Considering getting my organising hat back on and possibly putting together a a social night in Aberdeen, maybe September/October time.

Would there be much interest for one?

Great start!

Jedzy I'd be trying to fill big shoes, I heard great things from your socials!

Would people prefer a ticketed private event or a free event in a reserved area of a local bar?

Depends what kinda scale you’re thinking. I reckon most would be happy with the pub scenario, suppose it depends on your numbers

I can't comment on other socials organised but for previous one I organised that requested people be verified (thats verified by anyone,not just someone associated with the social) there was many opportunities to get verified prior to the event.

Myself, my co-organiser and several other lovely local people gave up a lot of their spare time to meet unverified members for their tickets and to verify them.

@ifyouseekamy thanks

I enjoyed myself but I’m too busy now to organise another

A private area in a bar might be just as good - I enjoyed the last one that was like that

Think this may need to be a ticketed event as there are very few places available that have free reserved/private areas in the city centre

How would people feel about buying tickets that include entry, buffet and a wee goody bag maybe?

Yeah I would be happy with that.

I’d be keen to accompany someone, so I at least have an opportunity to have one familiar face and share pre drinks.

Anyone interested give me a shout. May ease your nerves too.

I was a very shy guy so I guess the best place to go would be the bar and just say hello to everyone

Even though I don’t drink due to health reasons

Private room or bar.

Maybe nibbles.

Leaving out party games, it’s a big turn off for a lot of people. Party bags are unnecessary. A raffle would be ok.

Would be nice to see people coming from further afield. Definite limit on single males.

Just our thoughts.

On the flip side I enjoyed the party games. They got people mingling well. Raffle is a great idea and as for limiting single males..... again why do we continually target them ???

I have never limited single males at a social I have organised, and don't plan to with this one. From experience they are usually the minority at socials anyway.

I don't think I could do a social without a raffle, just wouldn't be the same.

Im open to all suggestions
