I live in DC and am an instigator of things (mostly theatre outings, debate, etc). That makes it easy to pull someone into my social circle, since there's usually a movie night, play outing, Shakespeare reading I'm hosting withing the next three weeks to invite them too. (And wanting to be invited to that sort of thing is an excellent filter from my end to see that I will like them).
Obligatory plug: If you want to be even more of a social supernode, why not increase your circle by attending your local DC LessWrong meetup? :-):-)
Because it frequently conflicts with previous commitments and often, when I am free, it is playing board games, which I don't enjoy. No knock on those who do (including most of my friends) but I find them unbearably tedious.
Hmm, okay. What types of meetups would you enjoy?
(I'm asking this as a co-organizer. We try to ask people what they want and accomodate to the degree possible.)
What kind of board games do get played at those meetups?
Every 3rd meetup is board games: there's generally dominion, Zendo fairly common, and often one "long" game going on sort of on the side.
I think I'm probably missing some common games that I don't pick as much...
I sort of understand Zendo but what's the point of playing dominion at a LW meetup?
Pretty much just for socializing / fun.
