I think there would be enough 'new' SAFFers (especially if recruitment continues on current form) to fill the gaps. At the end of the day ... it is each individual's choice as to which team they represent. happy

Addie is quite right. I cant see the private sections of the TAG boards, but in the public area there wasnt much of a response. Jabba and I had to join them to get the number to 10, but only just.
Trust me, you didn't miss much. There wasn't a huge response in the private areas of the TAG boards. Most of the work was done talking to people directly. Pretty much 90% or more of active TAG-SA members these days are active in SAFF as well.

And that in it's self is a potential problem

In Fact... my count is 3 TAG SA members aren't members of the SAFF

Okay, I'll downgrade my 90% estimate wink

But you're right. We can only get to all the TAG via the TAG forum, but in the end we didn't end up with any TAG-only team members this year. Next year might be different.

And on the subject of relay themes, even sticking to the Star Wars theme there are things we can do to make us more cohesive as a team.

Jabba suggested, that like one of the other teams, if we get get registered early enough we can do up the relay shirts, maybe screen printing SAFF logos or "Using the Force to find a cure" or similar on the back.

No one at the relay cares if we are SAFF or 501st. At these events perhaps the separate group names should be less to the fore, and simply highlight the fact that we're a bunch of fans joining the cause.

I was involved with a group that made a 20 foot high geodesic dome a few years back that would make a wonderful Death Star...pity it collapsed.
laugh You're not selling me on the idea.

Whatever we do, remember we have to be able to transport it to Victor and get it all set up in about an hour. And it shouldn't blow away.

.. has visions of a 20 foot Death Star obliterating all other campsites .... true to form but maybe not too sociable ..

.. has another vision of using a Swiss Ball painted up and rolled around the oval as a baton .. thinking

Now THAT would be good. We could use the 20 foot death star as a baton. "OVERTAKE US NOW! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Lets just say that rain + tarps (no 'leakage' holes) + inflexible metal joints (as opposed to flexible thick rubber) was not good. Lucky the $20000+ of audio equipment underneath was okay. It did survive about half a dozen raves, several test assembles/disassembles, and a trip to the Victorian countryside where it lasted a 7 day NYE 2000 party with 10000+ people present.

Anyways, back on topic...Kennards and Rennicks do have some really solid marquee type things that I've hired before for Pedal Prix events at Murray Bridge (to house 50ish people). Quite expensive, but I'm sure SAFF wouldn't need anything that big. There's also some decent small marquee options (anyone going to Head of the River on Saturday at West Lakes will see plenty) that aren't too much at all to hire (or even buy). They open up really easily and are pretty straightforward to transport (ute or 4wd). My work has several in fact....hmmmm.... wink

FWIW, I think the city Relay for Life is on this weekend, I'm going to swing by if I get a chance (is it at Santos?).

But I really like geodesic domes...must investigate further...

Just my 2 cents worth on the whole 501st, SAFF and HP teams, i would be up for taking 2 costumes anyway, one for SAFF/501st and one for HP.

Not really fussed what team i would be in either.

SAFF = Star Wars

If you want to involve Harry Potter with this, join the Harry Potter Forums & ask if they'd like to be involved.


I'd rather have a squid jag inserted in a private place than water down the SAFF participation with Harry Potter carp.... angry

The 501st will rise to the occasion next year.

Really glad to hear that about the 501st. I hope that we can get a 501st team AND a SAFF team next year. If we had a third team with SAFF members for Harry Potter, it'd not be under the SAFF banner which is what I was trying to say the other night.

I just hope that SAFF will still have enough members to field a team if a number of people defect to the HP team. I wouldn't wish to see less than the 20 SW costumed characters like this year. It robs the event of the colour & vibrancy that we bring every year. But like I said, if people want to field a HP team, they can, but SAFF IS SW.
