Haven't seen anything in a bit about this.  We're there any applicants for DC?

Hello Shrouded Radiance,

It doesn't appear that there have been any applicants to take over the DC position for MD-001-D. 

I will need to take steps to shutter the domain if there is not a volunteer to maintain the position.

I took on the job of making sure the reports were handled.  (I dropped the ball the last few months but can catch up ASAP.) Since the peak of the pandemic seems to have passed, we can actually start having conversations about live games again, but that does require we have people willing to step forward to the officer positions.  I am willing to help anyone with teaching or mentoring, as are others I suspect, but this is something we should all discuss as members.

Out of sheer curiosity, even though I am no longer a member up there, it seems a lot of Domains are switching to Discord to facilitate communication, any thought given to this?  I would love to see you guys back and work out some ties if you start playing again.

We do have a Discord for the domain.

Right now it seems like most people have been busy with other matters along with a lack of volunteers.

Without someone to step up as coordinator, we are in dire straits.  Brian helped keep us afloat (for about twice as long as he initially volunteered for) while I took up the DST spot, but at this point, there is very little pressure to keep the domain, from the domain.  We did switch to discord back in 2020, ran a bunch of stuff, but most folks burned out over the first year of the pandemic.  Last summer Brian and I briefly got folks back together live, but Delta/Omicron broke that momentum fairly hard.

My impression is we could rouse maybe a dozen people on a good day for a game if we ran one. We'd have to build up from a deep hole we are now in, and there are a lot of people who have decided they don't want to be in the MES as a national org, and won't be back regardless of who is running things here.   Any growth has to come from new people. If we don't even have the energy to provide a DC, we certainly don't have the energy to recruit.  

I would be very happy to be wrong, but this is my understanding of the current situation.

Hello Shrouded Radiance,

I'm writing to check in via email with the domain.

At the moment I am looking for someone to step up to take over the DC position and keep up on reporting for the domain. 

It's not just about the reporting though. I've had a few emails from people seeking games in our region and it's the responsibility of the DC to be the first point of contact for potential new membership. Returning members who may have stepped away while life was uncertain over the last couple of years will be looking to the DC's to find out where to go to meet up with old friends.

If I don't hear from someone by the time my report is due on April 20th I will be reporting that Shrouded Radiance is temporarily closed.

Would someone be so kind as to send a fresh invite to the SR Discord?
