Since we can't send mail in-game unless you're on the friend's list, and you can't add the friend's list unless you're both online . . .Â
But it sounds like the best bet is the Grindstone outside of just going on manhunts to find most of you. Kyr was there last week, but with like 25 competitors, it's easy to get lost in the shuffle. Especially with two obnoxious Hyur shouting all sorts of strange things at you during your fight. /straightface.
In the case of Grindstone, you probably should come an hour early (yes an hour). Normally, there are quite a few people there already and the mechanics of organization aren't taking place yet. Once it starts, getting in RP with anyone until about the 3rd round might be tricky because tons of people are running around trying to make sure things go smoothly with 30+ people signing up. The people who run it don't want it to go to 3-4 am, but before the event offically starts you can generally talk to competitors and even staff a bit easier.
If you get knocked out quickly, about 30% of the fighters stick around to watch at least one more round which gives you some conversation chance. If you are really bold at least a half dozen to a dozen folks will still be there after the final roll. (But that can be pretty late for some people).
