How Do I Play Sounds in Basecamp 3?

Here at BLISS we’ve been using Basecamp 3 for the past few months and we have to say we love it!

We feel that Basecamp 3 is a great improvement on version 2, and our team now use it to stay organised across all our on-going projects.

BC3 has loads of fantastic project management and communication features but the icing on the cake is that it’s fun to use.

Team BLISS have recently been having a lot of fun with one feature in particular: the sounds in Campfires & Pings.

The Campfire sounds are triggered by typing /play followed by specific keywords and who doesn’t love a celebratory Nyan Cat or a quick “DOING IT LIVE”?!

As I’m a bit of geek, I wanted to know all the /play commands but couldn’t find much documentation online.

So, I decided to write my own:
