We had the same problem for the Australian Hangouts, VF Down Under. I'd been creating the events myself the last couple of months and was sad we weren't mentioned. I tweeted Felicia and mentioned the problem. She said she'll try to make sure there's a complete list in the future so hopefully that means it's taken care of.

Thanks, Mel. I'm sorry you had the same issue, but it sounds like Felicia will be on top of it. Hooray!
Yay for Felicia and her awesomeness!
We had the same problem with our group in Orange County, Ca. I just love that Felicia, as busy as she is, can still manage be so on top of things at the same time!
Thanks, everyone - I took down my initial comment. Sounds like everything will be addressed in the future. Thanks again to Felicia and the ladies for all their dedication and for taking the time out of their busy lives to share this group with all of us!

I've got out June Shameless in St. Louie event set up here, so we're good to go!! Thanks so much, Felicia!!!
Sadly VF Down Under got missed again. We really need a place we can post to that means we'll be mentioned. I'm guessing we got missed this time because our Hangout was last week so we weren't on the events page anymore. :(
Shameless in St. Louie got missed again, too. We met on June 14 & had an event created thru Goodreads. I know some folks who had June events did get mentioned, so I agree - we just need one place for Felicia to go to so she doesn't have all these crazy lists to worry about! She's a jet-setting mover & shaker! :D This needs to be fun & not so much work.Perhaps setting up a monthly poll or Goodreads thread so people can add the names of their groups & event dates all in one place, regardless of if it was earlier in the month? I.e. There could be a poll or thread set up saying - "Are you having a July or August meet up?" and people can add their names/dates as responses. Then in August, post one that says "Are you having an August or Septrmber meet up?" so it will catch any August ones that hadn't been posted yet when the previous August shout outs were mentioned in July.
I think there's just some weird sort of post/event timing that just isn't syncing up, because wherever Shaneless in St. Louie posts, whether in 'Request events' or actually posts an event ourselves, we get missed, so there must be something about the timing of when we post our events - maybe just too early in the month? But we always post as soon as we know when it will be, so I'm not sure how to change that. Hopefully having one poll or thread that everyone can get to (separate from requesting or creating an event) would make it easier on Felicia. We as meet-ups/hang-outs would all need to post in 2 places (one for the actual event/event creation and the main thread for Felicia to read from), but she would only have to look in one, rather than 2 or 3. Does that make sense?
That certainly makes sense to me. I hope we can find a solution that works for Felicia, I don't want to make her feel bad at all, I just know that the call outs is one of the ways we have new people find us.
Agreed! This should be whatever makes things easiest for Felicia! This group should be fun & not work!!! :D

I think goodreads is a bit clunky for what we need in this area. So sorry again!
That sounds great! I agree, the Goodreads format isn't quite what we need, but I'm so glad it brought you lovely, funny, talented ladies into our lives & reading habits! Thanks again, Felicia - you totally rock! It makes sense to tie it to the specific books/hangout thread.
Great idea, thanks Felicia! I really appreciate you helping us out with this. :)I've started a thread for this month, hope that works for you.
