Teams (organizers only)
Heeey, it's me again, sorry!!! XD;;;;
This message is for the volunteering organizers only. I recommend that all organizers track all the posts on arigatou_g if you can, so we won't have to repeat the same things to each other over and over.
Well, Kellie (our leadah) bumped my status up to a maintainer ^0^; before she went to bed, and since I'll be really busy for the next few days (and pretty much incognito, sorry!) and Kellie will also be mostly away this coming Sat. and Sun., I figured we should get the balls rolling ASAP.
It has been suggested to divide the organizers into teams specific for different tasks, and I think that's a great idea.
So, I came up with these groups for now.
-Technical (e.g. webiste creation, etc.)
- PR (pimping of this project throughout the net. YT video included.)
- Messages (e.g. screening of messages, translation of some languages unfamiliar to G)
I will make a thread for each of these groups below, so whoever is volunteering for the specific team, please leave your name in the applicable thread, and you can also discuss if you want a sub-leader for each group (You can either volunteer or recommend someone else to be the sub-leader).
If you can think of any other teams other than the three I mentioned, let me know.
Once we have the names lined up, I suggest that each team start creating and submitting posts here to talk specifically amongst yourselves within the team about your individual projects. This will allow you all to keep moving forward without having to consult everybody else on everything. ^^
The subject lines for these posts should be easy to recognize by including, for example, "Website (organizers only)" or "PR (organizers only)" (or anything more specific). If you don't want other people to leave random comments, you might want to lock the posts so only members can see it.
But remember, let's keep this simple, so we can do this fast. I've noticed that so many of us in this LJ fandom got email responses from G yesterday/today, which tells me that he's really wanting a response from all of us overseas fans like....NOW. XD
If we want to create an elaborate website dedicated to G going long-term in general, we can perhaps do that, too, especially if this project is a success. But for now, let's concentrate on getting our appreciation for the overseas tour communicated to him quickly. Thanks!! ^^
(Do you see my mood? *points down* XD)
EDIT: To avoid confusion and random posts, I have given posting access to only the people who left their names here. (I have not consulted this with the leader yet, though.)
