Technical Notes I>clickers can accept 400 clicks from 400 clickers pretty much at the same time so congestion is not a problem However, I>clickers were designed to answer a question and then accept confirmation that the answer was received… You must wait for the confirmation before you click again. If you just keep clicking it will interfere with the ability of the clicker to receive confirmation and clear for the next click.
