I hosted a dinner last night, and abused the situation to test the new update of Table mesh with 5 people and 8 devices. It worked! There were some rough edges as well as a catastrophic failure right at the end, but that was because i intentionally tried to break things.
That was from a technical perspective, but i also observed what actually happened at the table. People were mostly focussed on their own screen/phone. They did share the experience, but the attention was not focussed on the center of the table where normally the board would be, eventhough i had a tablet that displayed the board; all the information the player needed was on their phone as well, and as such never bothered to look elsewhere. This part needs some reflection as well.
