Anyone actually interested in casual chess meetups around LA?
What's up LA people - want to get some real opinions on this.
Been thinking about organizing some kind of relaxed chess gathering in the city. Nothing competitive or serious - just people meeting at coffee shop or bar to play few games and hang out. Would be welcoming for all skill levels, especially beginners who want to learn.
Before I put time in this idea, wondering:
- Would this be something you'd actually show up to?
- What would make it fun instead of weird/uncomfortable?
- Any immediate red flags that would keep you away?
Not trying to sell anything here - just checking if people would genuinely be interested in this type of thing. As fitness trainer I meet lot of people but curious about chess community specifically.
Any real feedback would be helpful, thanks.
