Word Gaming

The newest addition to Dublin Go club’s meet-ups! Board used to be an alcohol free board game cafe. Now it specialises in low and no alcohol drinks, and serves some food too! It’s also a good venue for some of our younger members to attend! There are plenty of board games to try there, but come along on Wednesday evenings to learn and play the great board game Go! All levels welcome, as players will always find someone happy to teach new players or provide a challenge to experienced players!

Please PREPAY for this game either by https://revolut.me/davidandl or Paypal ([kenna.david@gmail.com](http://kenna.david@gmail.com/)) √ We have just 60 minutes to play, so please come along a few minutes early to ensure we can start on time. √ The maximum number of players is 14. If you are not among the 14, please do not attend the pitch. If you are one of the 14, please be sure you show up. Places are in high demand, so unfortunately, failure to show will result in your immediate removal from the group. √ As always, you participate in these games at your own risk and agree to indemnify the organisers from any injury, loss, claim, or infection.

**✨ Dynamic Conversations** Enjoy small-group conversations (2–3 people per table) at dedicated language tables. There will always be **English-only tables**, and every attendee rotates through these tables during the **first and last rotation**. **🏷️ Language Stickers on Arrival** As soon as you arrive, you’ll receive: • **Native language stickers** (with flags + “native”) • **Practicing language stickers** (with flags + “practicing”) You may choose multiple practicing languages. These stickers help you join the right tables and connect with people who match your goals. **🔄 Rotations Every 30 Minutes** Every 30 minutes, the organizer rearranges groups based on preferred languages. We aim for **bilingual tables**, ideally with at least one native or advanced speaker. If no native speakers are available, we can still create a table as long as **two people want to practice the same language**. **🌍 Popular Languages** English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, and any other language requested by at least two attendees. **📈 All Levels Welcome** Beginner or advanced—everyone is welcome. The only requirement is enthusiasm and willingness to communicate. **🃏 Conversation Cards + Complimentary Fries** Need inspiration? Conversation cards are available at every table.

## Details The title of the event is a paradox! Read in silence and then discuss with like-minded folks! :-) 📝 **How does this work?** We will meet in the Bartley's Restaurant area from 7:00 PM to 8:15 PM for silent reading and followed up by discussion. **During silent reading, you're expected to remain silent and read.** Please bring your headphones and refrain from the discussion during the first one hour in the area. 👥 **Socialising** After an hour, at 8:15 PM, we'll discuss and socialize about the book you're reading. We highly encourage you to move between tables and strike up conversations with fellow book lovers. These discussions about literature and reading recommendations are often the highlight of the event! Feel free to join at any point during the event. The event is indoors, hopefully, we can continue the tradition of the silent reading in the winter! **📌 Helpful Tips and Notes** * Bring headphones to block out surrounding noise * I will post a comment on the event page when I arrive to indicate where we're seated, so everyone can find us * If you prefer to skip the silent reading, you can join directly at the bar at 8:15 PM ⚠️**Something Happened?** If something unpleasant happened to you, it may happen to others. It may be small but don't hesitate to reach out to me. Looking forward to meeting you all 😊

We keep it fun, practical, and focused on speaking with fluent speakers. That's the reason we meet in a relaxed bar atmosphere without loud pub noise in the background, so you can hear each other speak clearly. **Event Flow** 6:45–7:15 PM → Registration **Scan the QR code** at the location to tell us your fluent and target languages (our automated matching algorithm places you with fluent speakers) 7:15–8:30 PM → Language Exchange 8:30 PM onwards → Social & Pizza Feel free to stay around to chat and enjoy some pizza on us! **How it works?** * Every table has a Flip card: one side for your fluent language, the other for your target language. * Every **5 minutes we ring a bell**, and you **flip the card**, switching roles from learner ↔ helper. * Our custom matching system automatically places you in small groups, creating balanced and interactive groups. **Practical Info** **Entrance:** €8 (+ slice of pizza) **Save time:** Sign up now on our [website beforehand](https://www.fliplingoes.com) **When:** This Wednesday, Registration closes at 7:15 PM **Where:** Staycity, Little Mary Street – bright, comfortable and hospitable social lounge with great acoustics so you can hear each other speak. **Payment:** On-site (scan the QR code or save time and pay in advance on [our website](https://www.fliplingoes.com) **Cost Options** (all include pizza after the event): * 1 event = €8 * 4-event bundle = €24 (€6 per event) * 10-event bundle = €50 (€5 per event) **A Little about us** What started as a small experiment in Switzerland has grown into a new language exchange system: Our web app automatically matches you into small groups with fluent speakers, meaning you get the best chance to practice speaking your target language. We’re thrilled to bring this new concept to Dublin and would love your feedback — join us, speak more, and help us reinvent language exchange events!

Our free-of-charge meet-up in the Black Sheep Pub on Capel Street. This is a casual meet up for people who want to play boardgames. Lots of people bring plenty of games and rules will always be explained so don't worry if you're new to the hobby and you don't have anything to bring along or think you won't know how to play. The meet-up runs for the whole day but late comers always welcome, you just may have to wait a little for a game to open up but games will be starting and ending throughout the day. **IMPORTANT!** **The meet up is free of charge but we do ask that people support the bar by buying food and/or drink. The bar is very accommodating to us and it's important that we support them in return. Bringing in outside food or drink is completely unacceptable.** Check out the comments below where people will say what games they are bringing and express your interest in joining if interested. Any questions contact either of the organisers Gavin or Stephen.

