I was just thinking about something - to make things more interesting.

  1. Instead of creating the cards myself, would it be more interactive to have the participants generate it themselves?
    • Customization could include choosing a colour for your card and perhaps allowing them to regenerate it until they are satisfied with the numbers. A deadline could be set to let the user lock in their card, after which he/she won't be allowed to change it. If the deadline passes and the user hasn't locked-in their card, the numbers would be generated by the system on their behalf.
    • I already have a web app created for this. It's only a matter of adding a way to authenticate a user. I'm thinking of going the "token" way (instead of having to login) wherein once the vCash is deducted, me or zimrahil will PM the user a token which would help the app identify who the card will be generated for
  2. To take it a notch higher, the crossing out of numbers could be automated too
    • This way, human errors could be ruled out (as in missing out on crossing a number or mistakenly striking out a number which was never called etc)
    • Could also give the users a chance to track things

Thoughts?

No worries. It's not set it stone, just an idea that was thrown around.

December would be cutting it close. New Year sounds feasible. A 1-month trial sounds good provided there's more support for it.
