Feed the room
One sentence from your phone. It waits in a queue. A presenter accepts one at a time into the crystal. The room does not drive the stage.
House rule: your own words, one sentence, and nothing reaches the crystal until a presenter accepts it.
Presenter desk: the queue. Main screen: the artwork.
What happens to your sentence
- what you hand itOne sentence, capped at 240 characters. The judge does not run on this page.
- what gets storedThe sentence sits in the presenter queue. Shared Redis holds it when configured; otherwise it stays on this instance and the page says so.
- what reaches the stageOnly an accepted sentence. Skip drops it. The crystal never reads the raw queue.
- what the model seesThe same /api/feed judge the paste box uses, and only after a presenter accepts the line on the main screen.
