A quick definition of quasi-main motion:

A quasi-main motion is a type of motion that is similar to an incidental main motion. It is a request made during a meeting or discussion that is related to the main topic being discussed, but not directly related to it. For example, if a group is discussing plans for a fundraiser, a quasi-main motion could be a suggestion to change the date of the event. It is important to note that a quasi-main motion is not the main topic of discussion, but rather a related suggestion or request.

A more thorough explanation:

A quasi-main motion is a type of motion that is similar to an incidental main motion. It is a motion that is made during a meeting or assembly that is related to the main motion being discussed, but is not directly related to it.

For example, if a group is discussing a main motion to purchase new equipment, a member may make a quasi-main motion to amend the main motion to include a specific brand of equipment. This motion is related to the main motion, but is not directly about the purchase of new equipment.

Another example of a quasi-main motion is a motion to refer a main motion to a committee for further study. This motion is related to the main motion, but is not directly about the topic being discussed.

Overall, a quasi-main motion is a motion that is related to the main motion being discussed, but is not directly about it. It is a way for members to bring up related issues or suggestions during a meeting or assembly.

Tell us what's important to you

Yeah, I would have definitely gone to the hotel if I knew they booked a room for me. At the very least, it would be proper to show up personally and explain your extraneous circumstances

Nah but it's in your name. I went to an ASD. I asked the school for an extra night and they gave it to me. You just need to plan things better.

You live and you learn
16:45
because i did let one of the staff know i'd be leaving early and thought that would be enough
16:46
but i was confused why i got an e-mail with a room cuz I didn't ask for it at all
Law-Shark
16:46
Well, you know now what to do.
16:47
well on their end they prob shouldn't just be buying hotel rooms for ppl who don't request it and then getting mad I didn't go
16:48
goof
16:48
Did you get any materials for admitted students day explaining that they would be booking hotel rooms?
16:49
there was an opt in on the form but I didn't select yes
16:49
Hmm, that's weird
16:50
i think it's unprofessional of them to call you like what if you had an emergency and had to leave? why is it their business why you didn't stay? not like they're lacking money and $100.00 hotel room is gona make them bankrupt
16:50
i figured it was an error and I was on the road so I didn't read into it. plus it would make more sense for it to be the night before cuz it started at 9am? so I was like uhhh and paid it no mind
16:51
@bigfatsloth: that's what i'm saying, they were gonna pay no matter what
16:54
"This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain." like bffr
16:55
It was probably an administrative error then. I can't imagine why they would book hotel rooms for people that didn't select yes. I would maybe follow up with them and apologize for the misunderstanding to avoid any awkwardness
