This is an example of what kind of "Group" this could be.
This group is for Singles only. Single means "not married" or otherwise committed to another person.
Ages between 40 and 60 only, yes we will verify when attending an event.
NO, this is not that kind of group, so get your head out of the gutter.
It's all about getting out and meeting new singles and playing games. All kinds of games, which I'm sure nearly everyone knows how to play and if not....BONUS, you learn something new.
This group; *will get you out having fun.
*This will inspire you to spiff yourself up a little and put your best foot forward. Get that haircut, trim that beard, shave your legs.....you have a date!...with a group of other singles, just like you. (It's far too easy to let yourself go when sitting in front of a screen, instead of other people.)
*It will give you an easy out meeting place for an online "meet and greet". Both of you will still end up having fun. Plus one more for the group is great, especially if everyone does it. yes, tell them first....lol
*A way to meet people, where you can use your senses, instead of bad photos to see if there is any chemistry or attraction. This is the best part of all, in my opinion.
*Something to do, other than siting at home feeling lonely.
*Maybe make a new friend.
*If your not a gamer you can sit by the bar or at a conversation table with the other non-gamer sorts.
** We can always expand to other areas/cities if the demand gets large enough to get good turn outs and I'm sure getting an organizer will be pretty easy. They don't need to do much other than attend and make sure everyone who wants to play a game is playing one as quickly as possible. Best part is...the host gets to meet everyone and.... can either play or mingle. They also get the secret messages, such as, will you organize number 23-Amber to play a 4 person game with me. (rule should state only 4 or more player game invites only, when secrete). Games will be ending at various times, so getting in on a game will have very little wait time. I can design and set it up to be simple and fun for everyone.
BOTTOM LINE People need to "meet" people to find out if there is a connection and many possible connections are lost because they never get close enough to find out.
We can organize "invite only" camping trips, casino runs, picnics, group travel, whatever we want. We can support or help one another out. We can become a network of single people that may discover that missing key to a door you never knew existed. Small groups of people talking over a game of cards or chess may be over heard by another small group of people doing the same. The possibilities are virtually endless. So yes, you have to use your head and not talk about personal information. There is strength in numbers and together we can get out there and see what/who we have been missing.
Rule Examples
There will definitely be rules and disclaimers. Group members should be verified at every event and members can be removed if they can't act appropriately. If the event is at an open forum, such as the local bar on a slow night, you must be a member to participate in games or mingling with the members. If a member violates the policy, their membership will be terminated for a specified time (yet to be determined) Members can bring guests, but the guest must agree to terms and conditions, as well as apply for membership. They will also get a temporary "players badge", for the night. This will allow other members to know that although they are playing, they are not official members. No gambling. Watch your language. Group will dismiss at the time specified for each event.
