• 26 Oct - Random Thought - Fly a carrier
• 26 Oct - Possible - Teach a tackling class - requirements: a lot more tackling
• 26 Oct - Possible - Create EveUni as the home of "Toastmasters in Space" (or something with a sillier name)
  • Need to flesh out ideas, still only rough mental model
  • Trigger - After I taught my 5th class
• 26 Oct - Figure out how to get the 'S' in "Smith" capitalized on the wiki
  • Value - it's a minor thing, but it will teach me a lot about wiki editing
• 26 Oct - Figure out how to put a blank line between projects
  • Value - it will give me more power over the wiki.
• 2014-10Oct-17 Got assignment From Alcyone Codesmith > <url=showinfo:1376//886296454>Samuel Smith</url> just fix <url=http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Category:Standard_Frigates>http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Category:Standard_Frigates</url> so it provides a link to <url=http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Condor>http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Condor</url>
  • Value - The page doesn't show much when opened in an edit window, fixing this will help me understand templates
• 26 Oct - Figure out where mail comes in at
  • Status - I got an email from a corp member who looked at my wiki page, and answered one of my questions, but I can't find it
  • Value - First, it would be nice to be able to say, "Thank you"
  • Value - Second, it would probably be REALLY useful to know where I'm getting mail from corp-mates.
• 2014-10Oct-20 Started greeting non-returning new members (for the last two days)
  • Took about 50 minutes - unsure if it will provide value to the new incoming freshmen.
  • Evolved the following rough script outline

[[Hi <name>

Welcome to the Uni.

Depending on what you want to do, you will never lack for people to play with here in the Uni.

Do you know if you are more of a builder, a destroyer, or a teacher?

All three are great, but having a clue can help you chart your path, and help you find the right people to hang to grow the way you want to grow.

If you have any questions let me know. I'm not any type of official Uni greeter, I too am just getting started in the Uni. It's just that I felt a little lost in my first few days. Because of that, I decided to start greeting people as a way to start learning more about my new home.

That's a long way of saying, "I probably don't know the answer to any of your questions, but I can find the people who do"

Fly Deadly

• 2014-10Oct-20 - Self assignment - Need a way to show indented text (the double brackets above)
• 2014-10Oct-20 - Self assignment - Need a way to highlight assignments so that they stick out so that if I have someone handy who can answer my questions I can quickly find my questions.
• 2014-10Oct-20 - Self assignment - Assessment: May need a blog, but I'm not sure if I have more than 6 weeks worth of content here. Could be well worth it.
• 2014-10Oct-20 - Self assignment - Need some kind of lab book format for experiments and a way of seeing high level projects and drill down into their status. Should end up being a decent FAQ.
• 2014-10Oct-20 - Self assignment - Need to write up how I felt once I joined the Uni. Felt lost, lot of energy getting into the Uni and then floored by the paradox of choice. There's a ton to do, but how do I do it?
• 2014-10Oct-20 - Self assignment - Find or write document on a normal day in the life a Unista. Possibly do interviews with Unista graduates.
