Looking for ways to improve this if possible. It is in the downtown area that is currently going through a transition from run down buildings to new apartments and businesses. Bury the Hatchet is always pretty packed and after throwing people usually hang around to play games and drink (BYOB). A lot of groups hangout outside as well. I was going to resubmit with a better photo and change the description/supplemental info up a but put if you think that this would be a waste let me know. I've seen escape rooms pass and thought this would be an even better fit as during non instructional hours it hosts local recreational and competitive leagues that local residents are a part of. They have Halloween events and other fun activities as well.

    IMO, this is a 5* submission. You only had bad luck with some reviewers.. It happens, don't give up and resubmit again!

    -It meets the "great place to be social" criteria being a nice place to hangout with family or friends

    -Can also meet the "exploration" criteria being an "Unusual or unique local shops"

    -Can also meet the "exercice" since axe throwing is kind of technical and physical


    Your new description and supplemental info are correct. If you want, you can add a few words to link the submission to the eligibility criterias (great place to be social, great place for exploration, etc.)

    However, there is no need to talk about COVID-19 guidelines. We, as reviewers, are not here to judge if a place is safe or not regarding COVID since guidelines may vary at every city, state or country.

    I love this nomination, and agree it meets new criteria very well, and sounds like a very cool place to visit. I think you wrote the submission very well, so it was bad luck it didn't pass. Good luck when you resubmit!
