Board game website

[Lizzy]

Someone just posted a link to a board game website on our Facebook page and it reminded me my friend is making a rival (better) site and it'd be great if he could get some feedback.

The site lists all the board game shops, cafes, clubs and events worldwide. Or will do once he's finished!

It's www.meeple.city

What would you all like in such a website? What would make it better?

Sounds like a good idea. Apart from the basics (opening hours, address, cover charge, etc.) it would be really nice if I could subscribe to an RSS feed (or emails) telling me about events within an x mile radius. Perhaps this could also alert me to sales. I'm not sure how easy it would be to obtain / curate all this data for so many places though.

I do like the idea of being able to leave reviews and rate places though, in honesty, there are so few shops and cafes that I'd probably give them a try if I were in the city regardless of the review.
