I do not enjoy chatting during the game. As I am on the otherside of the pond and the Janet Jackson mandatory 3-5 minute delay, stateside Bearsfans tend to celebrate before we see it. Or scream in agony as it often was with Nagy. Nothing worse then watching a solid drive and then someone posts "Oh know another interception!" Wish it were otherwise. Maybe us non continentals should make our own Discord, so no spoilers.
A new Era begins in the NFC North!

Sadly, it does not involve the Bears.... :frustrated:

It's the same way when those who are watching illegal streams deal with the 2-5 minute delays. I'm not sure what else to do besides create a separate room? We can experiment.

UPDATE: I've added a "no-spoilers-chat" room.

Discord is always open, but it should be lively with representation on draft days, yep.

That could be pretty fun. There will probably be a mix of people losing their shit and people being giddy. It would be nice if the first pick got us all pumped. But, then again, there seems to never be a consensus. At least the Cubs play an afternoon game that day so won't have to have that game on for my father in law.
