Welcome to the Gamagora Geekhouse Members Handbook, your guide to geeking at the Geek Lounge.

LOUNGE HOURS

Tues thru Sat   11am to 11pm
Sunday              Noon to 11pm
Monday             CLOSED

You can come anytime the Lounge is open, however if no one is in the Lounge by 7:30pm we will close early. If you are planning on coming in after 7:30pm you can send us a message on Discord so we don’t leave. These hours may vary on holidays or special occasions, but we’ll let you know in the #news-updates channel in Discord when that happens.

COMMUNICATION

Speaking of Discord, the Gamagora Discord Server is THE hub for all lounge related communications. All news and updates will be posted on the Gamagora Discord Server. Members are constantly communicating on our multiple channels and if you have questions, suggestions or just want to say hi, DM us anytime on Discord. Socializing is why we opened the Geekhouse.

GAME NIGHTS

In addition to communicating with us and other Members, Discord is where you can see the calendar and RSVP for game nights. There are different types of games played on different nights, including Quick and Easy games, Light Strategy Games, Long Complex Strategy Games, games from a Specific Designer, as well as in person and online tournaments.

ENTERING THE LOUNGE

This part is super simple, check yourself in on the by scrolling or going to the search bar and either dragging your name to the left or opening your account and marking clocked in.

If you’re coming in for a scheduled game night you can find your table number in the associated Discord channel.

Otherwise help yourself to an available table.

GUESTS

The Geek Lounge is open for Guests every Friday. We host a light strategy game night every other Friday which is a great way for your friends and family to see what the Lounge is all about. There’s a limit of one guest per member and all guests must be at least 21 years old.

ATMOSPHERE

It’s the responsibility of all of us to make sure the Geekhouse is a warm, welcoming, and comfortable place to hang out. Be kind and respectful. Laughing, yelling, and even swearing can all be done in fun and kept respectful. The lounge is a 21 and older hang out so adult themes are allowed, but again, keep it respectful. Crude, sexually explicit, racist, homophobic conversations, or any general bigotry will not be tolerated. These rules also apply to conversations on the Gamagora Discord.

Because the lounge is an enclosed space with limited air flow, and because we want everyone to have a great experience, strong smells are not allowed. This includes body odor, smoke (all types), excessive perfume, or extensive flatulence. If we notice a strong smell, we may message you the next day to let you know. If the smell is too strong we may have to immediately address the issue. This is a super awkward conversation to have for everyone involved, so bathe, change your clothes and/or air out before coming in.

Guests must also do their part to keep the Geekhouse vibe. If there is a problem with a guest, it is the responsibility of the Member who invited them to address any issues. If there are continued issues we will ask that that particular guest does not return.

FOOD & DRINKS

Snacks and drinks go hand in hand with hanging out and playing games. All our snacks are self serve. Grab what you want and let us know what you had when you check out at the end of the evening. Alcoholic beverages and coffee can be ordered at the bar and will be added to your tab.

While no outside food or drink is allowed, you are welcome to pause your game, leave to grab a bite and then come back to finish your gaming adventure. Just let us know approximately when you’ll be back.

CHECKING-OUT

Before you check out for the evening make sure your table is ready for the next group of geeks. This means putting your game back in the box in roughly the same way you found it, putting it back on the shelf in alphabetical order in the section you got it from, throwing away all your garbage, and depositing your glasses, bottles, etc. in the tubs next to the garbage. If you got really crazy and a table needs a wipe down, let us know and we’ll take care of it. If while playing or putting a game away a sleeve or bag needs replaced, let us know. We have plenty of extras.

Finally, let us know that you are done for the day. We’ll add your snack tab to your visit-fee and check you out.

Remember, if you plan on coming back later in the day you don’t need to close out your tab. Just let us know that you’ll be back, and we’ll keep your tab open.

For Friday guests, all items including the guest visit fee will be placed on the Member-who-invited-them’s tab.

EMERGENCIES

In case of a fire, alert us and then get to safety. There are fire extinguishers located throughout the Geekhouse and if you can put the fire out, please do, but it is not your responsibility. You just need to make sure you and as many people as possible get to safety.

If as a collective we need to exit the building, say for a fire, earthquake, alien invasion, don’t just get in your car and leave. Please meet up across the street in the 3rd Street parking lot. That way we can make sure everyone got out safely.

If there is a medical emergency, first let us know so we can contact the appropriate emergency response teams. Yelling across the Geekhouse is adequate to alert us, plus, we have a number of medical professionals who frequent the Geekhouse who may be able to help.

For less than emergency injuries or ailments, we do have a first aid kit. Again, just let us know. Paper cuts are serious and will be treated with a unicorn bandage. If you are sick, don’t come into the Geekhouse. This includes, but is not limited to: COVID, flu, colds, zombie infections or werewolf bites.
