God, the forum has really been dead the last week or so.
I do hope that you're not all this quiet on the new forum when it starts being touted. By the way, as a special sort of indiesoc presale, it's been decided to open the forum a couple of days before freshers arrive so that you can snap up all the best names (since you can't change your display name on this forum, you're stuck with the user name you're given, hence sadly Chris, you won't be able to cycle through a list of names). But yes, I thought that you'd appreciate being able to claim "John" or "Simon" before some skanky freshers came in and did so. I think you're all going to like the new forum, it's oh-so-very swish. The layout's similar but some things are changing. But you're all clever and you'll work it out ;D

Do I stick with Tom, or do I go for Welshie, or even Welsh?

Do I stick with Tom, or do I go for Welshie, or even Welsh? I suspect committee members will be asked to keep to their real names, me thinks...

bagsi the indie_schmindie tag
also, on the subject of next year, i've got an idea to float around in front of the committee... how about changing the name slightly for the new year to "the indie and alternative music society", or something along the lines... i thought i'd voice that seeing as you were complaining that the group is a tad clique-y earlier in the year... maybe that would open it up a bit, seeing as people these days see "indie" as arctic munkehs n kaiser chief n razorlight n such... whereas this society incorporates a wide range fo tastes....

we are going to be be advertising ourselves as the the indie and alternative society next year, but were are going to keep the official name as the "Indie Society" because we decided that it has a better ring to it among other reasons.

Yeah, funny you mention it I_S, we decided on changing it a few months ago but I guess we were keeping it secret or something! Nevermind! It is better for me too, because I have just realised I haven't listened to anything indie for months...
