So just an idea, not particularly novel but thought I'd mention it anyway

I'm watching with a mate in Switzerland and thought what would it look like with a larger crew and i could see reactions from other supporters. 

I am more than a little cautious about possible meltdowns considering how much we love each other generally, but am semi inclined to give it a go.

Any interest?

Are pants optional?

There were a lot of reports about the use of Zoom during isolation, especially around conversations being hacked and inappropriate material being displayed by the hackers.

We would just need to make sure that if anything like this happens, that before we report it we check that it's not @Bitter but optimistic just logging in.

Would the whole thing not just be people losing their [censored] at OMac?

The last thing I want to do is sit at home and watch other people watching football. Then again, I’m anti-social and don’t like people, so might just be me.

 

Ever see that footage of that time that bloke hijacked the public access channel in Chicago during that episode of Doctor Who (the science fiction show, not the Demonland troll)?  I always assumed a video conferencing call organized by Demonland would be similar to that but Max Headroom and his antics (or something similar to that description) would be displayed on all the Zoom user  screens.

Zoom, FB, whatsapp, vizeo, not fussed, send a PM if you are keen. So far participants are passionate optimists, whoever wants that particular type of tea.

Actually had my first Zoom just recently. 
Wonderful technology.  However I’ll have to work out how to filter out the background “noise” from The Manor’s dungeon

I beg you to put up a clean virtual background

I'd give it a go if we covered our faces with our avatars.

Well, in BBO's case there's no need, I suppose...

Anniversary, eh?

Sounds like something you would find at that now extinct venerable facility, The Daily Planet.

Fun for all the family if you have that Zoom meeting....

The first time a brothel was listed on the  stock exchange 

I did a pocket load on that investment. Wish you hadn’t reminded me chook !

nah because he's not playing

I think this would be a hoot. Watching the reactions of landers’ during a match and at the same time watching them post on the game day thread.
