Or just something simple like this: exten => s,1,PlayBack(tt-monkeys) exten => s,2,Dial(Zap/g1/xxxxxxxx,20,m) exten => s,3,Dial(Zap/g1/yyyyyyyy,15,m) exten => s,4,Dial(Zap/g1/nnnnnnnn,20,m) Basically, it will call the first person for 20 seconds and play musiconhold, then the second person for 15 seconds and play music, then the third person for 20s and play music. As soon as any of the people answer, it will connect the two calls, and when they hangup, it won't continue.
