It's probably one of our top 5 or top 10 most requested features. All I can say is coming soon. Any way we can let you know when we release it?
Excellent! Glad to hear. Yes, what's the best way to sign up? I already registered, I think, so sending a message thru the help function?

#56I looked at it a bit and am pretty stoked. Not sure how the reliability will work across different internet speeds and countries but will definitely try. Main desire: ability to name tables. In running workshops, sometimes each table will have a theme and then people who want to talk about that theme can join the table.

#59I think we've all seen various attempts to solve this issue over the years, but no one has quite figured out a decent UX to replicate the party experience. I'm glad to see you haven't gone the common & kind of intellectually-lazy route of moving an avatar around a virtual space.

> kind of intellectually-lazy I think that was rather uncalled for. My own use of avatars was a result of a lot of specific design decisions, around dissatisfaction with webcam video, i.e. the incongruity between the theoretical reason for why it's there ("to provide eye-contact!") and the reality that it fails at that task.
Good luck with your project.
