TMT40s Meet-up Status Update #4
Hi Titos and Titas,
Thanks to all those who confirmed and deposited their joining fees. Don't worry, your money is safe with me.
We have not received responses from some of the initial registrants, so we are reallocating their slots to those on our wait-list.
To our wait-listers:
We have sent you the offer messages via email, TG, or Reddit. You may now secure your slots by completing the payment using the QR code provided. Please deposit before August 22 and reply to my message with proof of deposit.
Paging (code name) Boom Bilyo - please DM me. I can't find you on TG or Reddit.
Other updates:
Program Flow - We have finalized the 3-hour program consisting of icebreakers, games, discussions, culminating activity, and socials.
Prizes - We are currently seeking sponsors for our prizes. Salamat u/hersoftglow !
Parking - There is a pay parking near the venue. Street parking is also available.
Dress code - There will be games (konting takbuhan) so wear something comfortable but still appropriate for the event.
KTV - the venue is equipped with state-of-the-art KTV equipment. Maganda yung room promise! 4 ang TV monitors and may mini stage for the program.
Food and drinks are part of the consumables. We will preorder food and drinks and serve them at different intervals para makapagparticipate ang lahat sa activity, at hindi muna malasing.

FAQs
Q: Pwede bang manood lang? Ayoko kasing makipagdate.
A: Again, this event is NOT really a dating event. It's supposed to be a meet-up lang but we thought of incorporating a dating portion. Most activities focus on interacting with fellow participants and sharing thoughts about specific topics. At the end of the day, baka kabisado niyo na profile ng at least half of the participants. Hindi namin kayo ifoforce-match. Those who are not willing to participate in the dating portion may opt not to join.
Q: Pano kung gusto ko talagang makameet ng someone special on the event? If this is not a dating event, hindi ko maacchieve yun.
A: Baka kayo pa mapagod sa kakaikot at kakausap sa mga participants dun. There are task-based activities that will allow you to approach people, ask questions, share thoughts about topics, and maybe exchange socials if consensual.
Q: Lahat po ba ng magjojoin ay single?
A: No. It's a mix of people who just want to meet new friends (40%), people who want to meet new friends and are open to meeting potential partners (56%), and 4% are intentional seekers. Hindi kami nanghingi ng ID so we cannot validate the age and relationship status of the joiners. You can take your sweet time in getting to know the person before, you know, giving in. Matanda na tayo. Gamitin ang utak, wag lang puso.
Q: Ilang Titos and Titas ang magjojoin?
A: Based on the initial registration, 60% Titas and 40% Titos. Pero syempre, it will all depend on who will confirm their slots first. By experience, yung mga Tito ang mahirap/matagal magconfirm. Kung kelan last minute, saka magdDM ng "Can I still join?". Yung mga Titas pa ang mas buo ang loob.
Q: Pwede bang humabol?
A: Pwede naman but take note that the venue has limited seating capacity. Only paid participants and staff will be allowed to enter the room.
Q: Can we stay for KTV?
A: We booked the room for 4 hours to allow us 3 hours of program and 1 extra hour for KTV. Naisip ko rin magpa-KTV game. Dami kong pakulong naiisip, kulang ang isang araw haha.
Q: Yung hosts po ba kasama sa dating portion? Baka ma-upstage kami.
A: I will be hosting together with u/samr518 . Wag pong mag-alala. Hindi po kami makikipagkompetensya sa participants. Hahaha. Maharot lang kami sa sub pero hanggang doon lang. Taken na po kami...for granted. Charot!
