Date: 2026-03-30 (Monday) Time: 7:00pm to 8:00pm HKT (Optional Dinner 8:00pm to 9:00pm) Fee: Free of Charge Speaker(s): Zee Khamaruldin Language: English 英文 Venue: Coffice Coworking Space Lai Chi Kok Unit 1101, Floor 11, Tower 1, Cheung Sha Wan Plaza, 833 Cheung Sha Wan Road, Lai Chi Kok Sponsored By: Coffice, Kinsta **Agenda:** 7:00 – Opening 7:05 – Why Design Matters: First Impressions Count by Zee Khamaruldin 7:35 - General Q&A/Discussion 7:50 – Closing 8:00 – Dinner sponsored by Kinsta in nearby Hong Kong style restaurant (Optional, pay for your own food) Victor (our co-organizer) and Kevin (our volunteer) attended Zee's talk in WordCamp Malaysia 2025. They were impressed by the talk. They thought our audience would benefit from it and Zee's delivery of the talk was excellent. So, we have invited her to present her the same talk in our March Meetup and we are grateful that she has accepted our invitation! **Why Design Matters: First Impressions Count by Zee Khamaruldin** We all know most WordPress sites start with a similar structure, but what really makes people stop, look, and stay is the design. Colours, fonts, images, and even white space all come together to create that all-important first impression. Get it right, and your site feels inviting and trustworthy. In this session, Zee will show how design can completely change the way a site feels, even when the content is exactly the same. Whether you’re building your first site or levelling up, you’ll walk away with practical ideas to make your websites stand out. You’ll see side-by-side how design choices shape the experience with examples of websites done in Kadence and Elementor Pro. \* The speaker will deliver her talk live via Zoom. **Sponsored By** **Venue Sponsor: Coffice** [Coffice](https://www.coffice.com.hk/) 是以本地企業及傳統行業為主要服務對象的共享辦公室，自2014年起我們分別在觀塘、荔枝角及上水設立了分行。 [Coffice](https://www.coffice.com.hk/) 致力為每個創業家提供全面的創業支援及希望透過用戶交流平台，為初創公司及微企打做一個將工作，生活，社交合而為一的理想工作環境。 [Coffice](https://www.coffice.com.hk/) 不僅希望每個創業家可以在Coffice shared office Hong Kong成功開拓業務，更關心您在Coffice coworking office space工作及生活中都能夠忙裡偷閒。於Coffice的Coffee Bar喝杯咖啡，抖足精神，與co space身邊的伙伴談天說地分享創業經驗，從而互相激發靈感，充電後再搏殺。 **Event Sponsor: Kinsta** Kinsta‘s premium managed hosting for WordPress delivers speed, security, and global scalability, directly improving reliability, efficiency, and results.

WHAT IS ONE-SHOT SATURDAY? It's a weekly meet-up in Sheung Wan/Central, focusing on indie games and single-session games (one-shots). 而家所有游戏係英文嘅但如果你要嚟玩中文游戏，我哋會無任歡迎。只要湊啱玩家就行！ You can drop in and play at any One-Shot Saturday – you do not need to have played in a previous session or commit to playing again. Whether you've played an RPG before or not, you're welcome to join us. Please arrive on time as once the games begin it becomes difficult to properly introduce latecomers. Join the conversation, make plans, suggest games to play, etc. — Facebook group: [https://www.facebook.com/groups/oneshotsaturdays/](https://www.facebook.com/groups/oneshotsaturdays/) \*\*\* WHAT IS A TABLETOP RPG? It's a game in which you never know where the next stop will be, because it’s all down to the decisions you and your fellow players make. Usually one person is the Game Master (or "GM"). Everyone else will be players, taking the role of the characters in the game. The players get to say what their characters say, think, and do. The GM describes everything else in the world. Then... we play to find out what happens. The game is a conversation: I say something, then you reply, maybe someone else chimes in. We talk about what's happening to the characters we imagine and the world around them. We also talk about the rules, which help us decide what happens next if the next step is in doubt. The rules differ from game to game: some use dice to shape the story, others use cards or something else. It's always a conversation, though.

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~$20 per person. Soft drink refills are $1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group! The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play. Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes. We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area. Parking can be challenging. There is a parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.
