Sea of Black Squares

Trigger: Cameras off; facilitator faces black tiles

Quick Response

Keep cameras off if you need to - but drop a reaction or a quick chat ping every few minutes so I know you're tracking. I don't want to talk into a void.

Trigger: Group lost on the infinite canvas; "where are we?"

I see folks scattered on the board. Everyone zoom out with me - use zoom-to-fit. We're working in this frame right here.
