Game Night

**🦋 Speed Dating Live on Zoom for Vancouver Locals Host Guided — Personality First** Joining means you'll spend your time in brief timed Zoom sessions with Vancouver locals paired by quiz results and age range, while a live host keeps things smooth throughout. Before the event, you take a quick personality and preferences survey — we use those answers to pair you with compatible Vancouver locals, so your conversations have a better chance of going somewhere. After the night, mutual match details are distributed — shared only when both sides chose each other — and what happens next is entirely up to you. **Sign up below — pick your age range:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Vancouver&groupurlname=bloom-with-genuine-peers-through-events&ar=18-32&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Vancouver&groupurlname=bloom-with-genuine-peers-through-events&ar=30-46&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Vancouver&groupurlname=bloom-with-genuine-peers-through-events&ar=40-58&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Vancouver&groupurlname=bloom-with-genuine-peers-through-events&ar=55+&face_v=3.0) **⚠️ Do not skip this:** An rsvp here alone does not secure your place, so select your age range link above, fill in the registration, and answer the personality quiz — capacity is restricted so act soon, and RSVP plus full registration is what holds your seat. --- **Quick Details** - **Format:** Host-managed in a hosted Zoom session built around structured one-on-one video dates, compatibility-matched within your age range. - **Where:** At-home — from your desktop laptop or phone, just a webcam and a good internet connection, and any location with good Wi-Fi and a camera works perfectly. - **Host:** A real human host ensures the rounds flow naturally and without awkwardness, which means nothing technical or logistical is on your plate — every transition and every call to move on is handled. - **Vibe:** Casual speed dating sessions with Vancouver singles who are here for the same reason you are, and the whole thing is better than you would expect. - **Duration:** Usually 60-90 minutes all in, though it always seems to go faster. **Great for:** - Professionals from Vancouver who have had enough of digital dating that never converts to anything real and want actual face-to-face conversation. - Returners near Vancouver done with swiping left and right with no results and want to talk to real people tonight. - Someone who live in Vancouver wanting to escape matches that ghost after two messages and prefer structure over ambiguity. - People who live in Vancouver done with matches that ghost after two messages and are after something more than a swipe can offer. **How the night runs** 1. **Start here** – through the link corresponding to your age range, then finish the personality questionnaire, because this is the only way to be confirmed. 2. **Enter the Zoom room** – by opening the Zoom link at the event start, any device works and no download is required, and once you are in the host handles the rest entirely. 3. **Meet your matches** – timed one-on-one speed dates with personality-matched Vancouver locals in your group, with the host managing every round transition, because no round here is random — everyone was selected. 4. **Discover your matches** – mutual matches are shared post-event with your info staying private otherwise, since only mutual matches exchange details and everything else stays private, and from there you follow up at whatever pace suits you. ⭐ *"The host made everything comfortable — the personality matching really works"* – returning Vancouver attendee 💡 **Pre-event tip:** close unnecessary browser tabs before the event, so the rounds feel natural from the very start, since a short check now means no issues at the worst moment. --- ✨ One Zoom call, real conversations, real matches — grab your spot above and the host takes it from there in this batch. The rounds are better than you think. 🪷 ✨

**🌸 Virtual Speed Dating for Cleveland Singles from Your Couch — Real Rounds** Each evening, you'll participate in guided one-on-one video rounds with Cleveland singles your age curated by personality quiz, while a host keeps the rounds comfortable. Ahead of joining, you submit a short personality questionnaire — your personality profile from that quiz to line up well-matched Cleveland people for your rounds, so every person you meet has been matched to you on purpose. After the night, we share who chose whom — shared only when both sides chose each other — and the conversation continues on your terms. **Pick your age group and register:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Cleveland&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=18-32&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Cleveland&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=30-46&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Cleveland&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=40-58&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Cleveland&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=55+&face_v=4.0) **⚠️ Do not lose your spot:** Just clicking rsvp will not save your spot in the session, so follow the age group link above, register, and complete the personality quiz to lock in your spot — limited capacity means you should not wait, and RSVP plus full registration is what holds your seat. --- **This is for you if:** - Locals from Cleveland bored of conversations that fizzle before a first date and prefer meeting people in person first. - Women and men in Cleveland moving beyond digital dating that never converts to anything real and want to meet real locals without the faff. - Someone within Cleveland leaving behind digital dating that never converts to anything real and want to try something that actually works. - Members throughout Cleveland who have given up on matches that ghost after two messages and want to meet real locals without the faff. **Your four steps** 1. **Confirm your place** – via the registration link above for your bracket, then finish the personality questionnaire, as both steps together confirm your attendance. 2. **Open Zoom** – via the Zoom link when the event begins, works on any device without requiring a download, and from there a live host guides everything. 3. **Meet your matches** – timed one-on-one speed dates with personality-matched Cleveland locals in your group, with a friendly host making sure every round feels easy, and the people in your rounds were sorted specifically for you. 4. **Collect your mutual matches** – we reveal mutual matches once the session ends, with contact info only shared when both of you said yes, and the outcome is yours to take forward at your leisure. ⭐ *"Great evening — I will definitely be back"* – Cleveland local, first event 💡 **Before you join:** grab a glass of water before you start, so the rounds feel natural from the very start, since small prep leads to a noticeably better experience. --- ✨ Try something that actually works — grab your place above before it goes and we will do the rest for this event. Real connection starts here. 🌟 ✨

