Board Update November 2024
Come read the second Board update this year :D
Hey Linkies,
Winter is coming and we will be prepared with a whole lot of events and activities to keep y’all warm. But for now, let’s instead take a look back at November and discuss some of the things that happened in Link!
WORLDS WATCH PARTY
Starting off the month strong, some Linkies gathered together and grouped up with our friends of Dorans, DSEA Ignite, WSG Paragon, and Blueshell to experience the LoL Worlds finals together in Nijmegen for an unforgettable experience! We are looking forward to plan more events with our sister esports associations and this was a great start! :]
FTOTM
This was followed up by another cozy FTOTM. Sadly our special guest in Maurits fell sick and could not attend, however we are happy that ha more than made up for it by joining us in our CoBo! Oh, about that...
OUR COBO!
Just a week later, as Board we followed up by finally holding our own CoBo. Seeing nearly all the other student sports associations, former boards (including the Link founders themselves), and other esports associations coming together to celebrate with us really warmed our hearts and we are so happy to have shared this moment with them and with many of you, too! <3
COMMITTEE EVENTS
Enough self-boasting about Board-organized events, let’s look at all the cool stuff that the committees have been doing!
Spawnpoint Strivers & Ghibli Movie night
SpawnpointCo has been firing on all cylinders to organize both their regular Spawnpoint Strivers event, as well as hosting us all for a cozy Ghibli movie night. Thank you SPCo for getting these events ready!
MarketingCo
Talking about the Ghibli movie night, how cool is the promotional Instagram post that MarkCo made for it? They are doing a ton of work and looking at our Instagram especially, it really pays off massively and we can only thank MarkCo for all the effort they are putting in these days!
EsportsCo & EventCo
It is no secret that it took a while to find the right committee head for EsportsCo, but now that we did, we are sure to see more from them. In fact, they started this month by hosting a super fun Mario Kart tournament :D
And together with EventCo, another major event just took place! An (almost) 48 hours Scary x Linksgiving stream on our twitch channel including a giveaway for all participants at the end! While there were a few bumps in the road, we believe that the stream was an overall success and we are especially happy about all the Linkies and even Respawners that joined us and streamed for a slot!
Streams
While we are at the topic of streaming, we are also happy to see a lot of streaming activity these days, often multiple times per week! And, while starting off slow, we are excited to see a slowly rising audience of regular viewers, topped off in a very successful first Board D&D stream. We’ll have a guest for the next Board D&D, so stay tuned and tune in! :]
SNEAK PEEK
Lastly, let’s discuss a couple of things to look forward to in December and beyond!
FTOTM
Starting off, make sure you attend the final FTOTM of this year tonight! We would love to see many of you there, and maybe, just maybe, you get a little early Christmas gift ;)
Spawnpoint
Don’t let it be forgotten, the Spawnpoint relocation remains a major priority for us. Sadly, a lot of things are currently confidential, but what we can say is: there have been some big steps forward, and we hope to tell you more in the near future!
Christmas & New Year’s
As is common, Link will be holding a little bit of a hibernation throughout Christmas and New Year’s as people travel to spend time with their families. The next board update will likely be after that, so we already want to wish everyone a merry Christmas and an amazingly happy new year! <3
To not leave Christmas time fully untouched, we nonetheless have a Sinter Santa planned on the 17th of December, so if you want an early Christmas gift, come join that!
We hope to see all of you rejuvenated and ready for some more Link events afterwards!!! :D
Much Love,
Board
