do, comrade!

I am shocked to see that the Talk is schedueled on May Day itself, when all comrades should be fighting on the barricades in the name of Che Guevera and The Revolution. :hist101:

For this reason, I cannot attend.

We're only talking in the hour before the usual session start (20:30 CET). After that, we're back to fighting! :hist101:

I should be there but maybe a bit late due to issues surrounding domestic chaos (we have builders working in the house and the place is a mess etc )
