  • I visited NYC for a week for the first time in June and loved every second of it. So much to do and see so I was never bored. Insanely walkable and filled to the brim with public transit. There were times I got on the trains just to ride them cause I don’t have them where I live. If I ever move out of my garbage state, that’s pretty high on my wishlist of places to live if I can find a job that pays better than my current job ($25/hr for 45-50+ hours a week) and a 1 bedroom apartment that I could afford (best ones around me are $1k/month).









  • Yeah if I saw this just around with no extra info I’d probably ignore it. Maybe including pics of what games to expect would help. Obviously when posted on the sites you mentioned and others like Meetup you can be more specific, but vagueness hurts. Like I check the Meetup app for things in my area and the things I go to state what exactly is there (for gaming is was Mario Kart 8 Deluxe casually and others are movie groups where the film is in the title).

    “Bring your own” probably also turns people away cause they don’t know the crowd and might worry about things getting stolen or lost. Combine that with the vagueness and it comes off as nothing is available. Even the vague boardgame group I tried had examples in the title “Come play Uno, Rummikub, and more!” At least gave me an idea of what to expect with them.
