This is at Asia Square Tower 1 of Citigroup near Downtown MRT. We'll be at the outdoor lunch tables in the common area near Asia Square Tower 1. Look for people with chess boards. We are always on, have never missed a Wednesday (except for Covid). Rain, Hail or Shine we are on (under cover). Even public holidays. Please bring a tournament sized chess board/pieces if you have one, as there is always more people than boards.

No one should feel intimidated or embarrassed to play. It's Social Chess! Look forward to seeing you at the social chess meetup where we'll play some games, go through a famous game and for those interested, have a drink afterwards. If you're new to chess, come along and we'll have fun going through how the game works Asia Square Building Management have kindly granted permission to use their tables for this Chess Meetup on the proviso that we are orderly and we return the tables to original configurations after use (taking care not to damage the edge of tables).

**Hi Everyone! 🏮** CNY Day 1 is the perfect time for a quiet day of rest and enjoying the "festive silence" of Singapore. Use it to recharge and treat yourself to some peace. But by **Day 2**, let’s get together! Let’s leave the house, breathe in the fresh air, and make sure we are **Solo No More**. As someone who runs these paths regularly, I want to show you why Fort Canning is the heart of our city. It’s a beautiful escape right in the center—actually, the story of Singapore city starts right here. From the hilltop, you can see a perfect overview of our city skyline. **What we will do:** * **The "City to Hill" Walk:** We’ll meet in the city and walk toward the greenery, crossing from the modern streets into the ancient "Forbidden Hill." * **History & Stories:** I’ll share some fascinating history along the way—from the ancient kings who lived here to the old fort gates. * **Nature & Photo Stops:** We will "smell the nature" and stop at my favorite spots for photos when the sunset light is at its best. * **The Stroll:** This is a relaxed walk to enjoy the breeze and the company. No rushing! * **What to bring:** Bring a bottle of water and your best camera-phone! 💧📸 * **After-Walk:** We will end near Clarke Quay for a riverside drink or a casual bite for anyone who wants to keep the conversation going. * **Why walk with us?"** Many of us spend our days leading businesses or managing careers alone. But a journey is always better when you share the footprints. This is a chance to step away from the screen, 'smell the nature,' and connect with fellow professionals and entrepreneurs without the pressure of a boardroom. It costs nothing but your time, and the fresh air is on the house!

### Pickleball Sunset Ladder Mixer! 🏓🌇 An evening of dinks, (drinks after maybe), and a ladder format designed to expose your ego in public. 📍 Location: 317 Outram Rd, Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium, Singapore 169075 🕓 Time: 4PM to 7PM 💵 Cost: $25 per person ($5 paddle rental if you don’t have your own trusty weapon) Early bird: $20 (excluding paddle) if you confirm with payment at least 5 days before the event Lock in your spot (payment = confirmed, no payment = vibes only): 📲 Early Price: [https://hitpay.link/bpufbo](https://hitpay.link/bpufbo) 📲 Normal Price: [https://hitpay.link/gy1dej](https://hitpay.link/gy1dej) ✅ If you usually pay cash, no worries, just continue with that. ⚠️ Cancellation Policy Please give at least 24 hours’ notice for cancellations to receive a refund. No refunds for no-shows or cancellations within 24 hours, unless the whole event is rained out. ### ## 🪜 What’s the Plan: Rookie → King’s Court Ladder This is a ladder mixer. Everyone starts humble. Nobody starts as a “king” (yes, even you). Courts: Rookie Court: your spawn point King’s Court: final boss arena ### 🎮 How it Works 1. Start at Rookie Court 2. Win a game = you upgrade to King’s Court 3. Lose at any point = back to Rookie Court (character development arc) 4. On King’s Court: max 3 wins After 3 wins, you restart at Rookie Court again (so you don’t camp and become a court landlord) ### 🌀 Paddle Queue System All courts run on paddle queue. Put your paddle in the box/line for the court you’re queuing for. Rotate in when it’s your turn. No cutting, no politics, no “I know the coach”. ### 🧮 Scoring + Timing Scoring: First to 15, rally scoring (no serving maths, we’re here to play not do accounting) Timing: Each match capped at 15 minutes so everyone gets runs ### 🏆 Official Tournament Balls Franklin X-40 for all games. ### 👑 Ladder Champions + Prize We’ll track King’s Court streaks and crown the Ladder Champions. Small token prize included (mainly for bragging rights + group chat supremacy). May the champions rise. May the excuses be creative. ### 📌 Rules of the Game Switch it up: new partner, new opponents after each match Be nice: friendly competition, not SEA Games Call lines fairly, replay if messy, keep it moving *** ## Why You’ll Love It Fast rotations, lots of games Meet a bunch of kakis without awkward small talk You get the dopamine of “ranked mode” without downloading anything *** ## What to Bring Your paddle (or rent one) Water bottle, don’t faint halfway Your best “aiyah nvm” attitude when the ball goes sideways A ready-made excuse for when you get sent back to Rookie Court 🔔 Friendly Reminder Pickleball is a social and physical activity, please be mindful of your own safety and physical limits. Participation is at your own risk. Stay hydrated, warm up properly, and rest if you need to. 🎟️ RSVP Now — Spaces Are Limited!

To lock in your spot (and avoid FOMO), pay via: Early Price: https://hitpay.link/4zzohp Normal Price: https://hitpay.link/p1rys5 ✅ Spots are confirmed only when payment is in. If you usually pay cash, no worries, just continue with that. (Payment details will be updated on the page shortly.) ⚠️ Cancellation Policy Please give at least 24 hours’ notice for cancellations to receive a refund. No refunds for no-shows or cancellations within 24 hours, unless the whole event is rained out. ### ## 🎯 What’s the Game Plan: Ladder Match Format This is a ladder session. You play short matches, score points for wins, and move up or down based on results. Courts Court 4: Intermediate Ladder Court 6: Beginner Ladder (slower pace, newer players welcome) ### 🪜 How the Ladder Works 1. Check-in and warm-up (first 10 minutes) 2. You’ll be assigned a starting position on the ladder for your court 3. Each round is one match 4. Win = move up one spot Lose = move down one spot 5. New partner and new opponents every round (fast social rotation, still competitive) ### 🧮 Scoring + Timing Match format: First to 11, rally scoring Cap: 12 minutes per match (so we rotate on time) If time is up, finish the rally and record the score ### 🏐 Official Balls Franklin X-40 tournament balls for all games. ### 🌀 Paddle Queue System (if needed) If we have extras, place your paddle in the box for your court. You’ll rotate in on the next available slot. ### 📌 Rules Vibe Competitive, but not toxic. Call lines fairly. Replay if it’s messy. Keep it moving so everyone gets reps. *** ## Why You’ll Love It Clear structure, no chaos You get matched with different players every round You’ll feel yourself improving because it’s repeat games under pressure *** ## What to Bring Your paddle (or rent one) Water bottle Good shoes Your best “aiyah nvm” attitude when the ball clips the net 🔔 Friendly Reminder Pickleball is a social and physical activity, so be mindful of your own safety and limits. Stay hydrated, warm up properly, and rest if needed. Participation is at your own risk.

Welcome to the Party of Fives Meetups! If you are a gamer who wants to go beyond the usual PARTY gaming fare at boardgame meetups and cafes, this is it!

We will be playing an assortment of board games ranging from light strategic kinds to heavy thematic ones.

We will contact you when you sign up and place you into appropriate messaging groups with different needs to facilitate further communication. Total noobs are totally welcome!
