RHGC 2006

Just came from the General Assembly of RHGC (Rolling Hills Gaming Club). It also doubled as a belated birthday bash for Lito. The original Klasmeyts have stepped down from taking on the club's big responsibilities - real life, it seemed, weighed heavier for most of us.

In place of Ricky, long-time veteran, Freddie Yu, became the club's new chairperson. With it, Freddie made clear of several points:

• Club activities and records will become more transparent to ALL club members.
• The "gap" caused by the recent friction, will be bridged over.
• The club will focus on various small cells (notably the more popular venues like NG Alabang, NG Galleria, NG Glorietta, Hobby Haven and Pitshop).
• At least one tournament per month will ideally be held, and at small pointage so as to accommodate new players.
• Scheduled tourneys with the venues mentioned.

Personally, the change should be refreshing. I can concentrate on having fun playing, and just help out with as best I can without interfering with work too much. Once a month tourneys should also be good. More time for me to paint my KDL, Necrons and Khador. More time to work on terrain at home. More time to actually work ON my home. Maybe develop my portfolio website, too.

Right now, RHGC has a direction which isn't far from what the original Klass envisioned. I hope more we get more players this year. And everyone enjoys their games more.

I have expressed strong loyalties to da Shak, RHGC and MWB. And I will extend my support to HGR even if I am not a regular at Galleria anymore; and even to Alabang.

We are still a community after all, and the community's success depends on each of us.

They might do so, Garr. Then again they might not. The question therein lies if all of you guys will support it or not.

Ah yes. Point taken. Time truthfully will tell.

Also, to react on a post from Romy's blog since he left early:

When you left, there were two tables of WM and WH playing side by side. And inquiries from Alabang players as well as Galleria players. Lito allowed us to play (as Pork asked his permission before doing so). It only leads to the fact that disproves that RHGC is against WM.

Lito did not announce it last assembly but I hear that he will provide for another forum for any other miniature game out there (Great Wide Open). In case that may lead to be an expense that's too much to handle, I can provide the forum for WM.

In any case, anyone saying RHGC is against WM is wrong. Period.
