A one-shot test game is probably more effective than even the best questionnaire, although that slows things down.

Yeah, probably.

That's a great idea. Perhaps even a quick warmup one-shot using premade characters you (the DM) provide. They could see if they like your style in less than an hour.

I'm almost at the point of going to a fairly local geek bar, though I don't drink, to see if there are any regular games. It doesn't hurt that one of my favourite local model/actresses tends bar there, either.

I haven't read back in this thread so apologies if it's already been discussed, but have you already checked your local game stores (assuming there are any nearby)?

Man, despite being dragged to Ponderosa all through my childhood, I don't think I ever actually had any steak. My dad always made me get the salad bar.

The only real local gaming store of that sort shut down, pre Covid. Anything else just has racks of stock, with no real community feel.

Looks like early '70s, if memory serves. Back in the days of $0.05 bags of chips and $0.10 bottles of soda.
