Thread for organizing gaming while we’re all shut in!

I’m willing to put Jackbox up on my Twitch stream (all y’all need is access to the stream and a device with a web browser to play on, including phones!). Tomorrow or Saturday night for those interested!

    We’re looking at a 7 EST start time for those interested 😁

  • colacola part legend, part devil... all man Balls deep Icrontian

    Putting this up again for tomorrow night, we'll do 8 EST so we can catch the coasties!

    I'm in. That was a blast. Last time.

    Question: would there be interest, say, were someone to pick up a Zoom pro account for events like this?

  • LincLinc Owner Detroit Icrontian

    I'll grab a Zoom account for Cola to use.

    If anyone wants to chip in a couple bucks for the TF2 server ($23), Zoom account ($16), or a Minecraft server ($8 if we do it), you can PayPal accounts@short-media.com.

    I picked up a Zoom pro for a month, found a coupon. Getting the sharing could take some doing.
    https://us04web.zoom.us/j/7247841127 is the link right now. I'll leave it open whenever I'm on.

  • LincLinc Owner Detroit Icrontian

    There is a line between folks contributing ad hoc and registering accounts meant to be the de facto one for the community. As I have said many times over the years, please don't do the latter without discussing it with Brian or myself.

  • AlexDeGruvenAlexDeGruven Wut? Meechigan Icrontian

    I have other uses for it. When I'm available it's available for the group.

  • RyanMMRyanMM Ferndale, MI Icrontian

    What's the advantage of Zoom over Twitch?

  • BobbyDigiBobbyDigi ? R U #Hats ! TX Icrontian

    Zoom is more video conference where everyone can be on video chat (or just audio) and a presenter can easily share screen with everyone.
    Twitch is a one way stream and we use Discord to talk.
    The difference in this case would be the delay. If the stream even gets 3-4 seconds out of sync, it affects players.

    Twitch is about 10 sec, by default. It made a few games a lot more difficult, but nothing was really awful, considering.

  • RyanMMRyanMM Ferndale, MI Icrontian

    Ah got it! I wasn't aware of the twitch latency issue. I can see why you're looking at alternatives.

  • RyanFodderRyanFodder Detroit, MI Icrontian

    Zoom is also pretty amazingly straightforward.

  • RyanMMRyanMM Ferndale, MI Icrontian

    Is coordination happening here or elsewhere?
