Banter Board overview

The Banter Board is a competition-wide message board where participants can post comments, reactions, and taunts tied to round results. It gives your competition a social layer — a place for the commentary that usually happens in the group chat to happen in the hub itself.

What participants can do

• Post text comments (up to 500 characters)
• React to others’ posts with emoji reactions
• Reply to posts in a thread
• Post directly to the board from the results page (“I can’t believe I got that one wrong”)

When the Banter Board is most active

• Immediately after round results are confirmed
• When a big upset happens
• When there’s a lead change on the leaderboard
• After a perfect round is achieved

The Banter Board is off by default. Enable it per competition:

Note
