Forte Animal Rescue Volunteer Orientation
Sat, Oct 10, 7:00 PMAttention all dog lovers! If youโre interested in volunteering with an animal rescue organization, please consider Forte Animal Rescue, a 100% volunteer group. We need volunteers to help with our weekly adoption event, dog walking and dog transportation. We also need fosters for our dogs, so they donโt have to stay in a kennel until theyโre adopted. Weโre also looking for an experienced Grant Writer and a Videographer who can video and post our dogs on social media. And, of course, we're always looking for fresh fundraising ideas, too. Our volunteers are asked to attend an orientation on the west side of LA before they can volunteer with us. Orientations are held the second Saturday of each month from 12 to 4pm. If you think youโd be interested in helping us, please send an email to volunteer@FARescue.org for the application form and more details. You will also need a photocopy of your driver's license or other government issued identification. http://farescue.org

Sep 26-Ultimate Werewolf Game Night
Sun, Sep 27, 12:30 AMPlease note the date has been changed from Sep 12 to Sep 26, apologies for the change. Join the Los Angeles Ultimate Werewolf Game Meetup Group for a fun-filled evening of social deduction games! Ultimate Werewolf is an interactive game (part card game/part board game-similar to Mafia if youโve ever played that) of deduction for two teams: the village team and the wolf team. Players on the village team don't know who the wolves are, and the wolves are trying to remain undiscovered while they slowly eliminate players on the village team one at a time. Each player receives a card with their role at the beginning. If it sounds confusing, everything will be walked through at the beginning. Whether you're a seasoned werewolf player or completely new to the game, this event is perfect for making new friends and testing your wits against others in a thrilling game of deception. Bring your best strategies and alliances as you navigate through the hidden identities and attempt to uncover the werewolves among us. Not only will you have the chance to play Werewolf, but you'll also have the opportunity to socialize with fellow game enthusiasts in a welcoming and friendly environment. So come out, sharpen your skills, and enjoy a night of engaging gameplay and laughter with the Los Angeles Werewolf Meetup Group. I have reserved both private spaces upstairs on the second floor. It can easily fit the whole group, quiet and chill spaces where we don't have to share with any other group. They are located up the stairs to your right from the main entrance. Odyssey Games has snacks/NA drinks included in the cost of room rentals, you can also bring whatever food/drinks you want. The snacks and drinks are located at the bottom of the staircase, feel free to grab whatever you want free of charge at any time. A recommended (but optional) $5 donation will be requested from now on to help me cover the cost of the space and meetup fees. Either through cash or: Venmo: @BrandonF51 Zelle: [actorbrandonfox@icloud.com](http://actorbrandonfox@icloud.com/) *Feel free to bring other board/card games as well, down to try different games if we have time after werewolf*

Caging Claude: Hacker's Guide To Vibecoding Safely
Sat, Oct 3, 2:00 AMA hands-on lab in what AI coding assistants get wrong, and testing whether your instincts about them are as good as you think. \*\*\*\*\*\* THIS IS A PAID CLASS, PLEASE BUY A TICKET HERE:\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* [https://www.universe.com/events/caging-claude-hackers-guide-to-vibecoding-safely-tickets-VPBF4K](https://www.universe.com/events/caging-claude-hackers-guide-to-vibecoding-safely-tickets-VPBF4K) **What is the problem?** AI code agents rapidly expand the capability and speed of developers, but are still building real vulnerabilities into projects that are easy to prevent. How do we close the gap and vibecode at speed without deploying massively vulnerable code? **What will you learn?** The question this lab poses is this: do you know where AI coding is quietly wrong, and can you catch it before it bites you? You'll work through real vulnerability classes (hallucinated dependencies, injection, leaked secrets, broken access control) mapped to real CVE/CWEs, each with a live exercise where you catch the failure yourself. Next, you'll vibecode live something you'd normally be nervous to touch: an auth-and-secrets system. Before every step, you'll predict where the assistant will need your oversight. At the end, you'll learn in a personal assessment how right those predictions actually were, where you might trust too much, and where you were more paranoid than you needed to be. If you want a much clearer picture of when you can trust your AI, and how to improve the security of the projects you make, this class is for you. Bring a laptop, we'll include the AI agent to code with! \*\*\*\*\*\* THIS IS A PAID CLASS, PLEASE BUY A TICKET HERE:\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* [https://www.universe.com/events/caging-claude-hackers-guide-to-vibecoding-safely-tickets-VPBF4K](https://www.universe.com/events/caging-claude-hackers-guide-to-vibecoding-safely-tickets-VPBF4K)

