Thank you again Barry!

[–] JuryNow@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

Sorry! Not very clear!! What I mean is that if you had asked an actual question - and had received a live Jury verdict - would you feel less let down?

[–] JuryNow@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

Thank you Stamets - I like your honestly and I have taught that lesson too! I tell you what would really help me more - if you wouldn't mind sharing the games you have developed or the types of games you like playing! I'm guessing if it's more action/scifi, then JuryNow might not appeal? (not necessarily mutually exclusive, but possibly a different gendre!!)

oh! I'm sorry you say that because I genuinely want to hear every word of feedback! I have had the idea fo 16 years and only just worked out how to build an app with no code in the past year...It's taken me forever to produce it, so i really do want to hear your thoughts! (be gentle, I'm nearly a pensioner! -)

Hello Stamets, Thanks so much for playing and sorry you are let down! If you don't mind, would love to tailor my description of JuryNow so it's more accurate and doesn't lead to disappointment! That's the last thing I want!! Now you have played, and assuming it was a live jury of 12 judging your question - whether it's what shirt to wear, or whether to take a 6 month job in Antarctica (my nephew took a 2.5yr one!!) would you be less let down? Thank you again!

Hello Slippy, Thanks so much for playing! It's super exciting to see feedback and I'm really grateful you took time to come back to Lemmy & let me know what you think! I think Lemmy & sites like Reddit are amazing and revolutionary for that debate, discussion open conversation type of situation they create. So if it's a peer group conversation you want whether it's office attire, family row, political debate...that is where you would go. JuryNow is more about a very diverse group of 12 people from Guatemala, Germany, Gambia, Georgia who are made up of all ages, cultures, professions, giving you a verdict that is pure unadulterated wisdom! The more diverse the jury, the better the verdict! And so while the JuryDuty can feel la bit like a chore, the part where you get your verdict from 12 real people is exciting if it's your own quesiton, and you know that 12 people have just considered it! Well this is what I hope and when lots of people are playing online simultatneously and all the juries are live, it works! But I'm learning that the negative feedback is a load more valuable in some ways! REally appreciate it!

hello there Barry, thank you so much for playing firstly! You never get to see other player's verdicts for a few reasons....no confirmation bias, it keeps it's anonymous, and - when I launch the proper version - it will be one free play per day so it keeps it more of a daily ritual, rather than playing too many loops (this is because empathy & objectivity decline after a while!) But THANK YOu for the feedback. I'm also thinking of having a feature where you can opt to share your question and verdict, and you can opt to ask for it. Do you think that would work too? (lots of people have asked this, including my chronically curious bf!)

Some recent examples on JuryNow to help you get started: Is immigration good for the economy? Yes/No, Is it bad to be honest with people and tell them that children born now are likely to have a terrible life growing up because of global warming? Yes/No My boyfriend say my sneezes are too loud and annoy him and i need to supress them. it's true they are loud, but i have hayfever and it's painful to keep them in. Supress/Don't supress Do you avoid walking under ladders even if it means being quite obvious and superstitious? Silly superstition/Avoid ladders My brother is struggling to graduate college - and I helped him get through and pass his senior year courses. He got into grad school, and I’m worried he will be leaning on me again. tell him not to go to Grad School/tell him I won't help Someone keeps ripping down my LGBTQ activism stickers off of lightposts. Should I super glue them or give up? Stop putting up posters/Use superglue

 

**JuryNow **is a new browser-based game where you ask a yes/no (or Option 1/2) question and get a verdict from 12 strangers around the world in 3 minutes. While you wait, you do 3 minutes of JuryDuty answering other people’s questions. There are comments or discussions, just clean, human decisions.

You can ask a moral dilemma, a big life decision, a workplace problem, or a get a global objective opinion on a family argument, take a mini political poll in real time, or just ask a trivial question. It's also great for fashion choices because you can upload 2 images.

It's fast, social but anonymous, and a little addictive.

⚠️ Since it just launched, if there aren’t 13 players online, the verdict is temporarily simulated which is needed to demonstarate teh how the 3-minute system works. It’s MVP stage, so please help spread the word if you like the concept.

Try it: https://www.jurynow.app/

No ads, no tracking, just pure opinion gameplay. Would love to hear what you think.

getting hacked in just 20 minutes due to a basic misconfiguration is alarming!

Making WSL open source could actually lead to some useful contributions and better transparency overall ; and good for Linux tools?

Hello Turtle - Thanks so much for playing AND for your comments. Indeed, it was a dilemma because on the one hand, JuryNow is very much intended as an antidote to AI, instant veredicts made from real human input...but if one is launching an MVP where the 3 minute time limit is crucial to the entire concept, it needs to demonstrate that too...But on the plus side, when it works and there ae more than 13 players logged on, it is marvelous (i know it's disappointing when it says simulated)! So i'm really looking to encourage more players. But thank you very much for your feedback, it's highly apprecaited.

oh thank you!! I'd never heard of it! and it does have simalarities (although JuryNow is designed to just be played 3 minutes a day, otherwise if you play if for 20 minutes, one's empathy/objectivity levels can plummet!) Thanks so much playing & for your feedback Teawreck!

 

I’ve been working on this concept for 16 years, and just launched a playable MVP it’s called JuryNow, and I’d love your take on it.

The idea: You ask any personal dilemma or life choice (serious or silly) and get a snap verdict from 12 real people from around the world, anonymously, within 3 minutes.

But here's the game loop: 💡 To get your verdict, you "pay" with ** Jury Duty** answering other people’s questions for a 3 minutes. The questions can be on any topic from a fashion dilemma to a workplace problem, to a big life decision or a mini political poll.It’s fast, instinctive, and weirdly addictive.

There is no commentary, discussion or debate...it's just a binary choice powered by human collective intelligence. It gives you a global perspective on a decision if you are stuck, and if you aren't! JuryNow plays like a global social deduction/party game, where objectivity, empathy, and instinct matter more than logic or debate.

You can ask questions like:

"Is Atlas more of a girl name or a boy name?"

"Celery vs. broccoli/ which is more hated by kids?"

"Someone keeps ripping down my LGBTQ activism stickers off of lightposts. Should I super glue them or give up?"

It’s kind of like Wavelength, Cards Against Humanity, or The Resistance, but... micro-sized and real-time.

Would love your honest feedback as board game fans ...what works, what doesn’t, how you’d explain it to others, or whether this could ever make sense as an app or even a table top version one day?

Thank you! 🙏 Just to clarify up front: JuryNow® is trademarked and not open source and not designed for self-hosting. It’s a live, centralized platform I’ve built over many years, and I’m sharing it here and would love feedback from board ganers! (not to release the code or architecture.)
