Damn, for some reason I still had it in my head that Rocket League was happening on Tuesdays! :fp:

What's the plan for next week then? I know there has been suggestion of less "gamey" stuff like Jackbox in the past and that might be fun if we can get a good group for it.

I set up a Jackbox night with friends last Friday via Twitch and Discord, and it worked surprisingly well. With the low latency settings in Twitch, my friends' streams were only 2-3 seconds behind the game itself.

From pack 3 onwards, most games have stream-specific options, like extended timers and the ability for the host to screen any rude answers before they're shown on-screen.

One potential issue- though maybe it's just the circles I run in- is that Jackbox shares a lot of the same problems that Cards Against Humanity has in terms of tone, in that the bar is set on the floor, and then everyone strives to dig underneath it.

I tried Jackbox the other week, I think 1 person showed up, but it is a great game to play.

The plan is see what the thread wants next week and that's what we'll play.

I definitely think that Jackbox would work well, you wouldn't need to worry about sinking up Twitch streams because surely each player just joins the hosts game using their mobile and we can chat over Discord? I don't think seeing each other is a pre-requisite for having fun with the game.

It's definitely a race to the bottom situation tonally though, which isn't a problem as long as everyone is on board with it! :slol:

It works good, but delay can vary for people. I guess the best option in be indiscord chat (even if you DO NOT WANT TO SPEAK) as the host of the game can say 10 seconds left when there's 20 on screen for those watching... If that makes sense?

Yeah that's how I've done it recently with friends - the time limits are usually pretty generous anyway!

Time limits are much better in I think 3 onwards in 1 and 2 I think there's no extended timer like the later games. I have JBP 1 - 6 and Drawful 2 so I'm up for them all the time :lol:
