  2. If you have a COMMENT, type ! and your name will be added to the line as well.

  3. If your question or comment has been covered by another Gryff before your turn is called type -! or -? and you will be taken out of the line.

  4. Once you "have the floor" you don't have to type in ? or ! to continue talking. You may discuss your question or comment with the host until you are finished. The host will usually ask you if you are finished before moving onto the next person in line.

    This is all on a first-come, first-serve basis.
