Yeah, great for lobbies like that. Can’t think of a more effective, quick to type thing you could dump in chat.
I’ve deployed it in real life too and watched a bunch of awkward 20-somethings go from nothing but occasional stressed sniping at each other to making “ooo ooo aaa aaa” noises while throwing themselves back into the job at hand. Truly a sight to behold.
Most of my use has been in games though, where I’ve accidentally become team parent to far too many groups and had to get a bunch of maladjusted shut ins back in the right mind set before a tournament or whatever.
I’ve worked in machine shops my whole adult life and shit like this crops up at each one in some fashion. The last shop I worked at, one person would just “OOO-OO” loud and everyone across the floor would join in to make a cacophony of ape noises for 5ish minutes. My current shop it’s a “Waooo”. People just get so amped being able to join in.
