The Foundation Session
Every guild has a founding moment. This is ours.
**Foundation Session** is not a regular event, it's where we meet each other, share what brought us here, and shape what The Guild becomes together.
We have some ideas. A format built around dissecting fantasy releases, forging worlds collaboratively, and giving GMs honest feedback from the player side of the table. But a community is only as good as the people in it! So we want to hear from you before anything is set.
Come with your opinions, your ideas, and your taste. No experience required. Whether you've been running campaigns for years or just finished your first season of Critical Role -- you belong at this table.
💰 **Free event** \-\- just grab a coffee or a bite at **Caféine Club** to support the venue hosting us.
🕖 Apr 30, at 7:00 PM
📍 Caféine Club UAE
See you at the table. 🎲
♟ Business Chess & Backgammon Dubai
### **This is not a public event.**
On April 5, we’re gathering a **small, curated circle** of entrepreneurs, founders, and professionals in Dubai.
No mass invites.
No open access.
No random crowd.
**Why people come**
Because most networking events don’t work.
Too loud.
Too superficial.
Too many people who shouldn’t be in the room.
We do it differently.
**What happens here**
No pitches.
No сцен.
No forced conversations.
Only a carefully selected group
where connections happen naturally —
through presence, not performance.
**Chess & backgammon?**
Just an excuse.
The real value is the room.
And who is sitting across from you.
**Event details**
📅 April 5
🕖 19:00–22:00
📍 Dubai (location shared after confirmation)
💎 Limited capacity
🔒 Approval required
**Contribution**
💎 **100 AED — charitable contribution**
This is not a ticket.
It’s a filter.
It ensures the right people in the room.
**Important**
We do not aim for quantity.
We protect the quality of the circle.
Once the list is full — registration closes.
**If you feel this is for you — apply now.**
**If you hesitate — it’s probably not.**
Games Night
Come join us for board games!
All are welcome, you don't need to know the games in advance because we'll give rules introductions before starting each game. We have a huge collection, and everyone is welcome to request or bring new games (so long as at least one person knows how to play it!)

Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations.
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that.
We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus.
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn.
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play.
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders…
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords…
IMPORTANT:
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for.
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
