First Ever Ghost Encounter- Need Input

Hello! My friends and I have recently gotten interested in ghosts / paranormal activity, and decided we would go to an old cemetery (featuring graves of old Quakers and people who died in the 18-1900s) with an Ouija Board, and ask some questions. Once we got there, and it was relatively dark, we went to a cluster of tombstones and set up the Ouija Board to try and talk to the dead.

Before we put our fingers on the board, we said the following phrase: "We invite only those spirits who mean no harm, if you bring lies or malice - you are not welcome here." We then put our fingers on the planchette, and asked a simple question of "is anyone there."

After a minute or so, the planchette did not move, and all of our anticipations crumbled down. Suddenly; though, a loud noise (seemingly one of a banging on a gong) was heard out in the woods by the graveyard.

The sound shocked us all, and immediately scared us. We started asking if the spirit was unable to contact us through the Board, and asked if the gong was their way of communicating to us. A minute or so later, we heard the gong again.

After around 5 minutes, the gong noise stopped. We started to think the entity had left, and we're ready to leave. Out of nowhere, again, we heard the gonging noise. This time, it was fainter - and happened twice in a row.

We then left, and went back to our car. Once we got in the car, we took the Ouija Board out one more time. That was then when I realized that the planchette had no glass part in the middle to keep a spirit in it. My friend had gotten a fake Ouija Board, or broken one.

As we drove home, we were all confused on the gonging noise. We had visited the graveyard during the day and never once heard any type of gong noise like that, same with the woods. That's when my friend realized something very interesting...

He claimed that we were able to summon a spirit, but they could not contact us through the Ouija Board as the planchette was broken. This is why the gonging noise happened, as a way for them to contact us...

In my mind, this truly is the only scenario that makes sense. I have never had an encounter with a ghost like this, and was wondering if any of you pros could have any input on what I experienced. Do you think my friend could be right? Also, should we go back with a working Ouija Board and try again? Thanks for reading!
