| Events not listed on the website but that are on the calendar (as either public or private) are generally open to members too unless there is a clear restriction (which is usually only for space reasons - i.e. too many to play a particular board game).

| + | ===== Regular events ===== | ||
| + | Our monthly open day is the second Saturday of the month, from 1pm to 6pm. We encourage members to come down and play some games (both video and board games) - it’s a great opportunity to meet new members (and it lets prospective members get a feel of the place). | ||
| + | |||
| + | The last Friday every month is our geek meetup - also called ‘the big house party’. We invite a few different groups to come join us. Bring along some beer or wine, help yourself to tea and coffees, it’s a general social night, but some people might play some games too. It starts from 6pm and runs until the wee hours and is usually quite busy (50+ people). | ||
| + | |||
| + | The first Friday is our tech event, a similar social event to the house party but smaller (around 20) and with a focus on talking all things tech, runs from 6pm to late. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Every Thursday we host a poker game in the main room - you can join the #poker room on Matrix to find out more, it’s very welcoming to beginners. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Every 2nd Tuesday (check the calendar) is our board games night in the main room. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Login/passwords ===== | ||

| + | |||
| + | If you didn't get a password or if you need any help, [[https://www.thegamerclub.co.uk/contact|contact us]] directly. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Future Plans ===== | ||
| + | * I’m planning on running a regular game development event as well as more tech tutorials starting in March. | ||
| + | * There has been talk in the D&D room about running additional one shot afternoons/evenings in systems other than D&D 5e. | ||
| + | * Python Glasgow are planning on running regular events (talks and workshops) | ||
| + | * Lots more Wrestling and movie nights in the works (check the relevant Matrix rooms). | ||
| + | * Game tournament nights (from Mario Kart to Mortal Kombat) | ||
| + | |||
| + | If there are any events you’d like help with organising or setting up, please give me a shout (I’m happy to purchase equipment, help run events or advertise nights on meetup etc). | ||
