Thread: aa+ ICDU Association

Longtom, Matt and I briefly crossed the subject at evo.

Who is for formally turning the icdu clan into an association of its own.

What this means is that we can be a serious clan, with ability to fund raise and find sponsors.

How will this advantage us.....get some hardware for the clan, ie gigabit switches and icdu servers, that the icdu clan can use for its own lans, and also setup at dga events and evo's

So, this thread will be about putting up some ideas on the structure, and ideas on what we can do, chase up and plan for.

I'll start off with a few ideas:

Seek sponsorship from pauls. ie get them to pay for shirts etc, provide us with free ice coffee at each lan.
what they can get from us...advertising + we could take alot of iced coffess to the lan and sell them for them, ie we could organise for pauls to provide us with a stocked fridge, and we take turns selling items from it. We could start out a relationship with pauls by simply selling thier products intitally. Maybe even taking profits from the sales.

What we can plan for
a 24 port gigabit switch, and 1000mb pci cards to go with it, and a sersious icdu game server, and an ftp server.

Other ideas,
We create a professional looking icdu website. I am happy to host the site.
We could form some kind of sales and service organisation from within icdu, utilising our members to sell and service computers on icdu behalf.

we have alot of people in our clan that have very good connections, ala burky

we also have some very clever and resourcefull people

we have some damn good game players

we could put this all to a common good

i have connections at pauls

thats peter.. but what about the rest of the caln what do they have..

but yes we did talk about this.. it was a good idea . have our own cs and dc servers and ftp and shirts..
mabey we can even go do south and play

I can organise to have the ICDU clan to be setup and registered as a social association, and then open up a bank account in its name

We would have to elect a presidente, secretary and treasurer.

another thing

we could take over the competitions from unseen, and organise the comps ourselves, even if we run our own comps, we can also put up the prizes, heck, we could even setup the comps properly by running a yearly tournament, ie with trophies and ladders etc
