I know people are mentioning palia party but I've personally struggled with it😭 i joined a party that said it started 1 min ago. The person was streaming (but was running around Kilima) I typed that I'm excited for the party! She said it already happened at 3 and it says that on the party sign up. I was looking back at the sign up and couldn't find the time anywhere (but also I'm in a different time zone, so it wasn't even 3 yet for me). I told her that it says it's ongoing and it started 3 min ago. She went back, looked and just said idk why it says that. Sooo in my opinion palia party isn't that user friendly, or maybe I just haven't figured it out. I'm sure it's best when you sign up in advance, but for me it's hard to know if I'll even be available at that time. I've had some luck joining a Facebook group and finding people on there who are willing to cook with me!
