Event Reports｜International Matching Party

Nice night in Shinjuku

2011/10/7

12 men 18 women

6 couples.

Not a great balance tonight in Shinjuku, but a good event nontheless. Half of our men made matches and left with a date.

There were some lovely ladies on show tonight also, who all unsurprisingly made matches with some lucky guys.

Our Shinjuku party in September was not a good one, but this event definitely made up for it.

Don't forget our special party coming up in Roppongi guys; it should be a blast!

Perfect balance in Ginza

2011/9/30

14 men 14 women

6 couples

A few women cancelled last night in Ginza, meaning we ended up with a perfect balance.

In fact, a few extra guys had signed up, and so for the first 20 minutes of the party, we had one extra man, but one of the women turned up... better late than never.

We made 6 couples, which is of course just under half. A few of our regulars made couples which I was pleased to see. It really is true that everyone makes a couple sooner or later.

We're in Shinjuku and Osaka next week, and as usual are beginning to fill up with women already.

Loads of ladies in Ginza

2011/9/23

19 men, 29 women

7 couples

Had a couple of women not cancelled on the evening of the event, we would have had more than 30 women attending. It's probably a good thing that they did cancel, as with 29 women to talk to, the first half of the party was very quick indeed, with only a minute for each conversation!

All the men were very good, and moved quickly, although I often had to tap people on the shoulder!

We managed to stick roughly to schedule, although had nowhere near enough time to do impression cards.

Anyway, thanks to those of you who came, hope it wasn't too hectic! We made a good number of couples though, and most guys certainly seemed to enjoy themselves.

We're in Ginza again next week (30th of September), so please sign yourselves up soon guys!

Big night in Osaka

2011/9/23

14 men 26 women

6 couples

A lot of women attended tonight in Osaka. Due to it being a national holiday, we had lots of women signing up on the day of the party. This put the balance out a little bit, but hey, I guess it doesn't bother you guys too much.

Almost half of the guys made couple, and there was a good atmosphere at the party, despite the less than excellent balance.

We're next in Osaka on the 7th of October, with Osaka parties from October taking place on the first and third Friday of each month.

Friday night in Ginza

2011/9/16

14 men 20 women

6 couples.

Not a particularly great balance tonight, but a successful party nonetheless.

It was a good night, and we made just under a 50% couple ratio.

Next we're likely to have a very big party due to it being a national holiday, so sign up early guys!

Big night in Ginza

2011/9/9

19 men 24 women

7 couples

A big party in Ginza tonight with over 40 guests.

The first part of the party was therefore pretty quick (each conversation was only about 1.5 minutes!), but all of the guys did a splendid job of moving round. We finished slightly, but not too late, as it's impossible to finish at 11 with so many people.

Not an especially great couple ratio (generally the case with large parties), but a good event overall, with a great atmosphere at the party (I changed the music which also helped). Most people certainly seemed to have a good time.

We're in Ginza again next week, and already have quite a few women signed up, so get yourselves signed up guys!

See ya!

Friday night in Osaka

2011/9/9

10 men 17 women

5 couples

Less men than usual in Osaka tonight. You guys may think that's a good thing, but really, for the atmosphere of the party, it's better to have a closer balance. a few more guys doesn't really have much effect on your party, but will make the women a bit happier.

It turned out to be a good night though, as the balance wasn't too bad. Half of the men made couples, which is also not at all bad.

Our next event in Osaka is on the 23rd. It will probably be a big event, as it's 'Autumnal Equinox Day' (秋分の日), so get yourselves signed up early.

I'll soon be putting up the schedule from October until the end of the year.

Friday night in Shinjuku

2011/9/2

11 men 8 women

3 couples.

Not the greatest night in Shinjuku if I'm honest. Thanks to the rain, or rather the dislike Japanese women seem to have for rain, we had several cancellations on the evening of the party.

We therefore ended up with more men than women, which is something we always try to avoid. That hurt the atmosphere somewhat. It seems that everyone's spirits had been dampened by the weather perhaps.

Anyway, we're already looking at a big party in Ginza next week, which will no doubt be back to form. Many women signed up already

Small event in Nagoya

2011/9/2

4 men 5 women

2 couples

It was quite a cozy event in Nagoya, with　less than 10 guests in total. We had more women wanting to sign up (despite the inclement weather), but just couldn't get any more guys. As it happened, a few of the women who were signed up cancelled on the evening, so we ended up with a good balance.

Nagoya guys, please spread the word about these events, as I'm sure there's enough foreign guys in Nagoya to make our events there as successful as our Tokyo and Osaka events.

Great night in Ginza

2011/8/26

12 men 17 women

5 couples.

A really fun event in Ginza tonight. Could have done with a couple more guys, but it did nothing to hurt the atmosphere.

Everyone seemed to be in good spirits (including me), and the event was generally great as a result.

A group of guests who became couples went out drinking together afterwards and apparently had a lot of fun. Wish I'd been invited!

Hope you can make it to another of these fun events soon!

Not bad for free eh?
