No password needed.<br /><br />server: irc.sff.net (standalone server)<br /><br />room: #notprimetime<br /><br />There are several irc clients you can use to access the chat like Chatzilla, mIRC, andchat for your Android phone, etc.<br /><br />For more information about connecting to the chatroom, <a href="http://yuletide.livejournal.com/846698.html">here's a link</a> (the post is how to connect to Yuletide's chat, but the principle is the same).<br /><br />Gophering<br /><br />While Yuletide chat has hippos, Not Prime Time has gophers. Gophers are people in the chat who volunteer to act as a go-between for people so they can keep their anonymity until reveals. They are noted by the word Gopher in front of the username they choose in chat.<br /><br />Example:<br />BridgetM<br />GopherBridgetM<br />GopherJenn<br />Jenn<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=not_primetime&ditemid=1630" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
