Also, how does having so many people on skype at the same time even work?
I feel like I'm not exactly sure what you're asking, and my Skype knowledge is still kind of pathetic, but it seems that one person has to do something to set up the group chat, and from that point on that person has exciting modly abilities like the power to invite people and the power to kick people out. And they get a little crown on their icon, lol, it's cute. xD
I was really expecting it to be complete chaos once we passed more than, like, four people in there at once, with people talking over each other all the time, but actually it wasn't that bad at all! Of course it might've helped that we had a few people without microphones, so they were typing while the rest of us were talking, making things a little less chaotic than they might've otherwise been. xD
It was a lot of fun though! It's so weird to me how I have such huge anxieties surrounding the simple act of using the telephone, even when I'm calling someone I know quite well, and then meanwhile I'm all "Skype chat with eight of my online friends? SIGN ME UP!!" xDDDD
