Poker night RSVP
Players claim one of sixteen seats, and you know who brings snacks.

Filling two tables
Send the link to the group chat on Monday for a Thursday game. Seats go in reply order, which rewards the regulars who answer first.
Late arrivals change your seating. Put them at the table that starts with an empty seat, and deal them in at the next hand after they arrive.
One table of eight plays fine; two tables let you run a final table later in the night. Change the seat count to 8 for a single table.
Poker night questions
What happens when all seats are taken?
Deal me in shows Full and can't be picked, so later players can only reply Not this week. Copy their names into next week's invite first. If a seated player drops out, text the first name on that list. Those late players still see the goodbye message, which promises a seat warm for the next game, so nobody feels shut out.
Can I note the buy-in?
Put any buy-in or chip details in the intro. Fillio takes no payments, and home game rules differ by place, so keep it to what is allowed where you play. Many home games stay within the law because the host takes no cut of the pot. Say the blinds and when they rise, so late arrivals know what stack they buy into.
Can I run it every week?
Yes. Duplicate the form each week, or clear the replies after each game. The seat count resets with a new copy. Put the date in the title of each copy, so an old link in the chat never fills the wrong night. Send the new link at the same time each week, since seats go in reply order and regulars watch for it.
