Hi members! There have been some concerns regarding RSVPs & attendance at our events.
Unfortunately in the recent past we’ve had members who responded “YES” to the Meetup event RSVP not showing up; this leaves folks on the wait list (typically 8-10 more people on said list!) out in the cold 🙁
Due to limited space at the venue & the consistent waiting list, we kindly request your cooperation in ensuring that those who want to attend our EGL game nights are able to do so.
To that end, effective Jan 2025 we have implemented the following attendance policy:
- Members who RSVP but do not attend (no-show) will receive -1 point
- Members who RSVP and do attend will receive +1 point
For example, if Johnny RSVPs for 3 meetups but only attends 1, they will receive (-1) + (-1) + (+1) = -1 point.
Members who reach -2 points will receive a warning, and those who reach -3 points may be banned from the group.
Please ensure you check in with the host upon arrival at future events, so that your attendance can be marked.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
If you have RSVPd but decide not to attend, PLEASE UPDATE your RSVP on meetup by 3pm Monday at the latest! We always have people on the wait-list, so ask you to be considerate by providing sufficient notice to those waiting so they may attend. Frequent Nth-hour cancellations may be grounds for dismissing one from the group.
