I set up a public game night for a non profit organization. The event space has a bar on one side and Pizza and snacks are available. All ages are welcome as the bar side is segregated from where the gaming area is. We posted it in some FB local groups and I found some local subreddits and discord servers. I even made an Instagram account but it flagged my flyer as spam. It's a smallish town with about 14k people but near a much bigger college town by about 30 minutes. I'm at a loss as what to do since I'm going to give it a go this week too. We discussed having a vintage video game competition such as an old arcade game. Am I missing something or are game nights just not that popular?

I agree this looks a bit vague to what this is. It needs some more text on the side or bottom to describe what this even actually is, maybe even photography from places happened before. To me flyers make sense, if its already widely known and this is just a reminder to when and where to come, not why or what it is. And the big Bring your Own! sounds like its a must, because the "or" is very small compared to it that one may miss the connection.

Ideally there is a website for people to visit, maybe even with a QR code to scan.
