I loved Grouper. Met a lot of cool people and had a lot of fun. My guess is it was an operational nightmare to scale. There was a lot of manual effort on Grouper's end in selecting the venues, matching the groups, making the reservation, and paying for the first round of drinks (the model was you pay $20 per head to Grouper but it covers your first round).
