Dating for Nerds love and chance party December 15, 2012

Get lucky during a fate-themed singles mixer. Find your charm over rounds of board games and trivia with other unattached smarties from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 15 at Sugar Café (679 Sutter St.).

Play the numbers during a Chance Encounters icebreaker. How it works: Attendees receive a list of 12 prompts. Guys and gals couple up and roll dice to determine the topic of conversation. Each of them takes a turn responding until time is up, then they part ways and meet new pairs.

Fortune favors the bold with drink specials such as the White Russian Roulette (vodka, coffee liqueur, cream and a randomly chosen "mystery" liqueur), the Magic 8 Ball Brew and the Drawing Straw-berries Martini.

And, hit the jackpot with giveaways like Schrodinger's cat decision makers and prank misfortune cookies.