Welcome to NeuroGamers Ireland, an event for those of us of all neurodiversity and their friends and allies who want to meet, hang out and play board and card games. We'll be meeting at Third Space at Smithfield, which is only a 5-minute walk from the LUAS Red line station of the same name. We're happy to help in travelling using other forms of transport if you message. Each event costs €5 which you can pay through cash or Revolut. It'll especially be appreciated with the space being booked for our group alone. We have a range of games available please see list below. Feel free to message if there is one you want us to bring and feel free to bring own games. [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16JHgxxDlY3x83S1VdYIPx5ZWorBZrrjCMVSbSZaqLks/edit?usp=sharing](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16JHgxxDlY3x83S1VdYIPx5ZWorBZrrjCMVSbSZaqLks/edit?usp=sharing) Please read our guidelines before attending one of our events as attendending one will be an agreement you agree to them; https://docs.google.com/file/d/1mJFuGaGPXbMIlsSl8naUmIcAKNFWTLdc/edit?usp=docslist_api&filetype=msword Also, for the purposes of health and safety, this event is 18+.

A weekly board game meet up in "Mc Mahon’s Bar and Eatery" which is a pub. We get our own section, it's wheelchair friendly and parking is free! 🙂 Whether you are new or a veteran player you are all are welcome! General guidelines are: 1. Avoid handing drinks to people OVER a game. 2. We cannot take responsibility in the event of theft so keep your valuables close to you. 3. Strictly over 18+ only. The "rules" would be: 1. Be respectful to each other. 2. Don't be a creep. 3. Be patient to players of all skill levels. Failure to be a decent human being\* will jeopardise your participation in future events. The pub owner is really nice and are letting us use the space so if you can - please buy a tea, coffee or a drink on the night to support them if you can but don't feel obligated to do so. They also do food so you won't go hungry! The event starts at 7 PM and everyone is free to play until 11 PM where we'll wrap it up for the cleaners. Feel free to bring your games, join in on a game if there's space or organise a game here for the upcoming event to get participants. We advertise the games we want to play ahead of time on our discord server, so feel free to check it out. https://discord.gg/xW8WryXmKu If you get lost or have any questions feel free to message me on WhatsApp at 0858405446. Just a note for those coming by car from Dublin: 1. I highly recommend using the motorway then driving into the pub. There's a slightly faster way with the back roads but unless you are from the area its not worth the 2 minutes saved since it's barely lit and the bends are somewhat hazardous. 2. Traffic from 5 - 6:30 is horrendous but the roads are clear enough after this time.

Catan, coup, Muchkin, Exploding kittens y mas! Agradeceriamos que consumierais algo (bebida, comida, postres, cafe, etc.) durante el evento para apoyar al local :) el evento es preferiblemente Alcohol free. Te esperamos!

Join us every Sunday and tell a story as a group by playing a beginner-friendly roleplaying game. Every week we have 2-3 different games. All materials provided and rules are explained at the start of This each game, you just need to bring your imagination. *** This week's games: **Scott** running [GOAT CRASHERS](https://gshowitt.itch.io/goat-crashers). ou're a cheeky little goat who just wants to party. Problem is, the only party in town doesn't want goats to attend. But to hell with them; you're going to get inside by any means necessary and have the BEST time. **Eoin** running [Demon Driven to the Maw](https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/372360/demon-driven-to-the-maw), a horror adventure set in 16th century Scotland. A grand ball is in full swing at Firnhirst Castle. A thief is hiding among the revelers, in possession of a tremendously valuable marble. But the thief isn't the only strange guest in attendance, and there are signs of sinister machinations occurring behind the scenes. Will you find the marble and escape with your lives? **Silvia** will run an International Women's Day special (women and NB only) of Get Lich or Try Dying. You have been woken from your not so eternal sleep by a disturbance in the world. A manosphere event is taking place at your ancestral family home. This is unacceptable. This game has 1 space left, let me know if you want to join. First come, first served etc. \*\*\* Feel free to ask the organisers any questions you have (here or on our [Discord server](https://tinyurl.com/indie-rpgs-dublin)).

Come ready to play. We’re turning dinner into a full-on game night. Card games, competitive chaos, and yes, those long strategic nerd games my friends love to play. We’ll also have Jackbox games on the big screen so everyone can jump in and talk a little trash. There will be pizza. There will be drinks. There will be snacks. There will absolutely be laughter. Pull up, grab a slice, pick a game, and let’s make it a night. \* This will be at someone's house so address will be given night before the event.

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.

This month, we are in-person at GameArena!!! We will also be joined by students and their games from [Shawnee State](https://www.shawnee.edu/game-design-programs)! \-\-\- Join us for our our monthly COGG Prototype and Play event @GameArena!

Light snacks and water provided but you can buy food and drinks at the bar (alcoholic drink ID required). [https://www.game-arena.co/menu](https://www.game-arena.co/menu) **Attendees:** Don't have a game to show? Not a problem! All are welcomed and invited from all ages and backgrounds. The more we can have to play test our games the better! **Developers:** Do you have a game that you would like to get critical feedback on? Would you like an excuse to work on a game with other talented artists, programmers, musicians, designers, and writers? Digital, table-top, non-experienced developers, and the like are welcomed! We'll provide signage for your game to help others learn more about your work. Wifi, outlets, tables, and seats (though standing tables also) are available.

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.
