    I’m not on any WhatsApp groups so this is my chance :D

    Oh god, don't Strawbs. Whatsap groups always descend into inappropriate images/videos being sent which automatically save to your phone and lead to awkward conversations when your husband/mum see nakey pics as you're scanning through the gallery to show them a picture.

    I mean, I imagine that's the case. Not that I'm speaking from personal experience...

    Why are teams being randed when they are forming naturally by preferred comms method?

    sK is right. Let the teams draft themselves. :D

    IF I was going to look at that kind of content I'd use an incognito tab or save it to an innocuous file folder on my phone rather than save it in my general gallery. Weirdo. ;)

    Just to be clear folks, everyone will be randed to a team when signups close.

    Regarding the watsapps groups there may or may not be a visual round!

    Viber has that option.

    You can, but only as a general rule not specific groups (i dont think) and so if you want it to auto save family/friend pics and ur too lazy to auto delete then your phone ends up choc-full of rubbish.

    If the table quiz contained questions on whatsap settings and how to store your dodgy media I'd get on far better than general knowledge.

    Yes. You can turn off autosave for conversations or even individuals. It's very handy because I'm in groups with some absolute plonkers and some of the ****e that they send I don't want on my phone.

    Nope. Turns out I'd be just as bad at my imaginary table quiz on whatsap settings. Sigh.

    I'm already in circa 3 (4?) groups from previous games, it was something I was considering suggesting but I was worried that:
    Too much chat might move off boards
    It might look to others on the outside as clique-ish

    But I have a tendency to overthink things :pac:

    ah screw them. We're a nice bunch if people wan't to join come on in...

    I was actually thinking of a short game on discord, but a bit more involved than popcorn. over the course of a day or two only. Could also be done on watsapp.

    Wonder if popcorn settings can be changed to lengthen the days so it'd last a few days instead of a few minutes.
