Really Big Sign Hard to miss.  



A casual dinner time gathering in a "Denny's like" environment. 

 

Club Attire Encouraged but not Required

 

GLBT, Fashion Models, Cosplayers, Goths, DGNers, Ex DGNers, Re-Goths, Goths for a day, the Spiritually Inclined, General weirdos, Totally normal open-minded people.

Horror, Movie and Sci-Fi buffs (especially SW, ST, BSG and GoT ofc fans.), MTG players, Ingressers, Science & History buffs.

ALL ARE WELCOME!!! 

If you don't like hugs this is the wrong place.

 

Like all DGN events, this is NOT particularly kid friendly*. 
 

Hope to see you there! Please invite any and all you think might be REMOTELY  interested!

Bring a good attitude! Please help Invite! If you want a card ask!  If you really want one ask here in this topic. 

 

*like DGN itself, this is not "kid friendly".  You can bring them but No F-Bombs will be held back.  No sexual innuendos (or straight up sex talk) will be spared.  If you can't get a sitter and your kids are not SUPER well behaved leave them in a kennel at home with food & water. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is NOT the place to post about how you're going somewhere else, or doing something else or intentionally not coming or some other BS.  Thanks. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~

That being said, Please help us get the word out!

 

Looking forward to seeing you!

 

If you would like one of our weekly "The Gathering" cards (Some Examples). Ask in person at The Red Apple <--- key step. 

*If you really want to make sure you get one, just ask here (not in the FB page, that will be futile).  Whoever has asked for a card (here) has priority. **

 

Cards Fine Print

**If for some reason there are not enough cards to go around  (There are typically only 7)

Note:  Ask at The Gathering for a card (first come first serve, with the following exceptions)

1. Asking in this topic means you have priority over someone who has not requested a card.  Everyone that asks here (should) get one before someone who has not asked in this topic.
2. If your name is not in this topic you will not receive a card at The Gathering until those listed here have asked and received a card at the restaurant. 
3. Cards for Permanent Benefactors will be held until it's clear they aren't coming provided they've already asked here.  (If you are unsure what this is don't worry about it or have a look here)
4. If you've asked here, just ask at the gathering and you should get a card with no problem. 
5. The order in which you ask here is vaguely "the sooner you ask the higher the priority" but it is very hard to keep track of.  If you wait until less than 24 hours before the event you risk not getting a card.

 

One card is made for everyone that asks here +2 extra (typically but not always as the extras may vary).

No one except Permanent Benefactors own a particular card number.  If you slacked off or there is a screw up with you getting the card number you wanted, hopefully, you can just trade for a particular card hasslefree.

 

Corporate summary:  Take the whole 2 minutes and ask. If it's not worth two minutes, you don't really want one.

 

It is hopeful that none of the above will be necessary as everyone who wants a card IS GOING TO SAY THEY WANT A CARD HERE RIGHT?  lol

 

Hopefully none of the above will be super necessary and there will never be any drama over the theoretically "for fun" cards.  (there never has been)      But please request a card HERE if you want one.

My plan is to go to all gatherings unless I'm really sick.  

 

Normally I would not post a "i cant go" post since if people did that we would have 100 replies and it would discourage attendance.  

 

But, if I lose it the whole thing  (House Spiral) might collapse.  I have a guy that I can sell/trade the last of my collectables (which i figured out how to milk for awhile until they are gone)  to but he is only available at the exact dang time as the gathering (and it takes awhile to trade / sell MTG cards).   I'm really trying hard to not have things go south but doing the math, in 2 months at the current pace, my credit cards will be maxed out and the two largest HS "hope for the future" (YouTube and HouseSpiral.com both of which will eventually loop around and help everything else, long LOOOONG term I'd hoped that it might turn into something like a real job also) will have to stop.   

 

So i'm making the cards for the gathering right now, but I'll have to organize all the trades tonight as best I can and then do them all tomorrow to take one for the team and try and not undersell what little I have left (and I found a pretty big $$ magic card I didn't realize i had) and put everything i get into the credit cards or the bank account for HS stuff as usual.

Please don't hang me for the suggestion, but is there anything wrong with cutting back on the number of Gatherings per month and other things that eat money so that focus can be put towards the infrastructure of House Spiral?
