OneDrive/IT help, please
For the last year or so, I've been using a shared Excel sheet on OneDrive to organise about 100 people for an online game. Now there appears to have been an update, which requires everyone to install their own copy of Excel in order to enter data.
Can someone point me in the direction of a free online collaboration thingy that will let lots of people just enter a single Excel line without installing anything. Needs to work for androids and apples. And give me something at the end that I can C&P into Excel. Oh, and be super simple as most folks are non-english speaking.
Collective brains of EVO - go!

Use excel in the browser via onedrive.com

Apple users seem to have problems with Google sheets (and need to download the sheets app), and NG - that's exactly what I've been doing up to now, but it seems that it demand you download the Excel app now.

Although on this occasion, not entirely deserved.
I genuinely have Googled, and just get a whole bunch of collaboration tools that require everyone to download a specific/proprietary app.
I just want something super simple that works off a browser and lets users across any platform to just write their name and a couple of numbers, and do it in a way that makes my life easy when I come to download it (i.e. a simple C&P into Excel)
ETA: Each fortnight this a around 100 users from a pool of about 250 mostly Japanese and Koreans. Trying to explain what to do is like herding cats at the best of times, and if it's anything less that super simple, I get a load of moans and complaints in Japanese that I have to deal with one by one. This can't be beyond the wit of man

I was just doing one of my usual lame jokes

In case anyone is interested, I think I've found a solution - Google Forms
