TGS Week SWOTVAC
==============
And with that, another semester of TGS activities has come to an end. The board games have been individually all tucked into bed, the polyhedral dice have been tucked in in sets because I'm being told too much of the budget was going towards beds. All of our DMs will soon be put into cryostasis, preserving them for next semester's D&D.
If you're already missing the weekly events (I know I am), then try out this ancient ritual that never fails:
1. Set up your favourite board game as if there were a standard amount of players with you
2. Play the game, rotating repeatedly around the table taking a turn for each set up player
3. Experience mixed pride and disappointment as you simultaneously win and lose the game
This ritual doesn't summon or do anything really, but it is a way to pass the time.
See you next semester! (Or maybe before...)

🎓DM Training Expression of Interest🐲

When: Winter Break
Over the winter break we will be running DM training for anybody who wants to join the illustrious ranks of our TGS DMs and run sessions at our weekly events. This will involve being paired with an elder DM, running a couple sessions, and getting some feedback on each one.
If you would like to participate in DM Training, please fill out the form below ASAP! There's lots more info about how it will be run and what you need to do in the form, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask one of the committee members or Gorg. Actually, maybe just stick with the committee.

Together with a collection of other university's board game clubs, known as VIBE, we are putting on a very special event for you all. A mini announcement will be out soon with full details, but you can expect board games and RPGs that you love, as well as some special activities such as trivia and a murder mystery.
The event will be on Wednesday the 1st of July and will be paid with food provided. As this is a bigger event than usual TGS events, ticket prices will reflect this: look out for more details coming very soon.

❄TGS Over the Break 📅

If you find yourself missing TGS events over long breaks then I have fantastic news! Over the break, we will be running an online games night. Come along to play your favourite Jackbox games and maybe some of your most available online board games. The winner will receive the grand prize of a special role just for them.
More details will be released closer to when this ends up being held, so keep an eye on the Discord server.
