Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Hello. This is the US division of the Half Life Battlefield Dodgeball Meet Up, and I partially got the idea from reading about the Fallout meet ups, but ours could still be something unique, such as possibly including a dodgeball event using a set of rules inspired by the NES Super Dodgeball game, and more. I’ll be open to discuss any suggestions or modifications to the sample of the plans.

Read more details about it on a European division post I made for the meet ups at https://lemmy.world/post/35749413

The image attached to this post shows a potential location for the meet up, set on 268 acres in New York. We can use this location as an example, since the official location is TBD.

$899,000 / 6 Factions = $149,833 / 4 options = $37,458 / cost of each option below to show how many people are the goal.

HEADCRAB OPTION: $50 (750 people per faction goal)

HOUNDEYE OPTION: $100 (375 people per faction goal)

BULLSQUID OPTION: $100 (375 people per faction goal)

STRIDER OPTION: $1,000 (38 people per faction goal)

Judging by the numbers above, the number of people who choose options to attend the event:

6 factions x people for HOUNDEYE = 2,250 people +

6 factions x people for BULLSQUID = 2,250 = 4,500 + 228

6 factions x for STRIDER = 4,728 people / 2 year plan =

2,364 people for the first event goal
