Hi all,
Well I like the sound of all of your ideas so far.
Even though I have been keeping my mind open to ideas, I still have no gone any further than a swap meet idea, where we trade our unwanted, excess, and pre-loved SF goodies with each other...or the obvious: to go as a group to any sci fi movies on the big screen, obvious, but I am short on ideas too.  
One extra thought; there are many board games on the market, dating back to the 1930's probably. Surely some of us have games of an appropriate type that could be used for a games' night. This could be as simple as 8 people playing Star Trek Trivial Pursuit (which I think I have or maybe I have Star Wars) or as complex as a bunch more people, with several different games on the go at one time. Not as complex as D&D though
Will keep my thinking cap on though, and pilfer ideas from ohter people's groups, like a scavenger hunt..you know, find one Klingon warrior, two flux capacitors, a towel (A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. You can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta…wet it for use in hand-to-hand combat…wrap it around your head to ward off noxious fumes…any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the Galaxy, rough it … win through, and still know where his towel is, is clearly a man to be reckoned with,) and one member of the Deathwok clan (excuse spelling)
Ciao

Carmel

Subject: [SFFiG] What next?

Dear People,

Time for some input. I'm not going to say I'm stuggling for ideas, instead it's time to gather some ideas from our wider community. That sounds much better.

So what would you like to do? Tell us anything you'd like, no matter the logistics yet - someone may have an idea to make it work that you hadn't thought of.

 

Currently, short-term ideas include:

Show & Tell: Bring along your geeky possessions to show off.

Anime discussion: Tell everyone what your favourite anime is and why it should be their favourite as well!

Zone 3: Always a good excuse to shoot people.

Bowling: Fun, social, and then we can compete with other nearby sci-fi clubs :-D

 

Got other ideas?
