It's called Who's In? and it helps schedule community events.Here's the url: <a href="http://whosinwith.us" target="_blank">http://whosinwith.us</a>You might find it helpful if you participate in any open gaming at a game store or other common location, or if you play any loosely organized sports, like softball or hockey, or if you run online PBEM events, like ladder tournaments. It's useful for coordinating who is coming to an event, especially if you need to know how many others are interested before committing yourself. We use it to help verify attendance for our weekly D&D sessions.<a href="http://whosinwith.us" target="_blank"><img src="http://cf.geekdo-images.com/images/pic823543.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></a>Caption: Who's In? event pageHere are a few more things to consider...<img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/1.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":1:" title="One    :1:" data-shortname=":1:" /> How many of you use email lists to coordinate a weekly event? Who's In? is for you! Who wants to sift through a bunch of emails to see who's attending this week (and who's not)? Just visit the event's web page and see what's going on for your event.<img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/2.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":2:" title="Two    :2:" data-shortname=":2:" /> How many of you have groups where some of the group's members are active--and thus, will answer emails or SMSs at almost any time--while other members aren't so active? Who's In? is designed specifically for those groups. Once an event has been scheduled, the service will send an email message to all participants to come and submit a response, either "in" or out" at the website. (And for the truly lazy, you can even reply to the invitation email message without ever having to visit the website.)<img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/3.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":3:" title="Three    :3:" data-shortname=":3:" /> Do you know if someone is coming (or not), but they haven't bothered to respond? Who's In? has got you covered. Just visit the event's page and submit an answer for those members.<a href="http://whosinwith.us" target="_blank"><img src="http://cf.geekdo-images.com/images/pic823542.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></a>Caption: Who's In? participant controlCreating an event is easy (and free!). There is no account to sign up for; it just uses email to notify everyone. It's also meant to be smartphone friendly.If you are concerned about privacy: (a) others can only see your name, not your email address, and (b) for our day jobs, we've been running a datacenter specializing in protecting sensitive data online for over 9 years now, so we get it and take this stuff seriously.Anyway, we're looking to give something back to the community and we'd love to hear if you find it useful. Let us know what you think about <a href="http://whosinwith.us" target="_blank">Who's In?</a>.</blockquote>
