After the date, please mention how it went. Atlanta (where I am) had a few attempts to start meetups, but none were successful as far as I know. Information on cold-start meetup attempts (successful or otherwise) would be nice.

I have a hypothesis that the karma of the prospective starters has a noticeable impact on the willingness of people to come.

I will.

Short summary of the first Frankfurt-Meetup:

We were five adults and one child. We had no strict program; in the span of 18 30 to 21 30 we exchanged among others the following things: lifehack-tips; the impressions we get from the LessWrong-community; interest in further meetups, with potential themes; a startup german cryogenic firm. All five of us would be interested to meet again, and we undertook concrete steps to ensure this. It seems as if a more-or-less permanent meetup could be possible.

This concludes the not-last and not-final transmission of the impossible-possible-meetup.

Good catch; I wasn't watching. Thanks for the update.

What sort of plans did you arrange to ensure a second meeting? Just schedule a date then and there? (I'm thinking not, or you would have said as much.)

Thanks for the information. Good luck, and maybe consider keeping notes on what works and what doesn't, statistics on returning guests, etc. I know successful meetup reports and advice exist elsewhere on LW, but experimental replication can't hurt.

Der beliebteste doodle Termin ist der 15. . Wenn wir den nehmen, wäre es gut, das meetup noch dieses Wochenende anzusetzen, sonst wird es zu knapp.

Ich bin auch verwirrt und habe auch keine E-Mail erhalten. Wer Kontakte hat, schreibe mich bitte an, damit ich auch dazustoßen kann. Ich schreibe jetzt mal Falstofe

Ich denke, wir sollten ohne weiteres zögern den 15. als Termin festsetzen
