The new game page seems to break Chrome's back button.

I'm seeing a lot of this lately. They need to make use of $location.replace() after the path change is all.

And Firefox's too, odd but this small bit of UI inconsistency is often enough for me to not look further at an app; simply doesn't bode well.

Thanks for the feedback - we will be fixing this shortly

This really grinds my gears

The issue has been fixed! Thanks

Very cool! We were just discussing the need for something like this as we have a hybrid on-site/virtual team so our Planning Poker meetings become a bit difficult.

Couple of suggestions: 1) Allow flexible cards...the numbers we tend to use are slightly different 2) Allow mass import of stories once the game has started. Ideally I'd have one persistent URL that I can use in our recurring invite, instead of having to create a new game every time we enter planning. But since I can only do a bulk import when creating a new game I'd have to get a new URL each time.

This is a great idea (for persistent url).

I would also find it useful to just run the planning poker session without having to enter any stories. We are often looking directly at our JIRA board and don't need to fill in any information on a planning poker site.

I like the idea, Thanks!

Nice! I will be looking into this suggestions! Thanks

Looks cool and all but kind of worried about the code. Have a look at it: https://github.com/Wizehive/Firepoker/blob/master/app/script...

Everything is in the MainCtrl. No separation of concerns, at all. If you have felt that testing is hard (test folder looks a bit empty), it's probably because you're not separating things enough.

Very nice. A post about the technical details of how this was created would be really appreciated.

thanks! Great idea - we'll write a blog post about this

My colleagues built http://hat.jit.su/ also using AngularJS. Nice to see another one of these show up.

I've built a basic poker tracker with AngularJS/FileReader API called PokerStoker.com. Was just about expecting to see the same! :-) At the moment its sitting on HD waiting for me to polish it off. If theres any casual poker players out there that are looking for a simple tracker, msg me. I'll send you the beta link.

Some advice from my experience; 1. release the source with tests; 2. keep in mind people may be expecting source code that they can easy take away lessons

Any idea if you will there will be future integration for something like JIRA? This could really speed up the process of getting things up there.

I did look into JIRA integration before release it, since we also use it, but the on-demand version don't support CORS or JSONP, this is something that I would like to have but will require some extra work, so maybe in the future.

Very nice.

Suggestions: Allow more than one moderator and possibly a chat box?

Multiple moderators seems a good feature. A chat box may not come to this, I believe for most of the time users will be using another communication tool with audio/video like Google Hangouts, Skype and etc.. Thanks for the feedback.

By using EmberJS you could have made the pun so much better.

anyway to pull issues directly from github?
