The link to join the online events will be posted via that discord in the #current-sessions channel.

So hop on over to here: https://discord.gg/yzkwu7KS6t - join the server and follow these instructions:-
Go to the “#Rules” channel and add a react emote to both the Mission Statement and Community Guidelines to show that you have seen and read them.
Go to the #introduce-yourself channel and post a little introduction- its helpful to say how much BOTC experience you have, the fact that you live in the UK, anything else you want to share and you can always say that you were signposted to the server by Attikus (which is the name you will find me as on the Grimoire).

Once you have reacted to the rules and posted an introduction – you will get the “Townsfolk” role on the server which will allow you to see the channels.

Go to “Channels and Events” and I suggest you select “Server Event Notifications” and “Community Event Notifications”. If you don’t mind getting notifications about random games – then you can select pickup players EU friendly & pickup players US friendly – but for community and official games you don’t need to give yourself the pickup roles. Select your pronouns (if you want to) and you can add any other channels you may be interested in.

Then you will now be able to see #official-grim-event-signup channel – this is where you will find the Thursday and Saturday evening events (called "The Grim Goes to Europe / The Grim Goes to Europe (Saturday Edition)" and can click accepted (if you are definitely attending), tentative if you are maybe attending or decline if not attending.

The link to join games is posted into the #current-sessions channel.

Please do continue to come and play in the Thursday & Saturday games – but follow the instructions above to sign up via The Grimoire Discord please.

Thank you 😊
Neil / Attikus.

Join us for our monthly board gamers' meal at Wagamama this August! Discover more about them here

At the beginning of each month, we gather for a laid-back meal and chat about games, life, and, of course, more games. No pressure, just good company. Feel free to join for games before hand, the meal, or both! Remember to sign up individually for each event.

The boring adult bit:

Please ensure you sign up and include any plus ones on this (Meetup) event. Your attendance will not be counted on any other application, group or setting. If you do not sign up on the meetup event, there may not be space for you at the table.

PLEASE ENSURE YOU SIGN UP IN ADVANCE! Any late sign-ups may be refused if the booking cannot be adjusted. The final numbers will be taken the dayy before. If you remove yourself from the event during the day of the meal, or do not attend on the day, you may be asked to pay a deposit or no-show fee depending on the policy of the venue. This is an informal meal/gathering and the group has no allocated funds to cover no-shows.
Where possible the booking will be made under the "Exeter Board Gamers".

If you have any dietary concerns, please contact the venue in the first instance AT LEAST 10 DAYS IN ADVANCE. If you need support with dietary or menu concerns after speaking to the venue, you must contact the organiser (Caroline), AT LEAST 7 DAYS IN ADVANCE. Failure to give appropriate notice may result in the venue being unable to accommodate your dietary needs. If you have not taken appropriate steps in a timely manner to organise your dietary requirements, you may be asked to pay a deposit or no-show fee if you do not/cannot attend. Depending on the policy of the individual venue.

Some venues have a requirement for large groups to order a certain amount. Typically ordering 1x main course per attendee covers this. If you plan to attend but not to eat/have a main meal, please contact the organiser at least 10 days in advance.
By signing up for this event, you are confirming that you have read the above information and agree to any terms listed.

If you have any other questions, concerns or comments, please feel free to reach out! Looking forward to seeing you there!
