We reached a peak of 37 members and 10-12 guests one Friday battle a summer or two ago. (i dunno the total was something like 42 halfway through the battle)
Personally I disliked the number of people - there are too many people that I need to worry about. Is this person having fun? Are they arguing down in the other channel? There were a LOT of new people, it was more stressful than it was fun to try to maintain the line like we do in training.
With experience it would be fine, but going from 15-20 to 42 for one night was something we were unprepared for. Maybe one day I will return to this beloved community to lead the 19te to its former glory of pre-NW
*Rumor* Joshly is getting a new ISP tomorrow, net coverage will improve and there is a possibility of limited return. Should the ISP be poor as the current - all attempts to obtain better internet for his living location will be exhausted.
