Can we schedule a chatroom party?

Asked by Here2_4 (7152points) February 26th, 2016

It came up in The Jelly Below Me. We all know the chatroom is mostly for cobwebs these days.
Would it be visited if we set up a certain time each week to be there?
We could try one first, then come back to this thread to set up something else. If someone knows of an event, birthday and the like, and wants to post the date and a time to see how many can make it, etc. maybe more jellies would fall in at a time, even if just to say howdy, or watch whatever others are saying.
Thoughts?

Will there be pancakes? If you want me there, you must feed me.

With extra butter.

Coloma's avatar

Nah…count me out, too fast paced and your chat ends up scrolling down the line before anyone can ever respond and vice versa.

janbb's avatar

I’m not a chat room person either; I’ve never found it satisfying.

SecondHandStoke's avatar

I’m all in.

FORT KICKASS.

Coloma's avatar

@janbb Birds of a feather I guess. haha

SecondHandStoke's avatar

@Hawaii_Jake

You will be fed to the other participants, as is tradition.

With extra butter.

dxs's avatar

Let’s do it!
Make sure it’s some time past @Coloma‘s and @janbb‘s bedtime.

Hawaii_Jake's avatar

@SecondHandStoke Turtle Soup? I’m feeling the need to explore other lagoons.

Coloma's avatar

@dxs LOL…yeah, well, us tough old birds need our beauty rest, nest lights out by 10 for this chickie. haha

janbb's avatar

And dem icebergs get awfully cold at night so I have to curl up early too.

longgone's avatar

Sure, I’ll drop in!

Here2_4's avatar

So, there are at least four I know of, if we do it late enough for our Mafioso to be there.
Any suggestions for date/time?

stanleybmanly's avatar

Why do the chat rooms always grind down to nothing to talk about?

AshLeigh's avatar

There was a lot of cannibalism the last time I was there. Naturally, I’m in.

SQUEEKY2's avatar

Yeah if I see it busy I will stop by,at least to say hi.

Strauss's avatar

Yeah, let me know.

Mimishu1995's avatar

Am I too late?

jca's avatar

I’m not into chatrooms but I’ll try to stop by.

My guess is it will be hard to find a time that is good for the majority, since everyone here is from all over the planet.

Here2_4's avatar

So, somebody choose a time, let’s see what we can set.

Mimishu1995's avatar

How about 8 p.m New York time? It worked well for some of us in the past.

Stinley's avatar

I’ll say hello. I’d like the notice of who’s in there to go. That way if you don’t know someone is there before you go in, you are more likely to pop in. And you won’t look like a sad loser being in there by yourself

Mimishu1995's avatar

I don’t know. Maybe somewhere between Friday and Sunday?

jca's avatar

Friday’s over, sister. Either Saturday or Sunday. I’m not sure what I’m doing later (Saturday) at 8 but don’t schedule it around me.

Mimishu1995's avatar

I’m fine on Saturday and Sunday, which are actually my Sunday and Monday. Although I I’m more comfortable with my Monday as I often have a Sunday to spend with my grandma. I’ve done my part. I’ll let others choose.

dxs's avatar

I have work. Is 11 pm New York time too late?

jca's avatar

11 is fine for me. I should be home. Hopefully awake. I’ve no experience with chatrooms so am not sure what people do. Do you enter and start talking about whatever?

dxs's avatar

Pretty much. And we can have some pretty good conversations.

Here2_4's avatar

So Sunday, so @Mimishu1995 can have Monday with Grangmama? 11PM NY ?
Who’s in for that?

dxs's avatar

Sunday, 11pm New York time. Going once, going twice…

Coloma's avatar

11pm N.Y. time, well..that 8 p.m. California time, maybe I’ll take a gander tonight, just to see who’s in the room. haha

SQUEEKY2's avatar

That makes it 2am out west here I won’t be able to make it.

janbb's avatar

@Squeeky the west is three hours earlier.

SQUEEKY2's avatar

@janbb I know and edited it but it still put my first answer up, sorry.I thought I toally deleted it.

Coloma's avatar

@SQUEEKY2 Invents his own time zone. haha

Mimishu1995's avatar

11 m.p New York time… that will be 11 p.m here! Damn, that is nearly my lunch time!

SecondHandStoke's avatar

What’s for lunch? @Mimishu1995

Is it me?

jca's avatar

See you guys at 11 – hopefully.

Mimishu1995's avatar

@SecondHandStoke I may come to the chatroom and grab you for lunch :D

@jca 11 p.m is a bit late, but it’s Sunday and my family will most likely eat lunch later than usual. So maybe I will be able to come.

Strauss's avatar

I’m there, but I can’t say anything. Might be my phone.

Mimishu1995's avatar

Change to your computer.

Strauss's avatar

I will, but it’ll be a little while.

stanleybmanly's avatar

I can’t even find it on this phone.

Soubresaut's avatar

@stanleybmanly—maybe try switching to “desktop” version of site? not sure—chat shows up on my phone when I switch to desktop version, but I was worried that the universe might implode or something if I was in the chatroom twice…

Mimishu1995's avatar

First day of the chat. Seemed to be going well.

Soubresaut's avatar

@Mimishu1995 and @all so is it a weekly thing now? :)

Mimishu1995's avatar

@Soubresaut that’s the original idea. But I’d like anyone to drop by anytime they see fit. We can be flexible can’t we?

Strauss's avatar

Jellies are nothing if not flexible.

Mimishu1995's avatar

Hey! Anyone fancy going to chat tonight?

dxs's avatar

Shouldn’t we stick to Sunday nights? I’ll be there then, 11pm New York time.

Mimishu1995's avatar

@dxs Oh OK, I almost forgot this is Saturday in the US :p
