Seventh Column Council
Taken from the recent "History of the Seventh Column" article.
[quote]Q: People think of Bungie as just Halo, but 7th Column is the most old-school aspect of the community, where do you see it going in the future?
A(Yeroen): In the future I would love to see the 7th Column become much more organized. With organization comes the ability to pull off bigger and better things--bigger FanFests, bigger fan films, whatever. We've considered imposing high level organization on the 7th Column in the past, but always held off. [b]As much as we'd love to be at the forefront of this project, we believe it will only be successful if it is organized from within, by its own members[/b].[/quote]
Ok, well I suppose we should get to work. Sounds like bungie really wants us to setup some sort of governing body for the seventh column. Might be best to get this started now before halo 2 hits and were all too busy fragging each other. So how do we do this? Should we model the SCC after our democratic goverment and have a president and advisors? I don't really know. What are your ideas? (i know we've had this conversation in the past -- but lets recap).

Hmm... If it is possible to make the 7th column main page into an uber chapter than I think it would be great. Of course anything is possible with Bungie but as I said last time, they need some place to talk privately. If they are planning an event via XBL or Halo PC or gamespy etc. they would need a place to kind of sort out the events rules like what gametypes are being played, who is playing who etc. If the 7th column main page can be used, I think it is a great idea. KIA I see what you are saying that the Bungie Employees havent been here of late but chances (I am assuming... yes I know makes an ass out of u and me...)are someone who has recently joined won't be picked just because they are relatively new and won't know the column as much. Of course I am not Bungie so my opninion doesn't matter but I figure a minimum of 2 months, if not more. You don't really want someone who is brand new and doesn't really know what they are doing. So... what exactly is the reason of the council? Events and moderating? One thing these forums need are more mods (How many more, I don't know) and if the 7th council members also are moderators, it could help. I would love to be apart of some huge 7th column XBL Halo 2 tournament or something down the road.
