Ever been waiting for your opponent to take their turn 1, wondering if they're there, and try to chat with them to ask?  I've been on both sides of this, and realized that if you're stuck on the goko game-loading screen, you can still chat with your opponent via Salvager!  You just have to be slightly comfortable with javascript, and have the Salvager side-log turned on.

Open your js console.  When Salvager diverts your opponent's messages to its sidebar, it also logs them to the console, so you can see what your opponent says there.  To talk back, use Salvager's function for sending automatic chats like "#vpon", like so...
GS.sendRoomChat("sorry, stuck on loading screen, yay goko");

Note: Only tested on Chrome on Linux.  And I know this isn't all that helpful most of the time.  I just thought it was neat to still be finding new things that Salvager can do, it's almost like a feature added by accident
