We'll play the second edition of “Nippon”, an economic area-majority game. Please watch the rules video beforehand, I will answer any rules questions before we start play. BGG: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/434367/nippon-zaibatsu Rules video: https://youtu.be/8XwovNGtuco?si=QvT_FuLiGRgxRFhV ============================== Nippon: Zaibatsu is a new edition of Nippon, a fast-paced, area-majority economic game. Players control "zaibatsu": massive conglomerates of interconnected companies driving Japan's economy in the Industrial Revolution era. During the game, players invest in new industries, build factories and railroads, and produce goods to saturate local markets and fulfill contracts — all to grow their influence and power and to become rulers of the new modernized country. Players are free to choose their playstyle and winning strategy: They choose what they score victory points for, control the game's pace with income turns, and race each other to get the most beneficial factories, markets, and bonuses. ================================= The fee will be paid directly to the venue and the cost is about $70 per person. They do not sell food there, but you may bring takeaways or order food for delivery.

Your twenties are a time of uncertainty—but also a time of possibility. Come by and talk with peers about what's happening in your industry or field, and where you're headed next. Whether you're an architecture student about to graduate, a non-local student or "Hong Kong drifter" still deciding whether to stay in the city, an AI practitioner, a designer, or an entrepreneur—you're all welcome. What do we talk about? Things like: Does what I'm doing now have a future? If I want to switch paths, where should I go? What's my next move? Maybe you'll meet some like-minded strangers. Or maybe you just want to hang out and listen. That's fine too. No formalities. Stay as long as it's useful; leave whenever you need to. Who this is for: Fresh graduates, young professionals just starting out, or anyone thinking about a career change—basically anyone between 20 and 30.

We’re bringing back Adult Field Day. Last year was a good mix of competition and just hanging out, so we’re doing it again with some new games mixed in. Think team-based challenges, simple races, and a few things inspired by game shows. You don’t need to be athletic. Most of the fun is just being part of a team and getting to know people you wouldn’t normally talk to. The goal isn’t really winning. It’s meeting people, laughing a bit, and leaving knowing a few more names than when you showed up. If you stick around after, we’ll have a potluck, a bonfire, and a couple comedians in the evening. Bring: * Something to share for the potluck * Clothes you can move around in A small contribution helps keep events sustainable and ensures those who RSVP actually show up. Include your Meetup name + event name in the note. Please send $2 per person to guarantee your spot. Venmo (preferred) or PayPal @WiseUnlimitedLLC Actual links in comments below! Include your Meetup name + event name in the note.

We practice, dance, and enjoy a BYOB bottle of your favorite wine at the Dublin Ballroom off Sawmill, North, and “milonga” is a social event for tango dancing where dancers socialize. A “*practica*” is an informal social event for tango dancing where dancers focus on practicing the dance; while a “*practilonga*” combines the relaxed atmosphere of a “*practica*” with the format of a “milonga.” We are doing it all! ***Cost is $10 payable to the Teacher.*** *Cost is for the cost of the venue and covers some snacks.* We have had fun doing this event in the past. Please arrive promptly as lessons begin at 2pm. Don't worry about bringing a partner as there will be others at the event from outside the group that: a) might have a clue and b) won't step on your toes. The event is BYOB (similar to our Salsa events), so bring your favorite and a wine glass. We will likely find a place for dinner and drinks after the dance.

**Let’s catch up and take an afternoon break.** **Grab a coffee or snack and let’s chit chat! Gayle and I will bring adult coloring books and/or a simple craft if you’d like to unwind and relax.😊**
