Informal Updates

Hey all,

I ran Narrator live with 26 people, and it seemed to go all right. Here are the results:

If you're keeping track, Baratheon's have won this game 3 times. Twice with Starks (IRL) and once on Forum Mafia. (Woo)




Anyway, I'm back to fixing the mess that I've made of the browser User Interface. I have a couple strategies I could do, and could use direction in what I should prioritize in the short future.

-Continue working on Mobile
This'll allow any of you to play IRL with friends/family. Currently, you're not able to add roles, or view who's in the lobby.
-Clean up browser
The setup page, and home page are unusable at the moment, but the game play page is still working fine.

I realize both need to be addressed before I could give a greenlight to Helz for some publicity. But internally, i'm a lot more comfortable that it'll stand up and not break anymore.

If your looking for an opinion I would 100% say you should dedicate absolute focus to one of the two projects. Finishing one would result in a larger player draw for the other. I would personally say to focus the browser based first because it could very easily spread through the global community and create a large player draw for the mobile version.

That results feature is really cool. Looking forward to the future development of either versions.

As said in the updates page, i've trashed the old look, and am rebuilding it. It's taken me a week to get the tablet version of the setup page, so i'm expecting 3 more weeks to get desktop back up to par. After that i'll go back and finish the rest of the setup customizations that I had previously scrapped.

In the mean time, I'm a LOT more comfortable with it not crashing, so soon as that's done, I'd appreciate (and give the green light) for publicizing it.

Helz,

I've polished off both versions, so I'm ready for any publicizing you had in mind. I've also put a blurb at the top of setup to warn people that if they join a public game, they might not initially encounter anyone.

Would you mind telling me where you post so I can help coordinate?

[Helz]

Yeah, Its finals week but I will try to start putting some things together
