(I recall this being mentioned as okay to do during either a Discord chat, or an in-game one, so excuse the odd post. Also, yes, Ina, I am posting it. Roar. I offered, and it had been my suggestion originally to do, not Mariko's.)
A few of the members (Wist, Ina, Star, Mariko, Magnum, and myself) were all discussing the prospect of having a game night that we would be able to play games outside of Final Fantasy XIV together. I believe the term "team-building" was dropped by someone? We thought it would be fun and give those of us who'd like to "bond" outside of XIV a chance to get to know one another, as well as to give more variety to those who may often find time that they would like to participate, but are unable to and/or do not wish to log on to XIV.
Thus far, we're aiming for free games that would be accessible to most - if not all - members of the Free Company. We've so far come up with two (Town of Salem and Cards Against Humanity, which are both available free through websites). We want to aim for free games that are hopefully accessible to many due to the fact that it will allow for people who don't want to purchase games or don't have means to still be able to participate if they desire.
We're currently aiming for Mondays when we start this, due to the fact that it thus far seem Mondays are the best available days; however, this would be up for change or even up for the option of doing whenever it is planned for members. We could have another Discord group set up if required for these type of events, so we could keep the main Notorious Monsters one separate from the out-of-game one.
If anyone has any questions, comments, or suggestions, feel free to reply. Also, if you're interested, feel free to say.

I'll get back on it, then. We can all figure out what day is good for the majority of us who'd like to participate, and do it that way. Since most of us have Discord to use (and I'm trying to fix my mic, Ina, don't worry), we could use that as a method to talk while we're doing it, like we normally do.
Cards Against Humanity is a good one to do, and Town of Salem is another free one. If I could figure out how to do it, I'd love to try and get a game of Werewolf or Mafia going because they fall into the same kind of category as ToS for people who may not be able to/want to play the game online. It would allow us to focus more on the Discord chat, too, and just focus solely on voice, which would make it easier to be sure everyone who wants to be involved could.
Let's get this idea back going.

Let's try to aim for that if it's good for people. What does everyone want to try this weekend – CAH or ToS, or see if I can pull together a way to do another game like that? I'll probably be doing more primal farms in a little while. Might run Rav EX to get a refresher for myself before I do, or if people want, we can potentially do one of the RR EX Primals and pony/loot farm it.
