Improvements on concept

(Originally posted Jan 31, 2014)

Going over some feedback in class, I feel like I should take stock of a few things I need to keep in mind before my final proposal.

1. Timeline. Mine was terrible, need to fix it.

2. Usability. Need more information on how the website will be used, how it will look, etc.

3. The name. I thought the name was honestly pretty lame, but I couldn’t think about anything else. It’s pretty much Kickstarter but without money involved. A suggestion I got was N[]8R (N-Cube-Eight-R) and that’s pretty good, honestly, I might use that.

4. Abuse of the system. I realize that the problem with the site, especially with the points system for backing projects, can be easily abused for substantial gain. I’ll look into how websites like BoardGameGeek handle their system and make it difficult to game the system.

5. I realize that I’m basically building an unabashed hug-box, but honestly, I think we need that. The Internet’s full of bash websites, why not a place for everyone to try being nice?
