Ok everyone, here's what I've found out so far. While Galloping Ghost seems to have more games, the layout isn't that great for groups, and it is a $15 entry charge. The only area in the GG where we could gather as a group would be one of the private rooms, which require extra money to reserve, and are booked until August. While it is a good all ages option, I just don't see it being the best fit for what we're looking for.
At Headquarters Beercade, there is no entry fee, and we can reserve a table for free. There is also the option to reserve a private area that can fit 20-25 people for $250. If we get a decent headcount, that could break down to around $10-15 per person, and would give us a private space to gather, drink, play some CAH and remember Ryan. I'm waiting to hear back as to how they handle payment for the space, since it might be a bit difficult with all of us coming from different areas and not having met in person before. I have asked if there is an option to get tables out front reserved for free, perhaps in a corner where we could gather away from the main crowd. Please don't think I'm trying to set us apart or be anti-social, but it would be nice to have a hub where we can hang out easily.
Finally, we need to work out a final date and time. Friday the 19th seemed like a front runner, and if that works for people, I can make the reservation for 7:00, as long as a few people can be there by then to claim the space (I can't make it into the city until around 8:00). To try and figure this out, I created a survey to let the majority rule. I myself can't make Saturday the 20th work, but if that works for most people, then that's when we'll get together! Please follow the link below, and we'll nail down a final date and time!
