Critical Mass

This post contains information about the type of pleasure events that our social network could support.

Parties
Definitions

• A gathering of people who have been invited by a host for the purposes of socialising, conversation, or recreational activities.

Examples:

• Birthday party: celebrating the birthday of a specific person.
• Graduation party:  celebrating somebody’s graduation from university (or college).
• Dinner party: a gathering where everybody gets together at one person’s house and that person traditionally cooks for them.

Travel

• If it’s not a local party then multiple travel options may need to be coordinated such as train and taxi if the location isn’t close to a station.
• If it is local taxis or walking or busses could be coordinated in groups.

Accommodation

• Party in the same place – no accommodation needed
• Party in different city where you can return that day- no accommodation needed
• Party far away where it would be difficult to return the same day – accommodation needed