๐ฒ Strategy Games Only: Board Game Social at Moncha Cafe
Sun, Oct 11, 9:00 PM**๐ฒ Strategy Games Only: Board Game Social at Moncha Cafe** **๐ Date:** Sunday, October 11, 2026 **โฐ Time:** 2:00 PMโ5:30 PM **๐ Location:** Moncha Cafe โ Rosemead **๐ Address:** 8547 Valley Blvd, Suite B, Rosemead, CA 91770 **๐ต Event Cover Fee:** FREE **โ๏ธ Game Format:** Strategy & Euro-Style Board Games **โณ Game Length:** Games should have an expected playtime of less than 2ยฝ hours **๐ฑ Skill Level:** All experience levels welcome ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด **๐ซ SOCIAL DEDUCTION GAMES BANNED AT THIS EVENT ๐ซ** ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด Come join us for a special **Strategy Games Only Board Game Social** at Moncha Cafe in Rosemead! For this event only, many of the game restrictions used at some of our previous board game events are being lifted. So dust off **Catan**, get your **Wingspan** engine running, start negotiating resources with people who will absolutely remember your betrayal three turns later, and prepare for a Sunday afternoon of strategic decision-making. Expect careful planning, questionable alliances, resource shortages, dramatic sighs, strategic silence, loud celebrations, conflicting strategies, and at least one person staring at the board as though the meaning of life is hidden underneath a wooden cube. This event is for games that need a little more room to breathe. *** ================= *** **โ๏ธ What Games Are Welcome?** This event is focused on **strategy games, Euro games, economic games, engine-building games, area-control games, civilization games, resource-management games, route-building games, and other strategy-oriented tabletop games.** Games that fit the spirit of the event include: * ๐๏ธ **Catan** * ๐ฆ **Wingspan** * ๐ **Ticket to Ride** * ๐ **Terraforming Mars** * ๐๏ธ **7 Wonders** * ๐ณ **Everdell** * ๐ญ **Power Grid** * ๐บ๏ธ **Concordia** * ๐ฐ **The Castles of Burgundy** * ๐พ **Agricola** * ๐ **Caverna** * ๐งฑ **Azul** * ๐ **Splendor** * ๐ **Small World** * ๐งญ **Carcassonne** * ๐ฆ **Root**, provided the table reasonably expects to finish within the time limit * ๐ฒ Other strategy games that can reasonably be completed within the event's playtime requirements Bring something you have been wanting to get to the table. Just make sure the group can realistically finish it. And yes, **Catan negotiations are allowed**. Whether anyone believes your promise that you โdefinitely won't build thereโ is between you and your conscience. *** ================= *** **โณ The 2ยฝ-Hour Rule** Games should have a **reasonable expected playtime of less than 2ยฝ hours for a complete game**. This does not mean somebody will appear with a stopwatch at exactly two hours and twenty-nine minutes. The goal is simply to avoid starting games that are ordinarily expected to consume most or all of the afternoon. Games that routinely take **2ยฝ hours or longer** should be saved for another event. Examples of games that generally would not be appropriate for this session because of their expected length include: * ๐ **Twilight Imperium** * ๐ **Diplomacy** * โ๏ธ **Axis & Allies** * ๐ **War of the Ring** * ๐ **Eclipse: Second Dawn for the Galaxy** when a full session is expected to exceed the limit * โ๏ธ **Game of Thrones: The Board Game** when a full session is expected to exceed the limit * ๐๏ธ Heavy campaign, civilization, war, or legacy games expected to run beyond 2ยฝ hours ๐ข If your game normally requires a dinner break, a change of clothes, and a discussion about where everybody is sleeping afterward, it is probably too long for this meetup. ๐ *** ================= *** **๐ซ Social Deduction Games Are Not Allowed** Social deduction is the **one game category specifically prohibited at this event**. This meetup is focused on strategy-oriented tabletop gaming rather than games primarily centered around hidden identities, deception, accusation, elimination, or figuring out which person at the table is secretly working against everyone else. Examples of social deduction games that are **not permitted** include, but are not limited to: * ๐ซ **Blood on the Clocktower** * ๐ซ **Werewolf** * ๐ซ **Ultimate Werewolf** * ๐ซ **One Night Ultimate Werewolf** * ๐ซ **Mafia** * ๐ซ **The Resistance** * ๐ซ **The Resistance: Avalon** * ๐ซ **Secret Hitler** * ๐ซ **Deception: Murder in Hong Kong** * ๐ซ **Spyfall** * ๐ซ **The Chameleon** * ๐ซ **Feed the Kraken** * ๐ซ **Two Rooms and a Boom** * ๐ซ **One Night Revolution** * ๐ซ **Insider** * ๐ซ **Crossfire** * ๐ซ **Salem 1692** * ๐ซ **Good Cop Bad Cop** * ๐ซ Other games whose primary mechanism is hidden-role or social-deduction gameplay This list is illustrative rather than exhaustive. If the central question of the game is basically **โWhich one of you is lying to me?