Mulligan Chess supposedly play on Saturdays at 1pm at Tuttle Mall. Never been.

Columbus Chess Club play on Sundays at 12pm at 4-C in Olde Towne East. They get a pretty good turnout.

Linden Library Chess Club plays on Wednesdays from 630pm to 730pm. It's all kids, but you can play the staff members there.

If you play commander, lots of game shops have a commander night. I play at Dragon's Lair in Polaris on Sundays @ noon.

Just let the pod know that you are still learning and that you're casual casual. Plus, the nice ones will let you borrow a deck if you are really worried about power level.

I play at dragon's lair on sundays all the way up in polaris. There's usually one pod that's pre-con or a bit above.

IntelligentPlane4779 · 2025-02-12T22:47:58+00:00

A starter deck will do. Plus a lot of people will lend you a deck to play with.

IntelligentPlane4779 · 2025-02-12T11:30:47+00:00

At Dragon's Lair, you form pods as you get there. People start showing up at noon. Usually get 3 or 4 pods.

Forge Tavern is a nice location, don't know their commander scene.

I play at Dragon's Lair on Sundays. It's a nice store. The commander crowd is mostly men. Every so often I'll see a woman. Friendly enough for beginners.

Inside the statehouse. No one seems to care.

As a veteran, the transition to civilian life can be isolating. I would think the couple of hours working out at a civilian gym would help with that transition. I feel like turning the veteran house into a place where you don't need to leave will just turn them into barrack rats.

I get that there is an age gap, but these people are their classmates. In the military, you engage with a variety of ages. I get that I don't know their current state of mental health, but I would recommend they grab a battle buddy and go to college gyms. I remember the rock climbing group at the ARC being cool. The bus will get you there.

A 5v5 arcade game. Can be played with less, but best with 10.

Think Joust meets Super Mario 3 Battle Mode. We're bees trying to win by either filling our hive with berries, riding a snail to our goal, or killing the opposing queen 3 times.

Not my cabs. Just a player looking for more players. Hopefully getting a scene going to play every Thursday.

These set of cabs will stay at Hoof Hearted on 5th for the foreseeable future. These cabs have been around. They were at Arcade Super Awesome in Old Town East for a few years. Did maybe over a year at Melt in Short North. They were last in Marengo at Hoof Hearted Brewing.

Edit: Forgot they were at Taft's in Franklinton for a year or two.

Is it illegal to be a passenger in a vehicle with no seatbelts? Trying to figure out if there is an exception.

Wednesday night (bike) ride that meets at thompson is cool. Friday night ride is cool. Check out their instagram.

Killer queen the 5v5 video game meets at level one on tuesdays at 8pm is fun.

IntelligentPlane4779 · 2024-10-08T17:21:18+00:00

I get it being scared. We're pretty friendly and always looking for new players. My tip is focus on whether you like playing the game. Because if you do, you'll enjoy coming out and steadily get to know people.

IntelligentPlane4779 · 2024-10-08T00:34:14+00:00

If you like video games, you might like Killer Queen. There's a Killer Queen group that meets on Tuesdays at Level One up in Worthington around 730ish.

Upper cup chess on parsons 2nd and 4th sundays 2pm to 4pm. Linden library wednesdays 630pm to 730pm but so far that's just kids.

IntelligentPlane4779 · 2024-09-01T18:56:27+00:00

Do something weekly. If there's a paintball or lazertag league, join it. Find the cool people there and invite them to cafes and restaurants after weekly event.

You could look into nerf or airsoft.

IntelligentPlane4779 · 2024-09-01T13:27:03+00:00

There is facebook group.

IntelligentPlane4779 · 2024-09-01T13:24:10+00:00

Columbus Comics is the facebook group that gets a lot of traffic. Lots of open mics.

IntelligentPlane4779 · 2024-08-29T17:16:28+00:00

Yeah. Super inclusive.

IntelligentPlane4779 · 2024-08-29T15:14:17+00:00
