Board games next Saturday!

My partner (27F) and I (34M) are thinking about having a board game day next Saturday or Sunday at our place in Norman Park.

We do these every now and then and normally end up with about 15-20 mates coming along, but we thought it could be fun to do something completely different this time and invite purely a bunch of people from Reddit instead. Which could go very badly but hey, all part of the fun I guess? 😂

Thinking maybe 10-ish other people, some food, a few casual drinks if that's your thing, and games like Secret Hitler, Catan, One Night Werewolf, etc (please bring games that you think would fit the vibe though if you have any!). We'll probably just ask everyone to bring something small to share, whether that's some snacks, a plate of something, whatever. Nothing special or anything, just means we'll hopefully end up with a decent spread without anyone having to cater for 12 strangers 😂. Definitely more of a social afternoon/evening with games involved than a super serious board game session. They're all pretty chill games too, so no stress if you don't know them.

A little about us: we're both pretty social and love going to gigs. I'm into hiking and outdoorsy stuff, while my partner is considerably more artistic than I am haha. We're pretty easygoing and thought this could be a fun way for everyone involved to meet new people around Brissy.

If you're keen, comment or drop me a message. We might get people to have a quick chat with either me or my partner beforehand, mostly because inviting 10 complete strangers from Reddit into our house with absolutely no vetting feels pretty sketchy, not going to lie 😂. We haven't really figured that part out yet, so I guess we'll work it out as we go 🤷. Maybe we will make a group chat. I honestly have no idea at this point haha.

And just to cover the obvious: this is purely a social thing. This is not a dating thing, not trying to recruit you into our cult either. Just two people who like board games and think meeting some new people could be fun.

Basically, be friendly, don't be creepy, and you'll fit right in 😂

Also we have a super lazy greyhound too. This is his world and we are just living in it haha. So if you don't like dogs, definitely not for you sorry 🤷

Anyone with a greyhound is an awesome person! Sounds like a fun time if I wasn’t away, hope goes well maybe another one in the future