โ**, please save it for another meetup. We already expect enough drama from somebody refusing to trade a single piece of wheat in Catan. *** ================= *** **๐ Previous Game Restrictions Are Relaxed** For this strategy-focused event only, previous restrictions that may have applied to other board game events are lifted except for the following limitations: **1\. Social deduction games are not permitted\.** **2\. Games expected to take 2ยฝ hours or longer are not appropriate for this session\.** Otherwise, bring out the strategy games. Engine builders? **Yes.** Economic games? **Yes.** Area control? **Yes.** Resource management? **Absolutely.** Games involving fourteen different types of wooden cubes and a rulebook that initially makes everyone question their educational background? **We'll consider that part of the experience.** *** ================= *** **๐ Important Notes** * ๐ Event begins at **2:00 PM**. * ๐ Event concludes at **5:30 PM**. * ๐ต **Event Cover Fee: FREE.** * โ๏ธ This meetup is specifically focused on strategy games. * โณ Games should have an expected playtime of **less than 2ยฝ hours**. * ๐ซ Social deduction games are not permitted. * ๐ฒ Previous game-category restrictions are otherwise relaxed for this event only. * ๐ If you bring a game, please be prepared to explain or teach it. * ๐ช Game selection will depend on attendance, player count, interest, and available tables. * โ Please respect Moncha Cafe, its employees, customers, property, and house rules. * ๐ Winning is optional. Explaining afterward why you *would* have won with one more turn is apparently mandatory. *** ================= *** **๐ค Community Code of Conduct & Good Sportsmanship** Everyone is expected to be **cordial, respectful, patient, and welcoming** toward other attendees, venue employees, customers, and the host. Competitive strategy is encouraged. Competitive hostility is not. Please be patient when someone is learning a game. Allow newer players reasonable time to understand the rules, ask questions, and make decisions. Do not ridicule or belittle another attendee for making a mistake, misunderstanding a rule, or choosing a different strategy. Every experienced board gamer was once the person who confidently made a terrible move and discovered why approximately thirty seconds later. Disagreements about rules should be handled calmly and respectfully. Check the rulebook, discuss the interpretation, resolve it, and move on. **Aggressive, hostile, threatening, harassing, bullying, intimidating, discriminatory, or deliberately disruptive behavior is prohibited.** Please respect personal boundaries. If another attendee asks you to stop a behavior, give them space, or leave them alone, respect that request. Treat the host, attendees, Moncha Cafe employees, and other customers courteously. Serious or repeated misconduct may result in an attendee being asked to leave and may result in removal or banning from future community events. Strategy, negotiation, temporary alliances, ruthless resource management, and dramatic disappointment are all perfectly acceptable **inside the game**. Please leave the actual interpersonal warfare on the cardboard. *** ================= *** **๐ธ Photos, Videos & Media Notice** **Photos and videos may be taken during this event.** By attending and participating in the event, you acknowledge that you may appear in photographs, video recordings, group photographs, background footage, or other event-related media. To the extent permitted by law, attendees authorize the event organizer and Andy's Board Game Community to photograph, film, record, reproduce, edit, publish, display, distribute, and otherwise use photographs, video, audio, or other recordings containing their image, likeness, appearance, or voice for **lawful community, archival, informational, promotional, advertising, social-media, website, Meetup, and event-related purposes**. This permission includes use in current and future event announcements, recaps, promotional materials, community pages, social-media posts, websites, and similar media, whether published electronically or in print. **No compensation, royalty, payment, residual, or other fee will be owed to an attendee for an authorized use of event photographs or recordings.