    ok, since sara and i aren't gonna be at the meeting it'd probably be best if those who are interested in putting up 5-10 flyers just go ahead and print them themselves. if you need more than you can easily print on your own, or you have a high-profile area that would benefit from some larger posters let me know and i can get some printed up at work.

    Mike, I'd be more than happy to print that few here at my house then. :) If I can think of an area or two that might benefit from a larger one I'll let you know (maybe the public library or some local bookstores?). :D

    And Eric, I have to go into Wal-Mart tomorrow morning/afternoon to get stuff to take on my trip so I'll look around to see if they got the poster up right quick. I gotta make the trek back to electronics anyway to get new headphones since mine punked out on me after...5 years. [face_thinking]

    Starting Monday (it's midterm week folks give me a break) I will be putting up flyers in the music building, SPEA and Woodburn Hall on campus. That will give the fans a week to read them and decide to come.

    I will also be personally handing out "invites" (the posters) to people I know who are Star Wars fans and inviting them to come and check out the HA (one of the AI's in Hundred espically he was at the midnight movie release and the all night Target sit in for the Vader figure but he came at 7 instead of 1 am ;)).

    And the Luke costume came yesterday and is now in my posession so I will be there in costume.

    Perhaps at the Friday meeting those of us planning to put flyers up around campus should plan where we're going to place them, since a few of us stay within the same area. That way we insure a more coehesive coverage, instead of all our flyers in the SPEA/BUS/Woodburn area. ;)

    NOTE: The big bullentin board in front of the commons in the IMU is a good place to put up posters. ;)

    I was at Walmart today Eric and didn't see any posters. Though I haven't seen any posters around campus, i.e. IMU.

    I didn't put mine up today since everything was nasty and wet, I decided that there would be the risk of more rain (which there was) and it would be better to wait until the next day. So, the fliers and tape are all packed and ready to go tomorrow. Gave some for my mother to put up and her place of business, and a few people stopped and asked her about it. Sounds like they are coming.

    I have started putting together questions for the trivia contest. I'm going to try to make up 100 or so just to cover ourselves. They will be typed on the computer and put onto notecards so they're easy to read for whoever is doing the reading... yeah. If you have a specific question you want to be included, PM it to me. Otherwise I'm just going to use the cards that go along with the Trivial Pursuit game.

    Re: prizes for the trivia game. Maybe someone should check out Factory Card Outlet or places like that for stickers or other smallish Star Wars related prizes.

    Campus posters around the library end of campus will be going up tomorrow between 9:20 and 10 am. I have personally handed out a few posters myself and of course there is the blitz this Friday. I think we'll have a nice crowd. Keep plugging it where you can though!

    Yeah... feel free to discuss amongst yourselves. I'm going to go have dinner.

    no, no bad feelings. Everything is going to be fine. Fine fine fine...or else.

    I think we have all the prizes covered now, except for the DVD which obviously has to wait. Should we maybe like make a little certificate (like...on Word) to give to the two winners? or no...I can make one very easily.

    And fliers are going up...TODAY, Sara and I are putting them up.

    Molly and I have put up posters in the business buildings and SPEA as well as the main library. They are few and far between but they are there. Since our name is on them we were hesitant to put them some places, afraid of bad publicity.

    Tomorrow will be the Union, Woodburn and Ballentine.

    EDIT: Thursday morning- As of 9:30 today Wal-Mart still had not put up posters that I could see. I even travelled back to the electronics dept. and nothing. I posted something in the Bloomington Livejournal and because we're doing it at Wal-Mart alot of people have said they'd come if it wasn't there. I tried to explain that BB was... well we all know but whatever. I have one guy coming I know for sure because I pester him every day about it. ;)
