From the Director's Desk...

We are working to make sure all of our records are updated, and in return we'd like swift responses to the letters we send out and would also like everyone to make sure their treasuries are as up to date as possible. As it takes a staggering amount of time to hold the races for you every month, we are considering checking on updated treasuries, requiring them to be within 3 months of current for those who want to race or bet the following season. As treasury accountability is part of the honor agreement everyone signed, this should not be an issue.
 

All independents should have received a letter on status. If not, please send back your name with the following information marked:

___  I am continuing as an active independent member of the QCC.
___  Please remove me from the QCC listings.
___  Even though I am away often, I wish to remain an independent member.
___  I have since joined a member QCC House, and am no longer eligible for Independent status.
Those who do not reply will be contacted only once more before being 'archived' in our files.

 
 
Certain events have not been paid out with these checks as we have not received attendance from the hosts, they will be issued as we receive them.

 

 

    The Tavern survey results were compiled and I wrote up a new Tavern Guideline based off what the majority of people voted for after a bit of discussion with the Council members.  You can read them here!

    Basically summed up, the entire system was simplified, no more rolling dice - if you own a tavern, you simply turn in two logs showing tavern activity between the first and twenty-ninth of each month and you'll qualify to be paid out a nifty 500 qc for the month.  The payout will appear on the first payout of the month (this one, for example!).  In addition to that, Houses may have three Taverns, while Independents may have one, but all will be paid 500 qc each, rather than having the vast differences in Primary and Secondary earnings.  We had a really terrific response back on the survey, I'd like to thank all of you members who stepped up to the plate and turned them back in!  Those of you who participated each earn 500 qc for your Taverns, while each individual who participated also earns 100 qc, regardless if they own a Tavern or not as our way of saying, "THANK YOU!!"

    Earlier this month I sent out a Merchant Listings mailing to see who was still actively keeping their shops open, as well as if anyone wants anything in their listing altered or updated.  After March 15th, we'll begin the overhaul to remove any inactive members who didn't respond - so please be sure to submit your listings!  Any updates should be marked "UPDATE!" in the areas to be updated so I can see easily what needs to be changed, if anything.  Please write me if you would like to delete your listings, also!

    News in Events?  Does anyone have any Events they'd like to do?  If you need help, feel free to drop me a message!  I'm always here to help out anyone who needs it!  We'd love to see more Houses and Independents hosting Events, honestly - anything to encourage more interactions!  The Valentine's Joust was a great success, everyone who participated did wonderful on their runs, and the Kalmindor Alliance proved to be great Hosts!  Kudos to everyone included!  Temporarily gone, but not forgotten - a QCC Mixer is planned to be held on Thursday the 22nd at 9pm EST, every person who attends will receive 100 qc as per the usual Mixer pay-out!  Door prizes for each person, and maybe a few games will be played if anyone feels up to it!  We hope to see you there!

    Dear Friends and QCC Members,
 
    As part of the annual listings clean-up, we'd like to keep your Merchant, Tavern, and Stable listings updated and spiffy! 
 
    Please go through the merchant listings on the QCC site and make sure that all your URLs, Business Owner/Email, House Affilliation, and Descriptions are up-to-date!  Fill in all the information, and if you'd like to change any of the descriptions, please write "UPDATE!" then write in your new description so I can make the necessary changes!   Please be sure to keep your list of businesses, taverns, and stables in alphabetical order to ensure proper filing!  If you'd like any businesses removed, please let me know which listings to take off, too!  If you have a Stable and you want to add a description beyond "stable", or your business extends beyond the racing aspect, please feel free to write your own in, too!
 
    Any unresponsive businesses after March 15th will be contacted once more before being relegated to inactive status and removed from the listings.  Members who delete this email will have their businesses removed, as it indicates a disinterest in continuing with the QCC's Merchant, Tavern, and Stables aspect of the forum.
 
    Thank you so much, everyone!  We really appreciate your understanding and patience, as well as your efforts to keep the QCC a great and interesting place to play!  Please take care, and we look forward to hearing from you!
 
    ~ Madje-mun and co.
 
Examples - please include all your information even if nothing has changed:
 
Business Name: Make-Believe Business!
House: Independent
URL:
www.lalala.com
Business Owner: UPDATE! Madje Askavinge
Business Email: UPDATE!  askavinge@aol.com
Descripton: UPDATE!  I was going to put an actual description here, but it's better if you just pretend there's a serious detailing of a make-believe business here.  You guys get the idea!
 
Business Name: The Wet Feather
House: Independent
URL:
www.lalala.com
Business Owner: Madje Askavinge
Business Email: UPDATE! askavinge@aol.com
Descripton:  Beautify your home and garden with fountains in a range of sizes, decorum, specialty lighting, and ponds constructed by Madje and his crew of handsome fellows! Koi, turtles, and frogs are usually available through out the year.
 
    This is much easier than re-sending in a merchant registration form for each and every business, to be sure!  We can get them all done in one hit!  If House members would like to arrange to send in their business listing updates to their Leaders, then have their Leaders send in a compiled report, that would be really great too!

ABOUT OUR MAILSTRINGS

QCC Voluntary Mailstring

This mailing list is made up of QCC members who have consented to be on it. The purpose of this list is to allow business announcements and flyers to be sent to those groups and individuals that welcome the information and intend to distribute it to their members. This mailing list does not replace any mailing lists compiled by individual businesses or event hosts from their own patrons and customers.

Being a member of the QCC does not automatically put you on this list! It is by request only. Sign yourself up if you want to receive Voluntary mailings.

Mail List Alert

If you receive mail list alerts for any of the QCC mail lists, please forward them to council@questcoin.com. Sometimes when we are updating the mail lists, an SN gets put back into the signup list. That auto-generates a privacy alert that gets mailed to you. If you'll forward those alerts to the council, we'll know you got it. It was most likely triggered by something we did; but if we didn't do it, we'll certainly want to know. :)

QCC Member Mail List

Any QCC members who wish to be on the QCC Members' Mail List to receive QCC Updates directly from the Council should send a note to council@questcoin.com to be added to the list. This does not take the place of the Voluntary Mail List. Sign-up for the Voluntary Mail List is still self service and you'll find the sign-up page here:  QCC Voluntary Mailstring

**Mail List Notes: We don't care if the addresses on the mail lists are for RP characters or not. If you have AIM characters and you want to put a non-RP address on the mail lists to get the QCC notices, that's fine with us.