** Photographs or recordings may be edited, cropped, resized, captioned, combined with other lawful content, or otherwise adapted for these purposes. If you have a particular privacy concern regarding photography or recording, please speak with the organizer **before participating or before photographs are taken** so that reasonable accommodations can be discussed where practicable. Please understand that this is a social event in a public-facing commercial venue, and the organizer cannot guarantee that other customers or attendees will not independently take photographs or recordings. *** ================= *** **โ ๏ธ Participation Disclaimer & Release of Liability** Participation in this event is **voluntary**. By choosing to attend, each participant accepts the ordinary risks associated with attending a social gathering in a public venue, including travel to and from the event, movement around the venue, interaction with other attendees and members of the public, food or beverage consumption, handling board games and equipment, and other ordinary risks associated with participation. Each attendee is responsible for exercising reasonable care for their own health, safety, belongings, transportation, food and beverage choices, and personal conduct. Attendees are responsible for determining whether participation is appropriate for them and for communicating directly with the venue regarding any dietary, allergy, accessibility, or venue-specific concerns. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, by voluntarily participating in the event, attendees agree to **release and hold harmless the event organizer, Andy's Board Game Community, volunteers, and participating community members from claims arising from the ordinary and inherent risks of voluntary participation in the event**, except to the extent such claims cannot lawfully be waived. Nothing in this disclaimer is intended to waive, release, or limit any right or liability that **cannot legally be waived or limited**. The organizer does not guarantee the conduct of individual attendees, the security of personal property, the availability of any particular game or table, or uninterrupted access to the venue. Please keep your personal belongings with you. Participation and attendance are at each attendee's own discretion. By remaining at and participating in the event after reviewing these event terms, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the event rules, conduct expectations, media notice, and participation disclaimer. *** ================= *** **๐ฒ The Strategy Session** Bring your Catan settlements, your Wingspan birds, your economic empires, your carefully optimized engines, and whatever elaborate strategy you have been quietly developing since the last board game meetup. Expect **silent concentration, loud celebrations, conflicting strategies, dramatic resource negotiations, temporary alliances, suspiciously long turns, and the occasional realization that somebody has been building toward victory for forty-five minutes and nobody noticed.** Come play. Come strategize. Come socialize. **Just remember: no social deduction, no six-hour civilization simulations, and no blaming the host when somebody blocks your longest road. ๐ฒโ๏ธ๐**

RSVP or registration does not guarantee admission or participation. Attendance is subject to organizer approval.** First-time attendees are generally not part of the complimentary loyalty admission. However, a first-time attendee may participate **only if specifically approved by the organizer**, in which case the event fee is **$35 per person**. **Beginners are absolutely welcome, and teaching will be provided.** Whether you already know how to play, have only played a few times, or need someone to explain why discarding that tile was a terrible life decision, you are welcome to learn and play. The event is best suited for **beginner to intermediate players**, with a focus on learning, socializing, playing casually, and having a fun Sunday afternoon together. Please arrive by **2:00 PM** so we can organize tables and get games started smoothly. The event will run until **5:30 PM**. *** ================================ **๐ต Event Fee & Loyalty Admission** **Eligible returning loyalty members attend this event for FREE.**\* **\*Complimentary admission is limited to eligible returning members of Andyโs Mahjong Community and Board Game Community. Prior attendance by itself does not automatically qualify someone for complimentary admission.** If a first-time attendee is specifically approved by the organizer to participate, the event fee is **$35 per person**. The $35 first-time attendee fee is strictly an **event participation fee**. It is not a wager, gambling payment, buy-in, prize contribution, play pool contribution, or payment connected to Mahjong scores, wins, losses, or gameplay results. There is no play fee, betting fee, gambling fee, or money pool associated with Mahjong gameplay. *** ================================ **๐ง Venue Purchase Requirement** Because we are meeting at Wushiland Boba, **every attendee is required to purchase at least one item directly from the venueโs menu**. Food and beverages are purchased separately and paid directly to Wushiland Boba. The venue purchase requirement is separate from any event fee. The host does not collect or receive payment for food or beverages purchased from the venue. In other words: **Mahjong may be free for eligible loyalty members. Boba has unfortunately declined our request to become a charitable institution.