Your website says the company was founded in 2009.

You only have two reviews.

There are few photos, and none seem to show "speed-dating".

 ???
When I shoot, I recover the spent casing and reload the brass.

The company was founded in 2009. Is there a specific question about that?

We do not take photos or videos during events and we ask guests not to do so also. 
The most recent reviews are available on the Russian version of the site, because most of our guests are Russian. www.city-date.ru

Only three examples of media coverage - not much for a few years in business, and probably paid advertising slots.

OK, but photos still do not represent the events.

The TWO reviews in Russian are the same TWO reviews in English!
When I shoot, I recover the spent casing and reload the brass.

As I said, the latest reviews are here:

http://www.city-date.ru/reviews.html

List of media who covered us (mostly in Russian and we did not pay them) is on the button of the web site - logos of the media.

Why don't you visit us and we can take your picture and post your review on our web site if you wish?

CM, are you planning soon visit Moscow or just bored today?
Hypocrisy is the state of pretending to have beliefs, opinions, virtues, ideals, thoughts, feelings, qualities, or standards that one does not actually have. Hypocrisy involves the deception of others and is thus a kind of lie.

Anastasia, I think it sounds very interesting ... can you try to describe the sort of men and women who show up?  Do you have a dress code for the men?

Do you give a discount two for the price 2 for 1. (SLUMBA, VINNY, LARRY ? ? ? )

Just joking I doubt another member could tolerate me for more than 5 minutes.

Seriously you present a very interesting concept. It is a refreshing change of flavour!

Yes, I met one Yank in Karkhov who had his own speed dating version, he had dates lined up on the hour every hour for days on end, more like a mass interview process to me, than building any sort of relationship with anyone. Last I saw of him he was walking down Sums'ka St dressed like he had just come off Newport beach after a day of R&R, T shirt, board shorts and flip flops  (:)  and he wondered why people were rubbernecking him  :'(

I think/hope I can get a Visa for Russia!  :chuckle:

To think I received criticism for taking 30 minutes with an initial meeting after exchanging messages! :-X

Sure. Dress code is business casual, most of people come directly from office. But jeans are OK too. The place where we conduct our events is pretty casual.

People are mostly office crowd, we have many people from banking sector, marketing, IT. Age-wise - ladies from 20 till 38, men from 20 to ~60.

Does this help at all? Thank you!

Sure.
We usually send out coupons to people who already participated in our events. But in this forum we offer 500 rubles entrance fee to anyone (see above in the post). If you use this discount, it beats any other discount you might get with multiple participants.
