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. |

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? |

The venue would be private and we'd have our own DJ till 2am |

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 would be interested as well it was great fun at the last one
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. |

Good to see that people still want to attend socials. Sadly the one I organised in April flopped and had to be changed to a wee corner in a pub lol |

I heard the smaller social was still a success, people enjoyed themselves. Don't think some people appreciate how difficult and time consuming organising socials can be!xxxx |

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 |
