Best nights in SP and Rio

[davet]

I know, I know, this info is all over the site. Yes, ALL OVER, so I wanted to gather it in one place. Some of this hasn't had recent updates.

Please update, fill in, or correct, but this is my understanding of "best days/nights" for each top location

SAO PAULO

Lagoa - Reports are that Wednesday, when there used to be "more stars and gods than in the heavens," is now incredible again. I assume Friday and Saturday are still good.

555 - Sunday?

Python - ???

 

RIO 

117 - Tuesday, Friday, Saturday ...

212 - Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday

Boate Casa Grande (Bangu) - ???

Showboys - ???

TapaNaCara - ???

Python has closed.

what? so soon... why it is so difficult to open a new sauna in SP

[brall3]

Yes, how sad that such a large city can't manage to have more than one good active sauna with program guys.  The old Fragata re-opened and closed within a year, just like Python.  Just think, ten or more years ago São Paulo had 5 to 7 very active saunas with garotos.  Such is life.

Like nobody tuned into the vicissitudes of ventures competing with the ‘establishment’ could see that coming. Another case of the type of hubris underpinning the assumption that one can do it better while foolishly sinking enormous development costs into a business gamble.

(Wipe that grin off your face related to your barely disguised subtle sarcasm of a year ago, Rodolfo.)

5 to 7? I've been going to SP for 20 years and can only think of Lagoa, Fragata and some place way out in the Eastern suburbs.

How many saunas like Pointe are left in Rio ?

There is no Showboys. It is Show Bar Madureira. IMHO of the now four venues sprinkled across this approximately 15 km stretch of the SuperVia line, one in Bangu, one in Reangelo, two in Madureira, it is the least likely to actually offer trade as we typically conceive of it. 
Photo would not download here but as one can see it worked when I took a run at appending it to the post quote.

So what are the one in Reangelo and the two in Madureira? And what are their best nights?

Never really understand this notion. YMMV

Going back to your original question.
Yes, this is consistent with my info and experience.
Wish I could credit the unknown person who made this grid a while back, but I still find it useful.

If I weren’t to concede that it’s far more nuanced then slow is the operative term across the board, that is, I accept that I am slow. And when is slow the antithesis of good? I thought it was rapid and that the antithesis of good is not good. More spreadsheet sense for spreadings legs por favor.

Tuesday night is the slowest for private space acquisition. What makes extended waiting for your fun and trade deprived of consecutive program earnings a best scenario? It’s best for those that have their symbolic $$ orgasm prior to the suite as a result of the $10 discount. It’s only good for trade if they make contacts for off-site play pay. This isn’t our first rodeo, inn’t?

Best for me is attendance without established trolls. Otherwise, no notable day of week distinctions. YMMV

[Riobard]

I will add, though, that 117 has currently ceased their previous unique promotional discounts for Wednesday. Shifting sands regarding the mélange of fees for entrance, room, and payments by cash or Pix overall wrt their 6 open days. Gone along with social media are the corresponding banner infos within the venue’s inhouse paper and e-posts. That said, again, the day of week has been moot in terms of my visits going on 12 years now.

That spreadsheet is crystal clear. Lately, you are fond of using your gibberish to spread misinformation here and in CoM, with your other nickname.
