can I merely join using the code that is telegramed?

Yeah, you just copy-paste in. That's what I did with that test one.

Ah, fuck.

However, I have a cunning plan...

What are you using?

Android - but on a dated-for-even-its-time 6-year-old device.

To show you just how old it is, it comes with the since-dead Google+.

I do - however, I can't use it in this instance because:

  • can't take it upstairs due to parent edicts,
  • have no proper speaking area downstairs, and
  • have no earphones to avoid having to use the speaker.

The odds are definitely in my favour tonight.

Celritannia and Sundiata both expressed an interest in joining. Do we know if they pulled out, or have just been missed?

Remember what I said about the 'cunning plan' earlier? Turns out I've found a workaround to the problem, so...

...yes, I'll still be able to take part. ;)

I think there's only two people who were missed off the original list. I've tged them both.
If I don't get a response from Sundiata I'll send him the tg anyway, after all there's nothing lost if he just gets a tg he doesn't want, better than being ignored for something he still wants to do.

Yeah but if it's our actual names, you won't know immediately which nation we are.

Btw I'm definitely doing it inside. I was originally gonna be outdoors but my neighbor is riding on one of those John deers and Jesus christ have mercy are the fumes noxious. I'm like a good 200 feet away from him and I still smell that shit.

And then one day you look in the mirror and you realize that you ain't you anymore. You're just another monster, and thanks to your actions, someone else will eventually become as warped and twisted as you. Never forget that the best of us are just the best of a bad lot.
