2 local dinguses looking for 3rd/4th for casualish tabletop game night

[u/bismarkbutt]

mid 30's dudes looking for a peep or 2 to play board/card games.

planning a night this friday, october 16.

my game collection is somewhere around medium-light complexity but with some heavy ones.

waikiki/ala moana/kakaako area, couple times each month.

we know of the prominent game meetups but we sometimes just have friday after work or sunday free. Also open to be assimilated into another collective.

we can chat first or whatever. feel free to DM.

I’d recommend heading down to Armchair adventurer on Friday, set up. People will be interested and likely want to join in.

+1 to this, but I would advise calling ahead instead of dropping in. Their tables are full a lot of the time if you don't give notice.

[u/Sleepysapper1 → u/ShadeSmithNet]

That’s not really relevant, tables inside will be full Friday (Magic night is Friday) but they are fine with you setting up outside with a table after 5PM.

> shows picture of Root

clearly, I am not ready for what other games you may have 😭

[u/bismarkbutt → u/Burning_Toast998]

I own it, but I'm going through a long list of board games before I learn how to play it.

Just moved here and this is exactly the kind of thing I've been hoping to find. I'm mostly in the medium light camp too with a couple heavy games I never get to the table. Might have to swing by one of these once I'm settled in a bit more.

If I didn't have family obligations, I'd join you all to see what was up. Commenting mostly to say that if you don't get traction here, cross-post to https://www.reddit.com/r/hawaiigamers/ as well.

I need a gaming group that meets up on weekends. Sending dm.

Root is a tough game to get into, but its become a favorite. If I was still living on Oahu I'd tap in. Best of luck, aloha

Other realms is always solid to check out for game nights

I believe plural of dingus is dingi. I could be wrong

[u/bismarkbutt → u/pkaorub]

because i tossed time to look up what kind words end in -i when in plural form: the probable origin of the word dingus is form the dutch word 'ding' meaning thing. my intended meaning of the word is "silly idiot". words with a greek or latin origin sometimes end in -i but there are probably exceptions that i can't be bothered to look up.
