Hi!
Just a follow up message regarding the afk Cafe T-shirt drive....
As indicated by the event ... you can buy as many shirts as you want (please include multiple orders if the shirts have different specs) and you also have the option of including your username/handle on the back of the shirt. They come in black or white ... and there will be male and female style shirts to choose from.
Ladies tees go up to size 18, and mens go up to a size 4XL.
They should cost ~$20 each.
Please either reply to this message through facebook or email me at Alisa.Taylor@gmail.com with your order and direct any questions, queries or concerns in the same way.
The following are the details you need to provide:
_______________________________________________________________
Future owner of the shirt(s) name:
Contact details for them (if not through facebook):
Total # shirts for this person:
Style (m/f):
Colour (b/w):
Size:
Username/Handle:
_______________________________________________________________
The sooner you respond the sooner we can finalise payment and order the shirts :) If you know of anyone who wants to purchase a shirt but who doesnt seem to have been contacted ... please pass on my details as this will probably be a once off order. (As mentioned previously .. for those not currently located in Brisbane shipping needs can be negotiated)
Look forward to hearing from you soon :D |

| Sad news indeed. |
[Feb. 5th, 2008|03:09 pm] |
It is my sad duty to inform you that, as of 3pm today, afk cafe is closed for good. For those of you who had organised events here (especially the Blood Bowl League and the Board Game group) or just like to hang out here, we're very sorry. It was a combination of financial and workload pressure that forced this closure, and while it may seem sudden it has been an option for a while. It is not a decision that has been made lightly.
All those involved with the running of afk wish to extend a very grateful thankyou to everyone who has offered their help and support while we've been open. Special thanks are due to our members and regulars, without whom we could not have made it this far.
The money we have raised for Child's Play will still go towards gaming equipment for the Mater Children's Hospital, and we will let you know the results of that effort when it's wrapped up.
We will be keeping the Livejournal community and Facebook group open for the next week or two for those who want to comment on or discuss the closure.

[Jan. 18th, 2008|10:02 pm] |
Welcome to 2008!
This year we have some awesome stuff planned! We have already had our first movie night - please feel free to post ideas for the subsequent movie night themes!
We also have more all-nighters planned (of course) the next one is set for the 26th of Jan with a console gaming Winter-een-mas theme .... xboxes and Wii's will be in attendence (along with Halo, Guitar Hero 3, Burnout 3, Gears of War ...) :P
If you - a member - come in to the cafe anytime during the Winter-een-mas week - bringing a friend who just happens to sign up to be a member - you - a member - will recieve 5 free hrs on your internet time account!!
(this also works if you arent yet a member / have been meaning to sign up as a member - all you need to do is [obviously] ... come in .. sign up .... and THEN get a friend to sign up as a paying member - to ensure your free 5hrs)
Winter-een-mas week is from the 25th - 31st Jan
Membership costs $22
For your alternative gaming needs we have some (somewhat) regular afk Cafe gatherings:
Blood Bowl (Tuesday nights)
Board Games (Thursday nights)
D&D (all days but mostly Fridays)

| movie night - cartoons!! |
[Jan. 3rd, 2008|06:29 pm] |
The first movie night of 2008 is here!
It will commence at 7pm on January 12th and this months theme is cartoons.
The line up is as follows:
Beauty and the Beast (G)
Toy Story (G)
The Incredibles (PG)
Titan AE (PG)
The cost is the usual $10 per person, with all proceeds being donated to Child's Play.
Bring your friends (the max PG rating mean you can bring just about anyone), rock up for dinner, get in early to reserve a couch (or bribe the staff with extra donations to have one reserved for you) and get ready for a fantastic night of 'attemping' to stop people reciting the movies and singing along to the songs ;)

| Closed! |
[Dec. 10th, 2007|06:07 pm] |
afk cafe will be closed all day this Saturday, December 15th, for a private function.
And yes, this is why the movie night is on a Friday instead of a Saturday night. |

[Dec. 6th, 2007|08:54 am] |
The last movie night of the year is approaching! At 7pm on December 14th, we're breaking out the musical episodes from TV series. Lexx, Buffy, Scrubs, The Simpsons, Daria and Clone High are on the menu so far. If you have another you'd like us to show, comment here or via email at info@afkcafe.com (we're still looking for some of the Simpsons episodes.)
We're also looking for a copy of the Gilligan's Island musical 'The Producer.'
The cost is $10 per person, with all proceeds being donated to Child's Play. This is your last chance to donate through us for this Christmas, but you can use the Paypal link on their website (www.childsplaycharity.org) to donate to the Mater Children's Hospital, or any of the other hospitals they support.
Get in early to reserve a couch, or bribe the staff with extra donations to have one reserved for you.
