Okay, so now I have Skype up on my laptop. I see yellow dots next to some of your names, but I don't know what it means. I'll just sit here and see if this thing rings or not

Yellow basically means offline/occupied. It`s stupid. Just go for the green folks

Oett - when you messaged me about an hour ago, did Skype say I was available? I thought I had stopped it from loading at startup, but apparently it has started doing it again on its own.

I have skype up right now, it should say I'm online.

alright, I gotta get on this. I think it was O' that asked if I was the Rye and Coke on Skype. I think.

Does it only work on Apple devices?

It also works without mic and camera. Chat only, or you can block your camera. Cam is not required

That's funny I always thought skype was strictly a video chat thing.

Yessir, got mega hammered last night, couldn`t make it to skype.

I passed out before our guest left.

But he knows me, not the first time he was sitting there alone in my flat with a snoring oett next to him

Hear ye hear ye all drunkards!

Everyone is welcome to join in on drunkard Skype so come aboard!

It is not a clique, it is open to any and all who want some joyful drunken camaraderie across the globe. Don't be shy!
It took me a year to finally join in but I'm glad I did as I have made lifelong friends from doing so. (Not to mention I picked up a drunkard husband on there along the way).

Just PM Oettinger (or Badfellow, Mista Willies, or I) with your Skype name and we will hook you up to the madness. (Well maybe don't PM Badfellow as he is a bit mentally and technologically challenged).

To clarify:
You don't have to participate in video chat. Just have a mic so you can participate in the voice chat. There is also text chat for those that are extremely shy.

Hope to have a drink with you drunkards soon! Cheers!

Or the text can be used for those working an off shift like myself. I hate not being available for the fun. Gotta make that paper so the booze can flow though.