** Please support the venue, be considerate of its employees and customers, and help us remain good guests. *** ================================ **๐ Important Notes** * ๐ Please arrive by 2:00 PM so we can organize tables and start smoothly. * ๐ Beginners are welcome, and teaching will be provided. * ๐ฑ Skill level is beginner to intermediate. * โญ Complimentary admission is reserved for eligible returning loyalty members. * ๐ต Approved first-time attendees are subject to a $35 event participation fee. * ๐ง Every attendee must purchase at least one menu item directly from Wushiland Boba. * ๐ซ Gambling, betting, wagering, cash play, and money-based gameplay are strictly prohibited. * ๐ช Space may be limited depending on table availability. * โ RSVP or registration does not guarantee admission. * ๐ค Participation is subject to organizer approval. * ๐ Bringing a good attitude is encouraged. Bringing a winning hand is beyond managementโs control. *** ================================ **๐ค Community Code of Conduct & Good Sportsmanship** Everyone is expected to be **cordial, respectful, patient, and welcoming** toward other attendees, venue employees, customers, and the host. Please help maintain a friendly, comfortable, and low-drama environment throughout the afternoon. Good sportsmanship is expected, especially because some players may still be learning or building confidence. Please be patient with newer players, avoid rude or dismissive comments, and give people reasonable time to think, ask questions, and understand the game. Disagreements about rules, scoring, or gameplay should be handled calmly and respectfully. **Be kind to the host and other attendees.** Questions, disagreements, and feedback are welcome when communicated respectfully. Hostility is not. Aggressive, hostile, threatening, harassing, bullying, intimidating, discriminatory, or deliberately disruptive behavior toward the host or any other participant is not acceptable. Please respect personal boundaries. If someone asks you to stop a behavior, give them space, or leave them alone, respect that request. Please respect the venue as well. Keep the tables reasonably tidy, manage noise appropriately, and follow reasonable requests from Wushiland staff. And yes, **play fairly**. No cheating, deliberate disruption of games, or launching a constitutional crisis because someone discarded the tile you wanted. Attendees whose behavior significantly interferes with the safety, comfort, or enjoyment of others may be asked to leave and may be **banned from future community events**. We are here to argue over Mahjong tiles, not over each other. *** ================================ **๐ซ No Gambling / No Money Involved in Gameplay** **This is a strictly non-gambling Mahjong event.** There will be **no gambling, no betting, no wagering, no cash play, no money pool, no prize pool, no buy-in, no side bets, and no money connected to Mahjong gameplay**. Mahjong will be played strictly for **fun, learning, and social enjoyment**. Any event participation fee is completely separate from Mahjong scores, wins, losses, hands, points, or gameplay results. No money will be collected for a play pool, gambling pool, prize pool, or wagering system. **Gambling is strictly prohibited.** Any participant found gambling, organizing gambling, collecting money for gambling, attempting to create a gambling pool, or involving other attendees in gambling **will be banned from the event and from future community events**. The only thing you should be risking here is whether that tile you just discarded comes back to haunt you. *** ======== **๐ Cancellation Policy** If you can no longer attend, please cancel your RSVP **at least 24 hours before the event start time**. Since space may be limited depending on table availability, canceling in advance gives another eligible participant the opportunity to attend. *** ======== Come enjoy boba, play Hong Kong Style Mahjong, reconnect with familiar faces, and spend a fun Sunday afternoon with the community. **Play for fun. Be kind. Respect the venue. No gambling. And remember: blaming the tiles is always easier than blaming your strategy. ๐๐ง๐**

Forte Animal Rescue Volunteer Orientation
Sat, Oct 10, 7:00 PMAttention all dog lovers! If youโre interested in volunteering with an animal rescue organization, please consider Forte Animal Rescue, a 100% volunteer group. We need volunteers to help with our weekly adoption event, dog walking and dog transportation. We also need fosters for our dogs, so they donโt have to stay in a kennel until theyโre adopted. Weโre also looking for an experienced Grant Writer and a Videographer who can video and post our dogs on social media. And, of course, we're always looking for fresh fundraising ideas, too. Our volunteers are asked to attend an orientation on the west side of LA before they can volunteer with us. Orientations are held the second Saturday of each month from 12 to 4pm. If you think youโd be interested in helping us, please send an email to volunteer@FARescue.org for the application form and more details. You will also need a photocopy of your driver's license or other government issued identification. http://farescue.org
