WARP
,no edit summary
The WARP [[listserver]], in addition to serving as the coordination tool of the club, also serves the valuable purpose of a spam conduit, down which people send links to strange news articles, online games, and other [[procrastinating|procrastination]] aids. The listserver is also a good place to settle important fantasy-battle questions, like "who would win in a fight: a cave troll, or a pack of velociraptors?" Finally, the WARP listserver is an excellent place to observe WARP crust in action, since many WARP members never leave the listserver even after graduation.
Traditionally WARP has two "real" officer positions: the Figurehead (president) and the Shadowy Grand Vizier (treasurer). The current (0607-0708) Figurehead is [[Kat JongSean Hayes]], and the current Grand Vizier is [[Sean HayesEdward Newkirk]]. In practice, WARP has a long hierarchy of ever-fluctuating ceremonial titles, the most enduring of which is the [[Not-Pope]].
WARP is affiliated with most of the other organizations of the [[Odd quad | Odd Quad]], if only by shared membership. The strongest link is to the [[Deviants]] listserver, which serves as a more neutral socialization branch of essentially the same social group. Other closely-affiliated organizations include the [[Elizabethans]], the [[(Moocho Macho Moocow Military) Marching Band]], and the [[Mad Cow]]. See also: [[Den of Slack]].
