Although it seemed like a throw away idea expressed in a recent thread, and being cognizant that it may be outside of some of our dear friends’ comfort zones, what do you think of TORn hosting a moot via Zoom?

that anyone can organise a moot - IRL or on Zoom.
*nudge*
But yeah, I get what you mean: it'd be cool to have an 'official' Zoom moot (a Zoot?) that anyone could join. Especially if it were around a particular event ... like the 20th anniversary of the release of FOTR...?
Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."
"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

such events go better if two self-sacrificing (or well-paid) folk with professional Zoom membership run the technical side. Then everyone else is free to participate.
Before illness hit the family, I was taking a uni course from Cambria in NE Wales. Certainly an opportunity I would never have had IRL.
I wonder if we could interview PJ, Fran, Elijah, Billy et al.? How much of the films could be considered fair use?
Just my tuppence worth,

Personality driven vs platform driven

I’m not saying that if I ran it that there are people who wouldn’t come, though I am loathe to put it to the test! Regardless, if the site ran it, cashing in on a favour (or two or three!) in the form of a special guest, I think attendance would be more better ;)

Several of TPTB did hold zoom meetings to discuss the various rounds and the reasoning for voting... it was announced and run from the Facebook TORN. And Facebook does have weekly meetings and discussion hosted usually by Cliff (Quickbeam) and Justin on Tuesdays.
Maybe sending them a message through Facebook to ask for suggestions or guidance would be one step to investigate.
