''Insert something about casual events and that IRC is great when in doubt''
Events don't have to be serious affairs to make something. If its something of interest to the community suggest it, run it and enjoy it! Previous events have included [[Archive:Events/Yuri%27s_Night|Yuri's night]], [[Board_Gamesday|games days]] and [[Pubspace|pubspace]]. If you're not sure if people will be interested and want to find out before mailing the list try asking on [[IRC]]
 
'''NOTE''' if you want a to make your event a regular thing (e.g. pot plant fancier's anonymous) follow these guides but also read our info on [[Recurring]] events.
