Online Bi+ Ireland Meetup - Playing JackBox Games on Zoom

18/7/2020

0 Comments

 
Background textured almost like felt, the colours are pink, purple and blue. On the left hand side of the graphic is the words “Online Bi+ Ireland Meetup Playing Jackbox Games on Zoom Saturday 25th July 2020 8pm-10pm. Don’t forget to sign up.”  On the right hand side is the outline of a laptop, phone and headphones.
Online Bi+ Ireland Meetup - Playing JackBox Games on Zoom will take place on Saturday 25th July 2020 at 8pm. For privacy reasons we ask you to fill out this form if you wish to participate. On the day, we will send you an email containing the link and password to join the meetup, if you don’t receive it by midday please pm us.

We want to make Zoom meet ups a regular occurrence, so to start we are going to play a few games. 

And if games aren’t your thing, you are free to join just for the chats, or keep an eye here for future non gaming sessions

For the purpose of this event, we will be hosting over Zoom.
We will be using a paid version of Zoom so there is end-to-end encryption on the call. A link to the zoom meeting and its password will be sent on the day. You are not required to download Zoom onto any device as you can access the meeting through any web browser. Nor do you have to sign up to zoom.

We will be using Jackbox.tv. Each player must have individual access to Jackbox.tv. It does not require an app download or any sign-up. Simply this allows you to select your answers from your device.

If multiple people from the same household are participating, you could all, of course, join us on the one video call.. Additionally, each player must have access to a device so that they can input their answers using Jackbox.tv.

While it is possible to navigate both Zoom and Jackbox from the same device it is not ideal.

To join the zoom meetup please fill out https://forms.gle/hyiyikxDHkmxfNV67

Like always our meet-ups are open to all adults under the Bi+ Umbrella and their friends, partners, carers etc.

Important to Note
  • Starting at 8pm. Finishing at 10pm.
  • Like all Bi+ Ireland events, this event puts consent first and foremost, you can choose if you have your mic and camera on or not, at any point.
    • You can type comments as well/ instead of using your voice .
  • If you are running late, don’t worry pop into the call whenever you are free. Likewise, feel free to leave at any stage. Whether you are there for 5 minutes or the 2 hours, we will be happy to know you were there.
  • If possible please wear headphones with a mic. This helps improve audio and reduces the amount of feedback in the call..
  • You can have a public chat in the chat function, but no private messaging anyone
    • Please note, there will be Bi+ Ireland volunteers keeping an eye on the chat.
  • Please use "content notices" if you are about to talk about sensitive or potentially triggering topics. 
    • If you're talking about a situation that is sensitive for you it might be helpful if you clearly say if you're looking for sympathy or if you're looking for solutions - but you don't have to do that .
  • In the interest of consensual interactions we are implementing a "badge" policy, which we learnt from another group.
    Just rename yourself to include a the first letter of the colour badge you feel is appropriate.

    Eg: G -Alex, O - Aaron, R - Eliza,
    • Green (G) means I'd like to interact so please chat with me & I might not speak out myself.
    • Orange (O) means prior permission - I only want to interact with people whom I've given permission.
    • Red means - (R) I'm here, but not up for any kind of interaction
    • No colour means you'll manage things as they come .
    • You can change badges/ colour thing many times during a conversation but just remember it might take others a few seconds to notice.
    • Volunteers will have a V badge
  • For the best experience please have 2 devices on hand.  One device for the Zoom call. One device on Jackbox.tv to answer the questions. Neither Zoom or Jackbox requires signup or download.
    • Many handheld devices offer split screen view options. Another option is to jump between Zoom and Jackbox when you wish to.
  • This is a Bi+ Ireland event and as such our guidelines are in play. Remember to respect each other, act in good faith and know that no racism, sexism or lgbt-phobia will be tolerated.

Today is International Non Binary People's Day. A day to remember the issues still faced by non binary people around the world. Here in Ireland non binary people do not have gender recognition and face problems seeking gender affirming health care. In Bi+ Ireland we stand with our multiple non binary members and volunteers. We see you. We value you. We will fight with you. ​
Photo description  The left hand of the photo is the non binary+ flag. The right hand of the photo is the bi+ flag. The non binary+ flag is yellow, white, purple, and black horizontal stripes. The bi+ flag is pink, purple and blue horizontal stripes
