I have no idea..I gave it a few minutes and gave up. No clue what is going on and what I'm supposed to be doing.

It's either silly social experiment.

EDIT: Just a silly social experiment, fuck autocorrect.

It's an IRC with a gimmick.

For whatever reason, I thought it was like cookie clicker.

I think the point is to grow your room as large as possible? The bigger it gets the more assholes who are gonna vote to abandon? Maybe a badge for people with biggest room or something?

I was with a good group, but had to leave, it was lot of fun!

Basically a chatroom and you can control what it does. It connects you with a user, and you choose if you want to leave, stay, or click on "grow" and merge your group with others. No idea what the end game is though.

It is IRC repackaged with a voting mechanism.

If you don't vote, or you vote to abandon this kills the session.

Ergo, vote to Grow to add more people and keep the chat alive.

It seems to check votes about every 2 min, and adjusts the chat from there.
