Sweet! Joined.

It's saying the invitation is not valid though.

Also, wouldn't it also be a good idea if we have a car meet in a random car game?

Sorry, left an expiry on.

That one won't expire.

I'm OK with a game, if you're shouting us all the cost, or know of a free one.

I believe the kids these days are into Forza Horizon 4 which I would have to purchase aswell

[Zecke]

I don't have an xbox, just a pc and ps4 so forza is ehhhh... NFS Heat? It has crossplay capabilities and I have some sweet rides

[TheCaptain]

Forza Horizon 4 is on pc aswell (most Microsoft Store games are crossplatform these days). I can remember playing some Forza game a few years ago and that it was free, but can't remember what it was called.

Be pretty cool if we can build a few MCM cars in that game and have a meet with those.

You can get NFS heat for 3.99 a month and then cancel at the end of the first month from what I'm able to understand, so that would be a cheap option

[Zecke]

Or we could do nfs payback because that game has mcm stickers in it. Remember 3fiddy?

Right, so what's the format going to be then on discord? I've never been to an online meet before.

Really need to decide this now so I can tell Marv.

What's the craic with randoms joining? Are they automatically muted from the voice chat until unmuted by an admin? Are we keeping this small or is this invite going out on the faceballs etc?

I'm out for the game, I don't have a PC capable lmao.

It's currently setup fairly open.
Slow Mode is ON, however it's only at 5 seconds, so you cant 'paste spam' the room, 5 seconds is a rather short delay.

The voice channel is open, however I have 2 security groups configured; "MightyCarAdmins" and "M&M's" which both have Priority Voice; meaning they dip everyone else, so long as they're using PushToTalk. Anything up to about 50 people tends to be quite manageable in a single chat room. I can make as many voice rooms as you'd like; so we can segment it off to random junk chat vs trivia vs 'officials' or whatever.

Are we keeping this small or is this invite going out on the faceballs etc?

I'd say, middle ground? Like a real meet? I'm sure we all have friends who are MCMers who aren't forumers. 'Bring them along'?
If we go all-out facebook, we WILL be swamped.

Smartphone? iPad?
That's the benefit of Discord, I've been in a few Trivia nights with my PC-hardware-hacking group; I usually just have a bluetooth headset on, paired to my phone while I drive

[Zecke]

I put together some trivia questions, should be fun xD

But I think I have to re-shoot my crap car because while reviewing the footage it became clear filming on a tablet is not a good decision.

[Zecke]

Okay, 11 days left. I have my MCC piece shot and edited, MCM trivia game set up, can I get some feedback on your guys' status? I'll also put the time in the first post

Need to know the format and how many people will come/join. It's a big ask for so few attendees, even although we're all special especially since it's summer and people suddenly become busy if it's nice.

You might want to put feelers out on faceballs as unofficial MCM forum online meet or something.

I've not heard back from Marv but I know he's been busy with stuff at the weekend.

Format?
For the mcc vid just whatever your phone records. Just walk a lap around your car/s and tell us a bit about it. No need for fancy music or editing, but if you want to, I won't stop you (because I did on mine and its 5 minutes lol)
For the meet I guess I'll be hosting the live feed cueing in the segments.

Feelers on Fb is problematic b/c I don't have a Fb account.
Do you have a word back from Moog and/or Marty?

Ahh right cool, got ya. I've never done an online meet that's all.

umm not yet, usually a few days before I get a reply from Marty. I really don't want to email his personal inbox for anything forum related.

I'll send Marv another PM and see what hes thinking.

Me neither, but I did some practice streaming on the discord server and everything worked, but I can't check the audio on the back end.

Look I'd PM or email them myself but the chances of the messages getting read are slim to none.
