V1 was a few weeks ago and got folks pretty excited (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6908181). Would love to see if the rewrite works better: it's now really easy to sync up with partners initially by posting a text on to the public lobby. Players sign on and proofread your text, and it's surprisingly fun to meet like-minded people, get feedback in real-time, and help others.

I am still a little confused how this works... Must i TRY it to find out? A "How it works" page for the proof-readers would be most helpful

Thanks for the feedback. Does the new blurb work better? I'm thinking of adding a FAQ or how-to page. So far, my focus has been on simplifying away anything that is unclear.
