Hello, I'm 36 yo male looking for a group or just someone else to play irl ptcg. Unfortunately I cannot meet up at card stores near me cuz I work on Sundays. Feel free to message me or post here!

If anyone has any suggestions for other places to try and find ppl. To meet up. It's be greatly appreciated !

Is there a group of people interested in playing cards? I have a weekly group to play board games with, but they aren’t interested in card games like Canasta, Euchre, Hearts, Gin Rummy, etc… I’d love to get a semi regular group of people together to play somewhere in the Arlington area. Let me know your thoughts/suggestions!

I just moved here and im looking for my type of meeple

im close to manassas and willing to travel for fun

Seeking a game with real humans. Beer food football and an afternoon of world domination!

I'd love to find a group of friends to play some board games with. I've looked at some meetup groups and they don't really have a lot going on. Maybe thats because of COVID, but I figured I'd be proactive and look for some people myself! I'm 23 and just graduated college, age doesn't matter but it would be great if I could find some people around my age too. I live and work in Reston and enjoy a wide variety of games. I'll play anything from strategy to Euro to historical/wargames.

My wife and I (both 34) got really into board games during the pandemic and amassed a decent starting collection. We roped our 8-year-old son into playing most of the games with us, but he is burnt out on board games and now just addicted to Fortnite.

Having moved to NoVA (Fairfax County, VA specifically) in the summer before the pandemic, we only have a smattering of friends in the greater DC/VA/MD area and all of them are a little too far away for regular hangouts. So we are turning to the internet to look for new friends for our new hobby.

A few highlights of our current collection include Smallworld, Photosynthesis, Cosmic Encounter, Codenames, Catan, Gloomhaven, Star War Outer Rim, Splender, Ticket to Ride, and Secret Hitler though we are always open to trying and buying new games.

If you:
-are vaccinated against COVID-19
-prefer playing board games over going to the club
-like hanging out with other adults having adult conversations (with occasional adult language)
-like to have some drinks but always have a plan to get home safe
AND
-love friendly competition

then you might be exactly who we are looking for!

Send me a message or reply to this post and we'll exchange information and get our gaming on.

A while ago I posted that I may start hosting again with covid dying down a bit and people getting vaxxed. Obviously I didn't start hosting again not cause of the virus but cause I am in the process of moving to Maryland.

I will begin hosting again in August but from my new home near Upper Marlboro, MD. Obviously since this subreddit is about Northern Virginia and I'm going to be in Maryland, posting about it here makes little sense so I decided to start up a new subreddit.

I haven't done much with the new subreddit yet so its still using a basic reddit style sheet. Anywho here's a link to the new subreddit that will encompass all of the DMV area.

https://old.reddit.com/r/DMVBoardGaming/

Full details of when I'll be hosting are still undecided but when I know more I'll post them on reddit.

I've got the following board games available to the best offer (not free, sorry): Dos Rios (NIS), Toledo (NIS), One Night Revolution, Unspeakable Words (NIS), The Resistance, Arkham Horror. I'm in Arlington. Offers accepted.

Edit; all gone.

Now that folks are starting to get some covid shots, I figured I would post this to see interest in possibly starting up board game nights again soon and to see how everyone is doing.

I just got my first dose of the pfizer vaccine on Monday with the second scheduled early next month.

My board game purchasing habits came to nearly a halt over the past year since we weren't playing anymore so I don't have much in terms of new stuff since we last met.

Anywho let me know how you guys are doing and if you're interested in maybe starting up again sometime.

Due to lack of attendance I will be discontinuing the meetup group in early November if no one continues to come. I already paid $100 to renew the subscription in May to not have a single person come to a meetup since and do not plan on throwing away more money pointlessly.

For all those who are interested, I will continue as always to post scheduled meetups for our board game group on this sub.
