I'm Q'ed until the 19th. Hit me up.

rass · Post by **rass** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 6:32 pm

Sure, if I’m available I’m in

Ryan · Post by **Ryan** » Mon Dec 14, 2020 8:59 am

No momentum for now but thanks for volunteering. We'll try again after New Years.

Ryan · Post by **Ryan** » Fri Jan 08, 2021 2:22 pm

Bumping this to try again.

For some background, I'm working on a game show type thing and if I can try it out online a couple times and it works as intended, this will probably be our Swampcrash substitution for the year. Participation will be limited so you can guarantee a spot if you guinea pig this bitch with me.

Restating the ask:

Can I get 4 volunteers that can run through a tryout with me on Zoom some night?

I'll need those 4 people to pair up into 2 teams. At least one person from each team should be on their computer, and all 4 people should have their phones.

No dice. Sorry.

It's an online game, dummy.

(Looking for a fourth still)

This is still on, by the way. If you said you were in for tonight and didn't get a pm from me, post here

Johnny Carwash · Post by **Johnny Carwash** » Tue Jan 12, 2021 8:29 pm

Is there a phone app we need to install? Just Zoom? Would probably help if I could install in advance.

My understanding was log into Zoom on a computer and have a phone handy.

Ryan · Post by **Ryan** » Tue Jan 12, 2021 8:48 pm

Correct. The phone will be your buzzer for part of the game and there's no app to worry about

BSF21 · Post by **BSF21** » Tue Jan 12, 2021 9:03 pm

I'm here and "waiting for the meeting to start"

It's 9:15. I'll be there in a few.

rass · Post by **rass** » Tue Jan 12, 2021 10:39 pm

That was excellent, thanks. Don't be a dummy like me and use one device for everything.

The Sybian · Post by **The Sybian** » Tue Jan 12, 2021 10:46 pm

5 stars. This game is an absolute winner, will play again.

Next, recreate 8 out of 10 Cats!

BSF21 · Post by **BSF21** » Tue Jan 12, 2021 10:46 pm

Super fun. Sign me up again. Apologies to Syb for getting stuck with me and props for his orange knowledge.

That’s all over my YouTube recs. It’s good?

Ryan · Post by **Ryan** » Tue Jan 12, 2021 10:53 pm

Yeah that went fairly ok for all the moving parts I put in there. So....

Are there 11 more people here that want to play a quiz show season on Zoom? 7 games plus playoffs. About an hour each time. Will probably record and post them if that matters to you.

You’ll need a partner so pretend it’s gym class and start pointing at each other. When you’ve got a team (and a team name, claim your spot here)

A_B · Post by **A_B** » Tue Jan 12, 2021 11:01 pm

I’ll play for sure but couldn’t commit to tonight.

duff · Post by **duff** » Tue Jan 12, 2021 11:29 pm

It was great fun tonight. Very fun game. Thank you Ryan.

Yes. It's a comedy panel show based on survey results and statistics. There's also a crossover called 8 Out of Ten Cats Does Countdown where the cast is on Countdown (a math and crossword show that's the UK's Price is Right.)

Sounds awesome. I’m in if that’s ok.

I just watched the8 out of 10 Countdown show, didn't realize there was also a panel show. (I did know there is also a real Countdown gameshow, but I haven't watched it). We had a discussion about it several years ago. It's hosted by Jimmy Carr, who I love, and has some wacky returning characters. The gameshow is a thin thread to pull along the jokes and skits throughout the show. The contestants are mostly comedians. The Vanna White role is filled by a PhD in Mathematics who is like a sexier Rebecca Lowe, she is really funny and cool. If you watch British comedies, you will see familiar character actors who play the zany bit character in every show. It's a lot of fun, but not much of a gameshow.
