I TOOK INITIATIVE I"M THE NEW JEFF.
aka - I went ahead and put up a FB group, Chicago Style Tabletop.
I only invited a few people, because I don't like most of you don't have many of you on facebook - so guys, start inviting each other and crap.
IT IS CURRENTLY A CLOSED GROUP.
This is to insure that before we go public, we have the icon, a good "mission statement", and maybe even a set night at the Dojo or something that we can actively advertise. Otherwise we may as well just stay on this forum.
We'll use the standard two-party system to vote in officers (read; bribe me to give you internet power).
Once we get a passable page (let's get this done inside a week, yeah?) we can open it up and start bringing in some fresh meat.

Nice, thanks Joel. This is fantastic.
Anyone want to take some stabs at a mission statement?

Along those lines, any of the little corners we can fill in... the description, the group pic (Thanks Jeff!), etc... pretty much the whole layout is up for grabs. And by that, I mean we need to get together and pick things that convey our group and what it means.
I'll putz around before work, in between taking sweet sweet pics of my army (get ready, internet!), filling out a few things. These will largely be placeholders to show that we *can* put things in certain places, and should have something worked out soon.
The end.

Maybe I'm just annoying, but frankly I like to keep my gaming hobbies off of Facebook - so if the group is going to be a public one, I'll likely remove myself. Since it's likely to be used more as a recruiting tool, that shouldn't be a huge deal, but if it remains closed I'll gladly still participate. We can always invite people to the group as we grow

If it is privacy you're worried about, I'm pretty sure you can personalize settings so no one but those in the group can see your activity, regardless of it being public or not. And I think if we do go public, I absolutely recommend that we have to confirm requests rather than having open admission. Too many bots out there.
Many of my friends are not straight up wargamers, but do love board games. Enough to be a part of a group. I'd like to have a relatively open idea with CST eventually.

More than just a "we all play the same game" announcement, fb groups are a great way to easily set up games and events, since people are so often plugged in already. I've gotten like thirty notifications already from this thing, which is cray.
The group will eventually go public, in order to facilitate activities. If anyone is uncomfortable with this for any reason then obviously you have the option of ducking out, no worries. When I have a minute I'll see if there's a calendar attachment to be used for the weekly dojo nights and any big events we hold, like that eldar vs imperium apoc.

I use FB groups all the time to manage my pathfinder games, there is indeed an event calender.