**Summary** We will play TV-style game shows at [Game Show Battle Rooms](https://gameshowbattlerooms.com/columbus/) ("GSBR"). These will include *Family Feud*, *Wheel of Fortune*, and *The Price is Right*, and we will play them over the course of an hour. We ran this event for the second time back in October, and it was an even bigger hit than it was the first time we ran it the February prior. GSBR has nearly 10,000 reviews on Google and a 5-star rating. If there were any event where you were just about guaranteed to have a good time, it's this one. GSBR changes their questions and answers every month, so if you attended in October (or even if you went with another group as recently as April), you will not see any of the same questions you saw before. **The Date and Time of This Event** Saturday, June 27, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. However, if someone books the 3:00 p.m. time before I do (meaning before I have enough paid attendees), well, that's the way the cookie crumbles and we'll have to move to Plan B. That might involve trying for either one of GSBR's 1:30 p.m. or 4:30 p.m. slots, or just cancelling the Meetup altogether. We'll cross that bridge if we get to it, but be aware of these possibilities. Please arrive 15 minutes prior to whatever our actual showtime ends up being. (Hence, this meetup's 2:45 p.m. start time.) **Cost** The cost to play, per person, is $36.95 plus 8% sales tax of $2.96, plus a refundable 8% gratuity of $2.96 (see the next section for more details), for a total cost of $42.86 per person. **Mandatory Gratuity (If 20+ Participants)** If we have 20 or more participants in this event, GSBR will assess a mandatory gratuity of 8%, or $2.96 per person. If we have 20 or more attendees, GSBR will give our group an extra 15 minutes of playing time. I am collecting the gratuity up-front to prepare for the case in which we have at least 20 people. However, in the event that we do not, I will refund this $2.96 to you. In the event we have fewer than 20 people and your gratuity is refunded, your cost for the event will end up being $39.91 (instead of $42.86). I will say more below on the actual exchange of money for this event. **Drinks** GSBR does allow beverages into the game room, and they also sell some on-site. These include bottled water, soft drinks, and some alcoholic beverages. You can bring your own bottled water, too, if you want. **Cancellations and Refunds** Per GSBR's [website](https://gameshowbattlerooms.com/questions/): *If you cancel your show 5 or more days in advance of your booking time, you will receive a full refund.* *You may reduce the number of tickets and receive a refund if you provide at least 5-days’ notice.* More on this in a moment. **Number of Participants** GSBR does not run events for fewer than 6 people. I will not purchase tickets for this event with fewer than 10 paid, and I will not send out a solicitation for money without at least 12 signed up for this Meetup. More on this below. **The Actual Exchange of Money** Tickets for GSBR events are not purchased piecemeal. I will need to book our GSBR event as a bloc. This means that everyone will need to send me his or her entrance fee via either Venmo or Paypal prior to me booking our time. Anyone failing to send me his or her money will be removed by me from this event. Once 12+ people are signed up here for this Meetup, I will send out a DM through the Meetup messaging system to those 12+ participants with my Venmo/Paypal information. You will then have 72 hours to wire me your share of the money. After 72 hours, if I don't have money from you, I'll remove you from event. If I don't have money from at least 10 people, I'll refund everyone's money, and we'll either re-start the process or I'll just cancel the event. I'm not going to book any event with GSBR unless I'm reasonably certain we're going to be able to run it. Assuming I have money from 10+ people, then I will book the event through GSBR's website. If you decide to cancel and you want a refund, you ***must*** give me time to contact GSBR with at least 5 days notice. Since the date of this event is Saturday, June 27, you have to let me know not later than Sunday, June 21, to allow me time to call GSBR not later than Monday, June 22, in order to get a refund for your share. Once I have confirmation from GSBR for the refund, I will Venmo/Paypal the money back to you immediately from my account. (There will probably be a 3-5 day delay before GSBR actually processes the refund, but I will absorb the cost of the float and get your money back to you right away.) **"Hey, Eric! I just saw this event! Can I sign up late?"** Yes, but you still need to Venmo/Paypal your share of the booking fee to me, which will be $40.55. If I don't get it within 72 hours after you sign up (or time permitting for me to book you in with GSBR if you sign up last-minute), then I'll remove you from the event. **Mandatory GSBR Waiver Requirement** GSBR policies *require* that each attendee signs a liability waiver prior to the event. You can find the waiver [here](https://gameshowbattlerooms.com/questions/) (on the right-hand side toward the bottom of the page under the section "Do I Need To Sign A Waiver Form?"), and you should also be able to skip directly to the form [here](https://waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/5c473bb934d6a/web/). *You must fill out this waver in order to participate in the event*. The form is short and this really shouldn't take you more than 2 minutes, but please send me a DM if you have any issues filling out the document. **Denouement** Afterward, for those who are interested, we'll drown our sorrows or celebrate our exultations at [Crooked Can Brewing](https://crookedcanohio.com/) in Hilliard. They also have extensive food options. The actual address of the brewery is [5354 Center St, 43026](https://www.google.com/maps/place/5354+Center+St,+Hilliard,+OH+43026/@40.0339813,-83.1623519,17.25z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x883893f9f30108a7:0xbe4c8919aa69e3e7!8m2!3d40.0344541!4d-83.1598828!16s%2Fg%2F11gxsh9f_0?entry=ttu).
