How are people randomly selected? Do you pull names from a hat? Is it really a fair and impartial drawing? How do you do it?
I'm also a bit confused as to why you would call it a "Q". As most people know, a queue (also pronounced "Q") is a line. People in this line are waiting for either goods or services and are taken care of in the order they arrive. Your "Q" is a random drawing. I find this misleading. Maybe you should change the name now while it's still early.
Additionally, would it be possible to make some of the photos larger? The Antony Micallef show catalog looks marginally interesting but even the large image of the single page (582x800) is too small to see the detail. Maybe for something like that you could show multiple pages. You should also post more details about the show catalog, such as dimensions and number of pages.
It would also be great if the webpage could show how many others are already in the "Q" for an item.
To answer your questions:
- Users can select how many winners they want to win whatever they have in their Q
- As people sign up they are assigned a number. At the end of the registration period, the system uses a random number generator and selects numbers which match up to the people who sign up. Again, it doesn't matter when people sign up as the numbers are selected randomly
- I intentionally left off the feature which shows how many people are waiting in the Q for a number of reasons, but we can easily put it in. The Q owner (the person who has setup the Q) can see how many people registered though.
- Yup, we can make the image bigger. I'll add that to our to do list
- as for the name, point taken. But, the message is that while it is a Q (you're waiting for something) the process is also made "Fair" as it's not a first come first serve deal :wink:
Thank you very much for the feedback though. Tihs is exactly what we need to make the product better.
