That's going to be a party!

I'm really impressed that no one has opened their gift yet.

Found a package on my doorstep this morning from someone I'm not familiar with so I assumed it was my SS gift.

That's going to be a party!

I'm really impressed that no one has opened their gift yet.

Well I kind of cheated on that front. I peeked in the box but luckily I saw that the inner contents were gift wrapped so I stopped there and will open it more properly closer to Christmas. 

I would say mark me down as 'Received'.

Yeah, i just need to know how to setup and join because ive never done this type of thing.

Things you’ll need:
A Gmail account
Webcam
Headphones (depending on your setup)
A lamp or other light source

In a pinch, you can use a smartphone with the google hangouts app. 

Anyone feel free to correct me if I’m wrong or forgot something.

I couldn't resist the temptation. I've opened mine already.

At least I lasted a couple days...

[kashell]

Don't leave us hanging! What'd you get?

[telly]

Should we make a different thread?

I've made one here: https://vgcollect.com/forum/index.php/topic,10522.new.html#new

Turf and I were trying to make sure that we could still use the same tools to air a podcast for this evening. We weren't successful. Anyone have any alternate ideas?

[Cartagia]

Were you having issues with the hangouts?  Or I guess a better question is, what issues are you having?

[kashell]

Yep.

[ignition365]

I kind of assume what yall do is do a video chat, and then someone streams their screen to youtube or what have you.

Discord lets you do video chat with up to 9 people, and looks like we have at most 9 people, so that could work.

[kashell]

Yeah, it's a video chat that gets sent to YouTube when someone pushes a "go live" button.

[koemo1]

At what time are we going live?
