- Shared rooms expire after 30 days without document edits; viewing and timer activity do not extend the period.
Field notes
The page describes a spreadsheet-like workflow: arguments stay in rows across speeches, with separate Aff and Neg flows and controls for undo, redo, focus, and printing. The XLSX import preview detects speech columns, lets users adjust mappings, preserves blank rows between arguments, and ignores formatting-only rows and columns. Shared PF rooms upload only the selected round; the page says local copies and exported backups remain available.
