Rules of Engagement:
In order for the event to be successful and fun we have a few simple asks:
Be On Time
Even better, join early to ensure your device is working properly before the trivia night starts. You may not be admitted if you join later than five minutes in.
Stay For The Duration
If you aren’t able to stay for the whole event, let us know at least one day prior to the event and we can remove you and add you to the next one. Break-out rooms work best when everyone stays the duration.
Mute & Unmute
Mute your line when not talking and unmute it when talking. Virtual meetings have been around for a while but these faux pas are still common.
Don’t Join From Your Car
Please join the event from somewhere with good network connections. And please don’t drive and play trivia!
Bring Some Jokes and Have Fun!
