You can select 2 options, one being are you getting vaccinated. Yes, I realize the irony of the second part, but this poll IS anonymous.
background:
I run a monthly social game among friends. Last week, we were on track for our first game since COVID. Couldn’t get enough players.
I sent an invite this week and one of the players, who accepted last week, now asks if players will be vaccinated. I responded, “I haven’t asked anyone about vaccinations”, hoping that was clear and would end it, but knowing it wouldn’t. He responded, suggesting I ask because he won’t play unless everyone is vaccinated. To me, this is very short sighted.
Not only does he play in larger games, he deals part time as well. There’s no way he’s getting guarantees from all this people. So, either he’s giving up the poker life he had, or he’ll do a 180 soon. All are his free choices to make of course.
I haven’t yet responded, but believe I’ll address the entire group, briefly explaining that some folks have asked, and then state: “We have regulars and alternates play at our game, as well as attend tournaments. It would be impossible to guarantee player vaccinations without proof. I do not intend to ask for proof of vaccination, political papers, or other personal information and thus cannot guarantee player vaccinations.”
As an aside, I’m confident that COVID vaccines will not determine the fate of my game.
Curious with my poll, if PCF addressing this at their games?
