Game day & the scheduling meeting

Chat traffic — and where it laughed hardest

The bars are traffic: how busy all four chats were, five minutes at a time. The amber pegs are different — they mark where chat laughed hardest, outside what the recaps already cover. Each opens the VOD whose chat was laughing, landing just before the moment so you catch the setup.

1. 0:25:00 He stands up early for the mentor award, then hears a different name called Ludwig's chat
2. 0:50:00 Ludwig asks Leslie if she ever had an engagement party; chat winces Fuslie's chat
3. 1:10:00 Secret text mid game-pitch: "he's excluding us" — chat spams DRAMA Squeex's chat
4. 1:35:00 Leslie casually mentions coughing up blood this morning; chat is alarmed Fuslie's chat
5. 2:00:00 Friends learn they're not invited to Streamer Games; chat spams DRAMA Fuslie's chat
6. 2:15:00 Ludwig starts saying Squeaks' number on stream and chat begs for the rest Squeex's chat
