This is from a nice new app we’ve been working on for the last month or so. Any idea what it is and who we’re building this for?

Sneak peek

Update: First right answer gets two great books. Can’t tell you what they are about without giving away the answer, I’m afraid…

    Michael, it's a two-part question; you also need to guess what the application is for if you want to win the books...

  5. Manfred Stienstra about 7 hours later: (delete)

    I guess I'm excluded from participation right?

  6. Thijs van der Vossen about 7 hours later: (delete)

    Yes, you are. And your pets and relatives too.

    Agile Development Support Tool with Mike C. winning 13 spending points just now? The goat on the mountain top is just some funny distraction!

    Is i a book about using Rails to build puzzle apps? Maybe something that has to do with complex logic for games?

    Is it a quiz, where the first right answer is displayed ?

    I am guessing it's for project management, and the screen shown involves time estimates.

    It seems it's already been established it's for Mountain Goat Software too, so I'll just reiterate that in my guess.

    I guess asking one of your employees is considered cheating, so I won't reveal the answer. Sounds like an interesting application though.

    A card game :D
    for 888 ;)

    All I can think of is that Mike C has completed something, and '13' represents something regarding that...like how long it took, a percentage, or something.

    The others haven't completed, and their results aren't shown.

    Planning poker is the game. The units are story points. I have both of Mikes books already ;)

  16. Rodney 21 days later: (delete | show email)

    Ok, Eben's right, but he already has the books. So for the record, I agree with Eben. Can I please have the books now, thanks !

  17. Thijs van der Vossen 21 days later: (delete)

    And we've got ourselves a winner! Eben gets another pair of Mike's books! ;-)

    More information on the books can be found at http://www.mountaingoatsoftware.com/books by the way.
