Meeting 1: 9/16/2010 - Talked about the upcoming Halloween contest.

- Talked about the Halloween contest, although that’s done and over with, I think similar contests (if at all possible) might be neat and since we have the outline from the Halloween contest, there’s something to work off of and tweak if necessary.

Meeting 2: 9/30/2010 - We talked about community games and contests. Things that could be played out on the forums.

- Talked about more community games and such: live quizzes or something like that, photo hunts, etc

- Viktor suggest member contests, his example being: "Eden Fantasys Sports Jersey/Sweater Contest" Where he challenges the community to come up with designs for a sports jersey for Eden.

- Viktor also suggest something like a monthly question thing, one where you get multiple choices, and you have to get the right answer to get the points. But the question should deal with Safety. This promotes safety, and gets people to research safety. Maybe for points, maybe for fun

- A contest where we play “guess the whatever”, jar filled with something, we guess, winner gets contents of jar or one of whatever it was filled with.

- brought up contributor of the month

- Viktor mentioned a community art center of sorts. Something where all the members of the community who are artistically inclined can post up their works. Sam brought up maybe having a language and arts section where we could include the art portion with the writing portion.

Meeting 3: 10/14/10 - Summary: Discussed Contributor of the Month, and a props/shoutout type program.

- Alicia suggested a “20 questions” type game

- Worked on the contributor of the month thing more

- Lauren, Alicia, and Sam (aka Jul!a) talked about trying to coordinate and run a ‘prop’ thing, where if one contributor wanted to give “props” to another (something as simple as a picture taken with a shout out to another person) they could take a picture, email it to one of us running it, and we could coordinate all the entries and post them monthly. Submitters would remain anonymous.
