You have probably all heard by now that we have successfully moved. I won’t repeat myself here and will simply refer you to the construction reports and the successful crowdfunding campaign. Instead, let’s get straight to the news from yesterday’s meeting:

• Members can now book the Sci-Fi Bridge for CHF 20 for short sessions (such as Session 0 or board games).
• Furthermore, all rooms can be booked by members on weekdays until 5:00 p.m. (i.e., during off-peak hours) for CHF 20.
• There will be a successor to our Arcanor community campaign! Project Blackrock is being organized by Daniel, Elia, and Nino and is expected to be announced in December. We are looking forward to having another free DnD campaign soon.
• The third quarter financial results also look good. Due to the unexpectedly higher rent, more expenses for rent deposits, etc., things will be a little tighter at the end of the year despite your overwhelming donations. However, all signs are good for next year, with steadily growing membership numbers and room rentals.
• Small stuff: If you see a large table (at least 110 cm wide) that would fit in the library, please let us know! We also ask you to label your compartment with GM material in the room.

Your generosity and willingness to help KuL with small, large and enormous amounts of money, hard work, energy and solidarity (once again) to open a new chapter leaves me speechless. And so we can conclude an extremely successful crowdfunding campaign.

Within a few weeks, we found new premises, developed decoration concepts and received an INCREDIBLE CHF 5000 (FIVE THOUSAND!!!) to realise these concepts. And of course we started immediately!

Since this Monday, we have been painting, flooring, decorating and listening to Patricia&Mario’s wedding playlist at Weissensteinstrasse 16.

All that remains for me to do is to take a bow, refer to our donor page and say

!MERCI VIU MAU!

And what happens anyway, of course?

Once a year we move. This time to Weissensteinstrassse 16, as decided at last Sunday’s general meeting. We will now have three (!) playable rooms there, which will of course be decorated in a fantastic or scifiesque or library style. And all this starting the end of October!

Below is an overview of all the changes; you can find more details in the minutes:

Finances

So that we can afford the new (more expensive) rooms, the following changes were decided:

• Price for KuL membership increased to 100 from 2026. (If this poses a financial problem, please do not hesitate to get in touch)
• New room rental fee for KuLists after relocation 50.-
• New room rental fee for non-KuLists after relocation 70.-

However, we are also dependent on additional support so that we can furnish the rooms in the way we envision. A thousand thanks to all those who have already donated for the new facilities! If you would also like to help make KuL’s new premises possible:

Renovation and moving

The move to Weissensteinstrasse 16 is scheduled for Saturday, October 18. Any helping hands are very welcome! But there is also plenty to do before then: painting, DIY, laying flooring, and much more. To help us coordinate everything, please fill out the following Doodle so we know when we have helpers available.

We need most helpers at the beginning and on the 18th. Please let us know if you can help outside of these dates or at specific times. The times given are approximate. We would also be happy to have your help an hour later!

Code of Conduct

To better represent KuL’s stance on shared play, the Höck has adopted a Code of Conduct. Both GMs and players who use KuL’s rooms can rely on this code.
Thank you for drafting it! If you have any questions or comments, please let us know!

Of course, there will also be a number of events in the coming months:
