BWW-Kent will be dropping trivia in 2019, and has stopped replacing non-functioning boxes. For these reasons, the team has officially voted to move to The Red Fox Grille in Cuyahoga Falls starting on January 8, 2019.
Were these "non-functioning boxes" Tablets or Playmakers?

The Red Fox is a lot closer (a ten-minute drive for me), and the management there actively sought us out and got the system installed there in anticipation of our move.
Let us imagine that the newest and most naive Buzztime site didn't, taking ANON out of school, "Get the system installed in anticipation...". but rather took notice of the math.
Let's say you have 20 players dropping in every Tuesday, four times a month. and their average tab is a humble $10. That's $800. The margin on food and beverages these days must hold at or be below 35%. So The Fellowship alone provides half the money on the $1000/mo Buzztime rental which the Red Fox Grille is presumably paying.
But that's only half.
It's incumbent upon the Fellowship that it encourage players to show up in the afternoon, or late at night, or to play Six, or Countdown, or Spotlight.

What's missing from this list is the congeniality of the casual game. Sometimes it's just about inclusion.
