I'd like some help or guidance with promoting "film night"

I can't seem to edit old original postings, which means each week I need to create a new thread which seems wasteful.

I'm also struggling with making the judgement call of how often I should "bump" the weekly posting I do do up the rankings. 

It's been suggested that the low number of attendees I've been achieving is because I am not managing the "promotional" aspect very well, which given how the rest of my life has gone, is quite likely.

I do have ONE attendee who has watched every film, and enjoyed them to the extent that he reports waking up last Sunday and immediately thinking "Goody, it's flim night today" which is exactly the result I was hoping for, so I won't be quitting any time soon, I guess...

This week it's scheduled to be "Idiocracy", and next week, most likely "Fight club".

  • Now you are getting the hang of it old chap !  Pretend that you don't know how to do something so people jump to your aid.....and then BAM - You hit them with "Idiocracy" this week, "Fight club" next week.   You are like a bona fide INFLUENCER now.......the next thing we know, you'll be starting your own range of Sperg Cosmetics !!!

  • I won't do bloody cosmetics! I know makeup can work well, for many people, but from my perspective it's usually a massive waste of time and money for the poor woman, and one which needs day long maintenance..

    Anyway, if I grow bona fide influencing powers, I want to use those powers to form a 'sperg army and subjugate the normies!

    And to be honest I was not pretending.

    After 7 or 8 films it became clear I was not doing it right. (Or I'd misjudged the utility of doing it) 

    At that point one does ask for help & guidance.
