I am afraid this is going to be a major fiasco. The idea is good but the
  meetup site is very badly implemented. It is very confusing. It is
very hard to find how to choose a different city from those that are
suggested.

When you finally realize that the closest city is too far away from
where you live, you have an hard time to discover how to suggest a
different city. When you think you have found to how to suggest a new
city and do it, it seems that you're suggestion is being ignored.

Is there really anybody behind this site? It seems that it was something
that somebody did but is not really maintaining it.

Another point is the choice of the day of the week is not very fortunate
either because most people that work can't attend during weekdays. Even
Friday night would have been a better idea.

Anyway, it shows that for the small numbers of users that subscribed to
the various sites are just a reflex of how badly organized the
initiative is. It is a pity. Maybe it should be better to organize
something independent of the Meetup site which is only forcing
inconvenient constraints of place and day of the week.
