THURSDAY👋⚽FOOTBALL FRIENDLY 20:30-22:00 (Donaucity) w/ SORIN & Video Highlights
Things to know before playing: Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls; We play Thursday Night Football (outdoor only) . We play 90 minutes (kick off is at 20:30, and we meet at least 15 minutes before for a warm up phase). Post-Corona football matches are most likely between 14-16 and 28-32 players. If you would like to join please bring artificial turf shoes (like the ones for indoor turf) and shin pads (not mandatory but definitely recommendable). All I ask is that you come with a good mood, be respectful to everyone, and pay online using the link below. [FOOTxp Thursday Night Football](https://footballexperiences.net/kickaball/p/thursdaynightfootball/) Other methods for payments. **Bank Transfer**: Sorin-Florian Brici AT27 2011 1829 5564 7001 **\* [Revolut](https://revolut.me/brici)** \- Recommended **\* [Wise](https://wise.com/pay/me/sorinb256)** \- Also recommended **\* [Paypal](https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/sorinSocial)** \- Please use non\-Commercial product We play light: no sliding, hard tackling, fighting, screaming, & hopefully no injuries. We need to respect current regulations in Vienna, Austria. The main priorities are to have fun and being safe. The drinks are relatively free after the game in the local pub, served to those who have shown fantastic football fair-play skills. We’ll confirm the location, the pitches, and the dressing room numbers via our dedicated Football WhatsApp group. Keep an eye out for the group messages. See you all soon. Sorin SMS/ WhatsApp +43 6764276984 (please ask to be added to our football groups). We will probably need to confirm your presence if you are coming for the first or second time.

If someone is talking bad, complaining, insulting someone, fouling on purpose or committing the usual football shenanigans, please let the organizers know. Measures will be taken, we assure you. Any misbehavior on your part, such as responding in an obscene way, fighting, or leaving the pitch is not a practical and diplomatic way of resolving the issues (it tends to create more tension and cause more problems). Let’s be respectful and mature and try to enjoy the game we all love. That’s why we’re all here. Get to know people from all over the world and have fun! Thank you. Sorin

Menschen lesen lernen: Secret Identity Spiele
Menschen lesen lernen: Secret Identity Spiele
Was gibt es Faszinierenderes, als die menschliche Psychologie zu entschlüsseln und zu lernen, wie man Menschen liest? Zu erkennen, was ein Blick, ein Zögern oder eine minimale Veränderung in der Stimme bedeutet, ist eine echte Superkraft. Und das Beste daran: Am schnellsten und intensivsten lernen wir, wenn es richtig viel Spaß macht, nämlich mitten im Spiel, beim gemeinsamen Lachen und Ausprobieren! Genau darum dreht sich diese Gesellschaftsspielerunde! Hier stehen **Secret Identity & Social Deduction Games** im Mittelpunkt. Wir machen einen eigenen Spiele-Tisch für Social Deduction Games beim öffentlichen Spieleabend in der Pauluskirche. Das Spieleabend ist gratis. Da ich begrenzte Plätze am Spieletisch habe, muss ich das Event begrenzen. ### Was sind Social Deduction Games? Bei diesen Spielen bekommt jeder eine geheime Identität zugewiesen. Die Gruppe ist aufgeteilt: Die meisten spielen ehrlich, doch einige wenige sind die geheimen Saboteure (bekannt aus Klassikern wie *Werwölfe*). Das Ziel? Durch Diskussionen, Bluffen, gezieltes Fragen und Beobachtung der Körpersprache herauszufinden, wer die Wahrheit sagt und wer lügt. Ergänzend werden an diesem Abend eventuell auch ein paar normale Deduktionsspiele auf den Tisch kommen, bei denen es statt um das Lesen von Menschen eher um messerscharfe Logik, das Kombinieren von Hinweisen und das Lösen von Rätseln geht. ### Das erwartet dich: * **Reine Praxis statt grauer Theorie:** Keine komplizierten Regelstudien vorab – alle Spiele werden vor Ort direkt und einfach erklärt. * **Spielerische Selbsterfahrung:** Teste deine Intuition, schärfe deine Menschenkenntnis und experimentiere mit deiner eigenen Überzeugungskraft. * **Jede Menge Spaß:** Erlebe einen dynamischen Abend voller Nervenkitzel, Wendungen und guter Gespräche. Egal, ob Profi-Bluffer oder absoluter Neuling – komm vorbei, spiel mit und lerne die Kunst des Menschenlesens von einer ganz neuen Seite kennen! \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- What could be more fascinating than decoding human psychology and learning how to read people? Recognizing what a look, a hesitation, or a subtle shift in someone's voice means is a true superpower. And the best part: we learn fastest and most intensely when we are having real fun—right in the middle of a game, laughing and experimenting together! That is exactly what this board game round is all about! The main focus here is on Secret Identity & Social Deduction Games. We are setting up a dedicated table for Social Deduction Games at the public board game night in the Pauluskirche. The board game night itself is free of charge. Since spots at our gaming table are limited, I have to limit the capacity for this event. **What are Social Deduction Games?** In these games, everyone is assigned a secret identity. The group is divided: most play honestly, but a select few are secret saboteurs (as seen in classics like Werewolves). The goal? To find out who is telling the truth and who is lying through discussions, bluffing, targeted questioning, and observing body language. In addition, we might also bring a few standard deduction games to the table, which focus on razor-sharp logic, combining clues, and solving puzzles rather than reading people. **What to expect:** Pure practice instead of dry theory: No complicated rulebooks to study beforehand—all games will be explained directly and simply on-site. Playful self-discovery: Test your intuition, sharpen your people skills, and experiment with your own power of persuasion. Tons of fun: Experience a dynamic evening full of thrills, twists, and great conversations. Whether you are a master bluffer or an absolute beginner—come by, play along, and learn the art of reading people from a whole new perspective!

The Emperor's New Groove - A Drinking Game Vienna
**WHERE!?** We will be in the downstairs Event Area at [Café Aera](https://aera.at/)! Tickets cost €21, and to guarantee you a seat, we recommend you book in advance at www.adrinkinggamevie.com. **WHAT??** A group of actors and a host perform a staged reading of a script in front of a live audience.

Audience members are encouraged to participate, but are not required to drink alcohol. **HOW?** * No one under the age of 18 years is allowed to attend the show. * Anyone who has a beverage in hand can participate. A beverage is not required to watch the show, but it's more fun that way! * There are usually 4-5 buzzwords per show and they are articulated to the audience before the show starts. * Actors follow the same buzzwords as the audience as well as additional "actor-only" buzzwords. This is not a meetup exclusive event, so bring your friends, bring your parents, bring your co-workers, the more then merrier!
