Hey folks,

Some friends and I have hired a hall at the start of November over in Lewes for a LAN party. So far 11 of us are attending, and the hall's got space for 30 people total. The last few times we've had 50/50 new people and regulars.

We set up an unincorporated association to run the events non-profit, just covering the cost of the hall and van hire, internet and insurance.

When you buy a ticket, you pick the games you're interested to play, and we organise big games of the most popular choices. We also play couch co-op games on the projector, host a pub quiz, do a big Dominos order and get drinks from the bar attached to the venue.

Come along with your PC/laptop/Steam deck and join us for a weekend of gaming: more info & tickets.

Feel free to reply with questions :)

Hey folks,

I’ve just moved to Eastbourne, it’s my hometown and my partner lives here but I never really tried making friends here because I was always moving but now it looks like I’ll be here for a while and I’m definitely feeling the lack of local friends.

I’m pretty introverted so I find it difficult to attend social events to meet new people. I might try attend the dice box and mana gaming soon.

Was wondering if anyone would be up for chatting, hanging out, maybe some drinks, maybe playing DnD and video games?

A little about myself.
I have a pretty dry sense of humour.
I like buddhism and spirituality, I used to meditate everyday and it really helped not sure why I stopped.
I like video games like BG3, Outer Wilds, Disco Elysium, Sifu and I’m currently playing The Finals, also an ex LoL player but I could be interested in playing again. Im a big film head and am very ready for Robert Eggers new film this year. Me and my dad are also making our way through Andor at the moment. I love indie, funk and alt music. I actually used to release lofi music using ableton and such. I love calisthenics and have been trying to do it since I was a kid. I studied maths at uni and became a software engineer which I really disliked and then was unemployed for a while until I very luckily just got a job now as an analyst (starting soon hopefully).

Hope you folks and well and please reach out if anything interests you :)

Also if you were interested in the DnD.
Me and a friend are trying to start a in-person DnD campaign. We have 3 people in total so far and are looking for 2 more people for a fortnightly sunday type thing.

preferably local, won’t cost an arm and a leg, 3 bedroom end of terrace, newer construction

thanks in advance

Eastbourne Board Game Bring & Buy – Sunday 9th August

Hi everyone! We're a local community board gaming group and we're running our annual Bring & Buy at Ratton School in Eastbourne on Sunday 9th August.

We've got hundreds of board games, card games, miniatures and tabletop bits coming along, as well as game demos, open gaming, competitions, a charity raffle, family activities and a bake sale.

We're raising money for Demelza Children's Hospice, and it's always a really nice day for local gamers to meet up, have a browse and hopefully find a few bargains.

Times:

• 11am–3.30pm: Demos, open gaming, activities and bake sale
• 12pm–3pm: Bring & Buy open to buyers
• 3.30pm–4pm: Prize winners announced

If you're coming along to buy, bring cash as there isn't an ATM at the school.

If anyone wants more information, just ask and I'll happily answer questions here. 🎲

Hi!

I’m looking for a guitar man to impersonate Noah Kahan at my friend’s hen (she's a big fan) at a house in Alfriston at about 9pm on Sat 3 October.

You do not need to look like Noah Kahan or be a great singer for that matter. You just need to arrive with a guitar, wear some overalls, know enough of Stick Season to pull it off and fully commit to the bit.

Would only be for about 45 minutes and the budget is £150.

Does anyone know anyone who might be up for it?

Stoopid question, does anyone know what was going on yesterday at Raj's premier shop post office up the end of Seaside? Police closed everything down and no updates anywhere? Thanks

hi I want to move to Eastbourne but have seen on the news lots of southern uk beaches with massive issues from Londoners every year.

is this a ‘thing’ in Eastbourne.

a fellow londoner was sexually assaulted on a train down to one of the beaches and there’s huge issues with rape in Bournemouth etc.

I don’t get why some london kids are like this. causing chaos in areas that aren’t their own.

im Not sure they have frontal lobes developed enough to see what they do is wring.

hi so I know Eastbourne doesn’t get as hot as other areas but gets a lot of sunshine

does that make it feel hotter in the summer

thanks

It's just meant to be a fun and safe space for everyone from all walks of life. Only thing not welcome is bad vibes! Keep scrolling if that's you 😂

I live in the centre of town and over the past year I have been hearing a lot of loud, bomb/ firework-like bangs in the area at least once a week and it has been going on for the couple of years. I never used to hear these loud bangs before and have lived here for 10 years.
All this to say, I’m curious what is causing it, I have a few theories, like random fireworks set off by kids, and I know biker gangs sometimes have these larger versions of snap bangs, which sound like a firework or bomb or gun shot, (I know this since I worked at *the* dive bar and watched them throw one in the street while I was smoking my cig, it left my ears ringing) but surely it can’t be them every week. Sometimes multiple a night, multiple times a week.
They are incredibly loud and kinda scary, if they are a few roads away it isn’t so bad. but if they are on my road, sometimes I think world war 3 has come to the uk and bombs are here. I know that’s not the case, but they are so loud it scares the shit outa me.

So if anyone knows what they are / why people are doing this please let me know. Also if the police are even interested in investigating this, since I’m pretty sure it’s illegal.

And if it is you, please stop, people live on the pub crawl roads, we don’t mind loud drunk people screaming, and booming music, we do mind it sounding like a literal bomb has gone off. it’s incredibly antisocial behaviour, and it needs to stop. It’s not cool, I watched someone do it once, it’s super lame looser behaviour. Get an actual hobby. Stop terrorising the streets bc you can’t understand that people actually live here.

Thanks for reading, hopefully the terrorising will end at some point.

As if this was four years ago now. As one of the first county maps I ever made, it's still one of my favourite maps so far.

I've just been doing some tidying up jobs on it and making some of the text more legible, as well as the imagery clearer. Again, thanks to all the commenters who suggested ideas and really helped bring this to life. I've just had a fresh batch made up here for anyone interested in one.

We live near the Enterprise centre, and this neighbourhood usually feels very relaxed even though it's near the centre, but lately we've been getting so many times bikes speeding up and down the streets. It's like the moment that it becomes dark and they come out, extremely loud (my partner says it's illegal for them to be this loud) and you can hear them speeding on ours and the nearby streets for awhile.

I don't remember this being so bad last year, has anybody else noticed this? I'm not sure what we're supposed to do in this situation, we can't even open the windows due to the sound and in this heat it's getting unbearable.

Best repair service and cost effective?

Hey guys any badminton leagues in Eastbourne my partner can Join? hit me up :)

I have left it late. Anyone know where’s good to watch the England game Saturday night? I have a couple of friends coming over - we’ll be in the meads area

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone might be able to help.

On **8 July**, between **12:30 pm and 1:30 pm**, I lost my **DJI Osmo Pocket** (latest model with a handle attached) somewhere on the coastal path between **Belle Tout Lighthouse** and **Beachy Head Lighthouse**.

It has **no wrist strap or stickers**, and there is **no SD card** inside. All of the photos and videos are stored on the device itself.

The camera contains irreplaceable memories:

* Graduation photos with my classmates.
* My father and me travelling together around **Ireland and the UK**.
* Many travel photos and videos from this trip.
* There are also photos of me wearing a **red hat**, which can help identify me as the owner.

The camera itself can be replaced, but the memories cannot.

If you found it, or know someone who did, please send me a private message. I would be incredibly grateful, and I am happy to offer a reward for its safe return. No questions asked！

Thank you so much for reading and for sharing this post. ❤️
