 re in the middle room\, accessible via the bar or the restaurant.\nWe star
 t play as soon as we have enough people to get a table going.\nWe will be 
 getting our bills at 9:30pm so we are all settled by 10:00pm.\nRamparts do
 esn't close until well after 10:00pm so there isn't a rush for us to get o
 ut or anything.\n\n++++++++++++++++++++++++\n\nFor those new or haven't be
 en in awhile\, here is some basic information about our meetup:\n\n1. Know
  How to Play the Game: Every member of the Alexandria Euchre Club must kno
 w how to play the game of Euchre to attend a meetup. If you know the game\
 , but it has been years since you've played\, that is fine as we've all be
 en there and will be patient while it comes flooding back to you.\n2. New 
 To The Group: If you have never been\, we are a friendly group and welcome
  everyone to come. Very few people come with a friend or spouse. What this
  means is that it will not be awkward to arrive alone. It is better than a
  happy hour because it is easy to make conversation about cards. You don't
  have to even ask the dreaded "what do you do?" question. If you come thre
 e times\, you are a regular. Also\, house rules are that we play stick the
  dealer (ask if you don't know this variation).\n3. Correct Table Count: E
 uchre is a 4 person game--yes\, I know there are 3 and 6 person variations
 \, but most people prefer the 4 person game. What this means is that if yo
 u sign-up\, we are counting on you to be there. The deadline for RSVP is 2
  days prior to the meet-up. Please update by that time\, especially if you
  are going to cancel your RSVP. If you get 3 "no shows" and you'll only be
  able to sign up via an organizer.\n4. The Waiting List: If this month is 
 like the previous months\, we will have a waiting list. Please be consider
 ate and honor your RSVP. Of course\, if you are sick and on death's door w
 e don't want you to come out and get the rest of us sick\; however\, if no
 t please do come play. A good evening of food\, drink\, cards\, and friend
 ship may be all that you need to be more productive the next day. If you a
 re on the waiting list I am expecting you to either remove yourself if you
  don't want to be considered for an open slot\, or check the site (or emai
 l) so you know you've been promoted to an RSVP of YES when a slot opens up
 .\n5. Costs: There are some costs associated with meetup -- I have to pay 
 Meetup every 6 months for listing on their website. They don't work off of
  advertising fees. We pass the bowl around and ask people to throw a $1 in
  each time they come.\n\nThanks everyone... looking forward to seeing ya !
