I heartily recommend that anyone interested in a committee position should give it a go. It's a great way to gain experience running events, and looks good on the old CV.

Read on for more information on the committee positions up for grabs, and details of the AGM.

Our treasurer will be on hand to provide details of our finances to anyone who wants to know.

UPDATE: Due to a preforming arts festival taking place in The Space all of this week tonight's meeting and AGM will be held in the Snack Bar upstairs.

Our last allnight event of before Q-Con will be held on the weekend of the 9th of may in The Space, Queen's Students' Union.

There will be console game tournaments, and other tabletop gaming events running all weekend. With 24 hours to play - you should try a little bit of everything!

• Where? The Space, Queen's Students' Union.
• How Much? £8 for the entire weekend. Over 18s only.

As with the last 24 hour event held in February, there will be no official PC LAN or tuck-shop. You are free however to bring a PC/laptop and play at no additional cost. As for the tuck-shop, we recommend you stock up from the SU Shop before it closes.

If you want to help setup, the committee will be there from 9.30am. Any help will be much appreciated.

Members of Dragonslayers were given free entry to take part in UDE sanctioned Yu-Gi-Oh Summer cup 2008 events. Each winner of the weekly tournament received an invite to the Summer Cup Final held in May of last year.

10 duelists received the opportunity to become the Summer Cup Champion 2008 and the eventual winner was Paul Graham.

Below is a pic of Paul reeving his Trophy from UDE representative Duncan Tang at this years Nationals finals in Dublin.
