Question 1

Do I have to pay?

Accepted Answer

It's not mandatory, but we do ask kindly for a donation of £4 to cover costs for pens and paper and paint and such, which are shockingly expensive.

Question 2

What do I need to bring?

Accepted Answer

Just yourself! We will provide all artistic doo-dahs.

Question 3

So, how does it work?

Accepted Answer

We have different fun drawing games on each table. Instructions are provided but give us a shout and we'll gladly explain the rules of any of our games. We will call out every half hour or so for people to move around so everyone can have a go at everything.

Question 4

What about this big white/black board that everyone's sitting around and throwing paint at?

Our Communal Doodle™ is a space where you can get creative and draw anything you like. Use the provided chalks, paint markers, ink, rollers, paper cut-outs and more to create a Big Mess.

Question 16

Is this a high-brow event where we will learn interesting and important skills?

Accepted Answer

Good lord no! This is entirely an event for fun, there will certainly be no learning.

Question 17

I have just arrived and I'm sitting here confused. Should I just start?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there are instructions for each game on the table, please feel free to get cracking on them. We don't really directly curate the event, but if you need any help we will gladly try our best to poorly explain the games.

Question 18

What do I do if there's no space in the Snug?

Accepted Answer

We will try and accommodate everyone. If there's no room in the Snug, we will try and bring materials to you at a table in the main room. Please make yourself known and try and sit close to the Snug so we don't lose you!

Question 19

Who's that nerd taking photos? What's that for?

Accepted Answer

We will be taking photos for the website and social media so that people can vicariously live the DnD experience. If you don't want to be in them, just let us know and we will gladly exclude those photos.
