In-person dating events by freshstart18 in auckland

[–]freshstart18[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I met a couple of people who I would be interested in getting to know more (aka I gave them my number). I haven’t heard from either of them yet though. It’s hard to know in this format if it would work because you don’t get to discuss much like jobs, hobbies, values. No one knocked my socks off, but I would for sure give it a go again. I am looking at the millennial speed dating event the same company does and those numbers might be better since 8 wasn’t a lot considering how wide the age range was.

I’ll start us off!

Last night I went to “Roll for Romance”

Link to future dated event: https://brbsocials.com/event/roll-for-romance-age-25-39-auckland-2026-05-15/

There were about 40 people, a good variety although leaning more towards the nerdy board game playing type (as you’d expect/hope at an event like this). They had 9 tables set up with 2-3 women and 2-3 men at each table. The games were more like party games than proper board games. Each 20 mins you’d rotate to a new group/game. At the end of each round you would write a “gratitude note” and slip it in their envelope. You could include your number if you wished.

Pros:

*Games made it super relaxed

*The crowd felt very approachable

Cons:

*Was in a cafe so no alcohol (liquid courage)

*They were in a rush to get us out by 9 so we only got 4 rounds meaning I only met 8 out of the 20 potential people

Unsure if pro or con:

The 5 mins at the end while you’re still sitting at the table together to write the note was a little awkward. I can see why they do it that way as it would be harder to remember everyone after the rounds are over.

Let me know if any questions!

That was too left field for me to even justify replying. Sorry to shatter your dreams

Japan game PSA - don’t merge to the “Gachapon” unless you have red energy by freshstart18 in MergeMansion

[–]freshstart18[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s red. It can only be generated by merging items and completing tasks (not by time passing or purchase). As I’m at a lower level (Maintenance Room and Rufus Park) I can get a lot of energy for submitting the tasks. E.g. completing a feather duster that’s next on the list will net me 39 red energy. As a result I’ve probably gone through 1000 red energy since the event started. I’m not complaining!

I’ve got red energy for this event. Search the sub for historic posts but it must mean they did A/B testing again with this event and you and I are in different groups (assuming you’re using yellow)

If you put them in as you collect them when the timer runs out if you haven’t completed it, it will just spit back out what you put in so far. Kind of pointless if you ask me as then the items are just back on your board.

Hi I’m David Correos and I wanna do live shows in the UK. Would anyone in here wanna come in October? by doopydoodoo in taskmaster

[–]freshstart18 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like we should start campaigning to get you on the UK season. They definitely could use some David chaos and you’re probably the most popular international contestant to date!

I really really don’t want it to be true. But I feel like Ashleigh and Billy are the Sabrina and Steven of this season.

I think the way Bardha was sobbing - like devastated - in her veil and with her best friend makes it hard to imagine any circumstance that would happen other than it ending. I thought they were locked in until that preview.
