Plans, not profilesSwipe through what's on near you, or start your own at a real public place. People come for the plan.
Break the ice before you arriveSay you're in and the group chat is open. For an event Rally found, it opens once three people are in. When you get there, you confirm who actually came.
Friends firstRally is for finding your crew, not dating. People you click with stay in your circle.
