Hey Gaymers! Our next irl meetup is going to be Maryoke, that's karaoke at Mary's, the queer bar in East ATL. There is no cover before 9 pm, and the cover is $5 after. I plan to be there a bit beforehand so that we can gather together outside. Let me know if you want to join, and see y'all there!
Hey y’all! Just a friendly reminder that the Battle and Brew meetup is this Saturday, starting at 2 pm. Let me know if you’re planning on coming so I can have an approximate head count and can look out for you day of. Hope to see a lot of us there!
Anybody wanna meet up and play some commander? I'm still pretty new, but I've got a friend who wants to learn and a few Precons we can use!
I'm 36, a mom, and trans. I know there's LGS meetups, but I'd rather game with other gays in a less competitive environment if I can.
On the other hand, if you've got Intel on a LGS game night where the vibe is friendly, lemme know!
Hey everyone! I recently moved to ATL from SF and not to sound like a Debbie Downer but I’ve had a hard time making gay friends in the city. It seems like everyone already has a solid group of friends that are hard to break into. I’ve always had a pretty easy time making friends but this has been hard to be honest. Any tips for a semi-athletic gaymer trying to find some friends in the city? Open to any and all suggestions!
Hey y'all! We're going to have our first non-DragonCon official meetup next month. We're going to Battle & Brew on October 5th, 2:00 PM. For those not in the know, B&B is a video game restaurant and bar, and I can personally attest to how delicious their food/drinks are. They've won awards! Here's the website if you wanna check it out: https://www.battleandbrew.com/
Let me know if you decide to come, either through post or by message, so there's an approximate head count. See ya there!
Anyone have any ideas for places to meet irl and things to do when we get there?
My one idea is Battle & Brew, it’s a great place if you haven’t been yet!
Just a friendly reminder that we’re having our meetup today at 6:35 PM, outside Hyatt Hanover AB. It’s right after an event on the diversity track called Latinx Cosplay Magic: A Celebration of Diversity.
I’ll be near the entrance/exit in my Loki outfit (see my posts). Feel free to message me on here or on the discord if you can’t find us.
After considering all the possibilities, I have planned the DragonCon meetup for Saturday, 6:35 PM, outside Hyatt Hanover AB! I picked this location/time bc it’s right after an event on the diversity track that looks cool, Latinx Cosplay Magic: A Celebration of Diversity. Also, it’s inside bc a/c.
People can plan to go together, just go to the meetup after, or continue hanging out (there’s a diversity in Star Wars panel at 7 we could also go to together). And if all else fails, see you at the Spectrum party!
As the title says. Someone pointed out that the Spectrum party might not be the best time because it is hard to get in, which I agree with. Maybe sometime a couple hours or so before Spectrum? If not that, then when and where would you say?
All right, who's going to DragonCon?! I'll be there all 5 days, and I have like one and a half cosplays ready lol
Hey folks! So I was able to request and get mod privileges for this subreddit after it was abandoned over a year ago, and I plan on reviving it and making it a great and welcoming place. If it gets enough traction, which I’m hopeful it will, I’ll also start a new discord. As for me, I’ve been a long-time Reddit user and Atlanta resident who just wants to connect and hang with other gaymers. Looking forward to hanging with all of you!
Just wanted to leave this here so people know what happened. Basically, I started modding the subreddit and started a discord server in hopes of building a community of similar people I could talk and hang out with. I eventually realized I didn't have the time, energy, or desire required to continue doing so. And the discord was practically dead anyway. The discord no longer exists, and I plan on stepping down as a mod. I'll see y'all around.
Hey Everyone, my name is Clayton. I’m 35 years old, I’m also Gay! I love to dance.
I'm in SC but have been traveling a lot recently as I've finally gotten the confidence to explore. I'm a bear primarily interested in meeting other bears for friends (and single.. if something sparks) but my first goals are to connect with others online and make eventually learn about some trips and events I can get into.
Hello all! With the recent activity on the discord some folks wanted to do a virtual meet and greet. I made a questionnaire with a few questions to determine when folks would like to participate. It should happen in 2 weeks on the official discord ( https://discord.gg/etW46dT ). The questionnaire will be active for a week, after which I'll announce when the virtual meet up will be.

Hello everyone! Just a quick update. I updated the official discord server a bit! We now have a few roles you can add yourself, and some channels have been changed. Feel free to join the discord at: https://discord.gg/etW46dT.
I have updated the subreddit rules. Nothing major that will change much about the sub, there just weren't any before.
I'll be posting about some more fun stuff later tonight so keep an eye out.
Hello, I hope everyone is having a fantastic day. If you're not having a good day, I hope I can make it even a little bit better. I am your neighborhood yandere hoping to DM a game in Georgia. This is a homebrew game using a flexible Homebrew magic system made for 5e that allows for all sorts of specialized spell casters with a basically infinite amount of possibilities ( maybe even infinite.) From drop dead studios. Therefore two spell casters can be as different as a fighter is to a wizard. You might even find yourself being a melee spellcaster.
The campaign takes place inside a elitist magic military academy connected to the Royal family to start off with. This is known to be the best military program in the entire kingdom. within the obsidian owl elite Battle academy you are a soldier first and a student's second. most of the people who attend this academy are from well recognize military family and high-standing Noble families. Though those who show that they have potential are also accepted into the school. The school is well known throughout the entire kingdom and every ruler sense the first hero King Tasmanian Phoenix blood has graduated from this school. This year three of the rule of candidates have reached the age of maturity to enter the school. Still trouble is just around the corner for some reason monsters have become restless, tensions between the Nations that board in a kingdom have grown, and a new threat known as the Dark Continent has begun to rise.
So this campaign is heavily focused on role-playing, character story, and group play. The group's fun and enjoyment will always take priority the campaign story will still find a way to shine through but the group is free to make it s own decisions and will not be railroaded. I do ask that you be respectful and considerate to everyone at the table. Anyone is welcome at my table as long as you are respectful, considerate, accepting, and not an asshole.
So I am planning a meeting in Swift Cantrell Park at 12pm on Sunday and Monday this is not session zero and you do not have to come to either of them. This is just to gauge interest, talk to anyone who is interested, find out availability, get a read on people, find out what you're expecting from the campaign, find out what you want from the campaign, and just get a better understanding of what you might want and what kind of person you are.

Hey, so we have been quiet a while. Is the discord hopping or something? Did the human malware hit us hard? Everyone alright? Stay safe, and game with confidence. Personally, I'm playing a lot of Hades, Stellaris and Smash. What's everyone else playing?
