Greetings, Continuuees

So, England's Euro-dreams are dashed again on the rocks of a penalty = shoot-out and amidst the controversy of a referee's decision. Never = mind - soothe your aching hearts (or jubilant ones, if you're not = English!) with the comforting thought that Continuum's only a month = away, and that its referees never make bad calls.

Down to business - and we have a few very important announcements and = updates.

Sign-Up Deadline

You MUST register for Continuum by the 8th July at the latest. The = final list of attendees is sent to university on the 9th, and whilst we = can accept registrations after this date, it causes no-end of admin = hassle. There's still room to make your booking, so, if you've been = putting it off, thinking it's okay to turn-up on the day (it's not), or = waiting to celebrate England's Euro victory by signing for a really, = really good gaming con, now's the time to act. Remember - 8th July.

It's very disappointing, but = ultimately the take-up of places didn't reach the level required for = running the game. We'd like to offer our apologies to all those who did = sign-up for Cardolani, and assure you that we did everything we could to = keep the game alive. Sadly, it wasn't to be. =20

=20

The committee is looking at ways in which to occupy the slot Cardolani = now leaves, which means that there'll be some significant timetable = changes to come. More details as they happen.

Polo Shirts

The committee will be sporting incredibly stylish Continuum polo shirts =
over the course of the weekend, provoking all kinds of sartorial envy.  =
But it needn't be that way!  You can join the 'In Crowd' and sport your =
own polo shirt. The cost is to be determined, but it'll be reasonable = and the shirt high-quality, with a discreet and attractive Continuum = 2004 logo. Although shirts will be on sale at the con, why wait? Let = Darran Sims know now if you're interested, including preferred size = although they're likely to be Gamer Large and XL, as standard) and = arrangements will be made.
