hey BBB
when is the deadline for sign ups I’m working on my first bot but I don’t want to miss sign ups if I wait till I’m finished.
Also are under 18s allowed at the event just wondering cause it’s at a pub.

Signups will close when we have a large enough number - typically we will give at least a days warning of when this will be :slight_smile:
Under 18s perfectly fine accompanied!

4

What time of day do the BBB Ant Social events typically end?

Hey, should be around 6. I’d allow for 6.30 ending just in case as it does vary a little bit, have updated the description.
