Retro Night

Third Tuesday of every month, from 6:00 PM.

An evening for anyone who likes old machines, whether you grew up with them, collect them, repair them, write software for them, or have simply never seen a floppy disk in person and are curious what the fuss was about.

Bring something you're working on, something that's broken, or nothing at all. All ages, all experience levels. It meets at 302 W Washington St, Freeburg, IL 62243, and it's free.

[TBD: confirm where it meets, that it's free, and that all ages are welcome, and give a real end time. The live calendar says 11:59 PM, which may just mean "until we're done".]

Bring Your Own, or Use Ours

For those who are interested in the more modern, or at least more social, side of gaming, we've got the ability to host LAN parties.

Bring your own computer or console, or use one of ours, if hauling a tower across town isn't your idea of a good evening.

There is still nothing quite like everyone being in the same room. The trash talk lands better, the network is faster than anyone's internet, and nobody drops out because their upload died mid-match.

Thinking of organizing one? Tell us roughly how many people and what you want to play, and we'll work out the rest. Space, power, and network are the easy part. Ask about hosting one.

[TBD: any cost for a LAN party, and how many people fit?]

RSVPs

Events come in four kinds, and each event page says which kind it is.

• Just show up. No RSVP needed.
• RSVP if you can. It helps us know how many chairs to put out. You're welcome either way.
• RSVP required. Space is limited. When an event is full you can join the waitlist. If someone cancels, the next person on the list gets the seat automatically, and an email to say so.
• Paid admission. Pay when you RSVP. Your seat is held for 15 minutes while you check out. If checkout isn't finished by then, the seat goes back to the pool. Refunds are covered by the refund policy.

You need an account to RSVP. Each event page says how many seats one RSVP can reserve.

Can't make it after all? Cancel your RSVP from the event page or your profile, so someone on the waitlist can have your seat.

Never Miss One

• Events RSS feed for your feed reader.
• Subscribe to the calendar (iCal). Works with most calendar apps, and new events show up on their own.
• Each event page also has an "Add to calendar" link for just that event.

Want to Host Something?

If you have an idea for an event, a class, or a meetup that would fit here, tell us about it.

Come Along, Even If You Don't Know Anybody

That's rather the point of a club. Call 618-228-2235 or email scott@duensing.digital and we'll tell you what's on next.
