A clean tie can also be super helpful! If you are say...choosing between two ties, and you get a 6/6 verdict you know they are equally good (or bad!)
But thank you for commenting and reading my post...(not sure if you tried or not, but thank you if you did!)
I'm sentimentally attached to 12, but like other things on JuryNow, I've learned to let go these past weeks! I wanted there to be no 'skip a question' option, and no chance of doing JuryDuty without a question, but have embraced the overwhelming feedback on both those!!
Fristly, a big thank you for trying out JuryNow and for your feedback! It's very valuable to me! I can promise you it was 16 years since I had the idea. I wasn't working on the app itself for 16 years, but I was working on the idea, the way the game would function and HOW to get an app with no budget (and no tech/coding skillset). indeed, the app has been in test mode for 4 months, testing it with a modest number of friends and family during timed trials. But the scalability was in place for larger numbers. Saturday was a big test, and tbh there were a heavy number of trolls posting hate speech etc which I was prepared for, but not in that quantity! So I just wanted to point out that JuryNow has been worked on for 16 years!
Why fishy? I had the idea 16 years ago but lacked any type of expertise or finance to create an app. I've been pestering everyone I could think of ever since and the idea developed and I became more desperate and determined (but still lacking expertise and finance). And last year came across a way to make an app with no coding. I had already tested out the concept during lockdown with family & friends on a live anonymous Zoom with the polling so I knew it would work. Made the MVP on Bubble and here it is. So, what's the fishy part - I genuinely want to know so that I can maybe rewrite it so it doesn't look fishy!
Thanks for that - my post on HN induced a massive spike creating a few unexpected bugs (despite testing it for scalability for nearly 4 months) . Working on it!
so sorry about that! there was a bug 3 months ago (when i was just testing it with family and friends) when that happened, and one random question would repeat! And it's just come back tongiht!! (just as I post on hacker news!) i think it's fixed now! And thank you again!
THank you for this! That's really useful to hear. As you can see it's a very basic MVP for the moment, but I hope that when there are many more regular users and we can expand it, that the mobile app will be better and more user friendly! But thank you for playing!
Thanks SO much for trying! Honestly, interacting with real people who have tried my game after thinking about it non stop for 16 years is truly exciting! Indeed, the AI part is necessary (well I don't want to say evil but...) in order to show off he game as it will be, and after posting it on Reddit last week, it was working like a dream with real live juries answering! My dream jury will be age 16 - 99, from every continent, every profession and culture...because I do believe the more diverse the jury, the better the verdict!
Hello there! Thanks so much for trying it! Indeed, there is a filter to weed out any hate speech, self harm content, there is also a feature for jurors to report comments, and there is the User Agreement! But indeed, this was a big worry for me and put me off trying for a long time!
