DND Meetup (again)

[BrooklynKnight]

Its that time again.
17 days from now <a href=http://dnd.meetup.com> DND Meetup</a> has another meeting scheduled.

Its for 7pm in all locals. I see lots of people on here making posts about gamers in their local city, Personally i think this site is the PERFECT way to find them. Here are some numbers you can all think about copied from the site.

Top Cities by Members
New York, NY (29)
Seattle, WA (29)
Portland, OR (23)
London, England (18)
Toronto, ON (18)
Providence, RI (17)
Baltimore, MD (15)
San Diego, CA (15)
Tampa, FL (14)
Jacksonville, FL (14)
Orlando, FL (14)
Harrisburg, PA (13)
Minneapolis, MN (13)
Calgary, AB (12)
Broward County, FL (12)
Ottawa, ON (11)
Miami-Dade County, FL (11)
Houston, TX (10)
Salt Lake City, UT (10)
Albany, NY (10)
Kansas City, MO (10)
Winnipeg, MB (10)
Austin, TX (10)
Everett, WA (9)
Indianapolis, IN (9)


These are the 25 Top cities and how many gamers have signed up. Since these are informal, we are the ones who have to make it work.

I went to the Newyork meet and only 3 people showed. Thankfully i made 2 new really cool friends (and joined a d20 modern game) as a result.

I stress that everyone here go sign up for their respective cities, vote on a venue that is close to their home, and do their best to make it to their respective meets on Feb 11th.

If 7pm is not good for you, try emailing will@meetup.com (one of the admins) with why 7pm isint good, and perhaps the time will be changed. But beware that it will be changed for every city, not just yours.

In either case, id love for the newyorkers here at EN World to join so i could meet and get to know them. I know there are a lot of you there!

(Besides i know there has to be more then 29 gamers in NYC.)

Florida rocks...

I would like to note how my home state of Florida has the most cities in the top 20. Florida ROCKS!!!

I couldn't make it to the first meetup because I had to work late. I won't be able to make it to the second meetup because I'll be on a business trip. I hope this thing is still around in March.

it only gets scheduled if enough people vote on a location.

For those cities where there's insufficient people registered (like mine in Cedar Rapids, IA), it's not a bad idea to include your email address in the description you can enter. That's what I did, in theory it will provide a way to arrange a meet even if there's not enough people as far as the site is concerned.

 

[BrooklynKnight]

thats also a good idea.

Um, what day of the week is February 11th? If it's a monday or a wednesday, I can make it, probably to the NEw York meetup. Just gimme a place for it. Can I bring a friend or two who don't really come to this site?

 

[BrooklynKnight]

actually its a tuesday
Sign up for the site and vote for the location, its really easy.

If not enough people vote then the meet gets canceled.
If your friends are from NYC have them sign up too
its really simple.

We're not from NYC, but I live right near the Metropark Train Station in NJ, which is a straight shot to NYC. Although with it being on a Tuesday, I'm not sure if I can make it, I'm almost always working on Tuesday. How late can we register for this?

 

[BrooklynKnight]

supposedly whenever you like
this is a monthly thing
as much as id like you to join the NY con, there might be on in your town in NJ also.
the whole thing works on zipcode
have you visited the site?

OMG, there's one in the Brewed Awakening coffee shop near my house, it's only one stop on the train, I'll probably make it to that one.
