F33 Release Party Social Events

The Mindshare Committee is currently working on organizing a Release party event to celebrate F33.

Mark your calendars: the dates of the Release Party for F33 are November 6th, and 7th.

Schedule for Fedora 33 Release Party: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_33_Release_Party_Schedule#

I was previously looking into fun virtual social events for Nest, but there were lots of other social sessions planned, so I decided to push it off for the upcoming release. I have been talking with teambuilding.com about their pricing and events, and they can accommodate our group at a reasonable cost. I have selected two events for the F33 Release: Halloween Party (I confirmed this is internationalized), and War of the Wizards (a mini DnD type session).

In order to coordinate social events like these we need to plan a bit in advance. I would like to see everyone who is interested be able to participate, meaning I will do my best to work around time zones. Yes, you can sign up for both. Depending on how many people sign up, timezones, etc, we have the option to split up into multiple sessions.

Please circulate this in your Fedora spaces, and more info to come :D

Halloween Party Signup - Friday, November 6th - See Schedule

Hi Fedorans, sign up here if you are interested in the Halloween Party event!

   Our Virtual Halloween Party is a series of spooky games and activities meant to celebrate autumn and the traditions of All 
   Hallows Eve. We use everything we've learned as a team building company to provide a virtual Halloween experience that your 
   team will rave about.
   Example games and activities include Halloween Trivia, Costume Scavenger Hunts, and Trick or Treat Icebreakers. The games 
   are fun, competitive and custom built for the season. In addition to the Halloween-themed games, we also include activities 
   that promote team bonding and connections.
   The standard virtual Halloween party is 90 minutes, fully facilitated over a secure video conference line that we provide. 
   Most events have both an energetic host to keep your people engaged, and a co-host to manage all of the technical aspects. 
   Our goal is make sure this is the best damn virtual Halloween party your team ever attended. 👻

War of the Wizards Signup - Saturday, November 7th - See [[1]]

Hi Fedorans, sign up here if you are interested in the War of the Wizards event!

   We run a fun online game for remote teams called War of the Wizards. The activity combines elements of popular role playing 
   games, world building, storytelling and more in a unique mashup of mini games and competitions. For example, your teams 
   will solve puzzles to earn points and magic items, develop their characters, and make decisions together to overcome 
   surprise challenges. All guided by our Master of Wizardry Things, who weaves the story together and provides a clear and 
   simple game structure to follow.
   The gist is this: a group of wizards have been at war since ages past, and not one of them can quite remember why. Your 
   teammates become the wizards' minions and work together toward a peaceful resolution of the conflict. You will gather 
   sparkles, power up with magical artifacts, cast spells and use fierce collaboration to win the game. What that actually 
   means: via breakout rooms, your colleagues will use communication, creative problem solving and teamwork to make important 
   decisions. It's fun 🙂
   War of the Wizards is a 90 minute event, conducted over a secure video conference line that we provide. The game is a 
   unique experience and simple to play; you don't need to be an avid RPG player or even a video game buff to get it, you just 
   need to come prepared for fun and collaboration. If you've ever thought, "a home scavenger hunt to find items for our 
   magical potion to defeat a friendly bridge ogre would be a blast!", then War of the Wizards is the game for you.
