Hi there,

awesome game so far! I just wanted to have a quick look yesterday and woosh, 5 hours gone :->

I now wanted to see what's going on on the Discord Server, but it requires phone verification. Is there a way to get accepted without giving Discord my phone number? Maybe a manual approval / check by the mods? Unfortunately I do not know how to reach them via Discord.

Thank you very much :-)

Its an issue with discord itself unfortunately, if you want only """real""" accounts to be allowed into a server, discord's only metric for that is if they're willing to hand over a phone number, which I loathe. 
The only other option is letting in anyone and everyone, or invite only, which would be a bit ridiculous to manage.

Yeah, I understand that it is to keep out spammers and bots as good as possible and that a phone number is the only thing Discord currently allows to verify as a "real person". If there is no other way in, then so be it. Thanks for your reply :-)
