It's fun living out in the sticks, no clubs particularly close to me. Trying a new place in Augusta this weekend, and going to their other one for a tournament a couple weeks later. It seems like portland is likely the place to be for games

I live in Bangor and there is a small but thriving 40k community. Usually just some game shop owner hosts all the nerds in town and they bring what they like, magic d&d or wargames.

I might have to try driving up one of these weeks, little far for me unfortunately but the game scene where I am is nonexistant outside of driving to Augusta/Lewiston

When I used to travel for work I would search "boardgame group <city name>" very often there would be one in the local library.

If there isn't you could approach your local library and start your own group. This could also work at a restaurant. Pick a day when they aren't particularly busy and ask if you could have a group that day. Monday through Wednesday are usually good choices. Usually the restaurant is glad to have somebody coming around and buying drinks/food during their slack times. Be respectful and don't make a mess...

When I first moved to a new city the first thing I look at is actually Facebook groups lol. I refuse Facebook for everything else, but it's pretty clutch for these types of situations. It's usually a local game shop owner puts something on. Or the library sometimes.

Are you simple? He asked for advice on how to meet college age people and you respond "some of us already went."

I’m literally college age and I have the same problem. I’m not going to go back to college just to meet people my age?

Okay, good for you? OP asked for advice and I provided some and you think that it's not good enough for you. Have you heard of egocentric?
