SimSportsWorld - Sports Simulation Site (Basketball, Baseball, Football & More) - Off-topic

http://www.simsportsworld.com/forum/register.php?referrerid=94
SimSportsWorld is a website created by Rob Gardener which has been relaunched in April 2011 with a whole new attitude. It is currently only supporting basketball simulation (we're in Season 2) and baseball is scheduled to be in full swing *no pun intended* within the coming week(s). Then, in August, football will be implemented as well. Down the road there is plan to add ALL KINDS of sports, including tennis and many many others.
The simulation is bar non leaps ahead of its competition. Rob is an absolutely devoted developing genius who spends hours and hours bringing the simulation to a whole new level. The current system in place for basketball allows development from high school, into college and finally the pros. You can create players or coaches. You are given three free "slots" when you first sign up to do what you please, be it create players or coaches (or a combination of the two). Baseball will also bring a high school level, college and the pros.
There are also points which can be purchased from the point store which can be used to purchase cards, buy shares in teams to become a team owner as well as boost your players. New sets of cards are released each season for each sport and can be collected and eventually will be able to be traded between players, adding yet ANOTHER aspect of the game and reaching out to other types of users such as those who enjoy collecting cards.
In closing, I invite you to take a look around this site, read the forums and see just what we as a community have to offer over at SimSportsWorld.
Yours truly,

[APP] Cousinosity -[R]- 8/13/2011 -[U]- 8/21/2011 -[V]- 0.3

Name: Cousinosity
Update: version 0.3 is published (and should appear on the Marketplace within 24 hours). It includes a pivot with four additional items:
--an inverse operation that takes descent data and produces family tree info,
--an integrated browser pointing to the wikipedia page on cousin (includes history, etc.),
--an info screen with feedback buttons, and
--an item that collates the bizarre laws on marriage between first cousins in US states.
Cousinosity is the largest collection of things you weren't sure you wanted to know about cousins!
Original Description: Now available in the Windows Phone Marketplace! At the moment it is very simple: input the generations to the nearest common ancestor and see what kind of cousins you are ("fourth cousins twice removed", etc.). There are a few amusing Easter eggs with the edge cases. Cousinosity is useful for quickly settling the perennial argument about what "second cousin three times removed" means.
This is my first foray into development, and I was astounded at the high quality of the resources and tools MS provides, even for a rank amateur. I have ideas for more ambitious projects in the coming months, but I wanted to start contributing to the community as soon as I was able to. Any ideas, suggestions, or criticisms you have are welcome!

Update published, should appear within 24 hours
Cousinosity v0.3 is now in the Marketplace (or will be, within 24 hours)! While v0.1 was merely a humble implementation of subtraction, v0.3 includes a slew of new features. Spend minutes investigating the bizarre laws governing first cousin marriage in the US! Read about "double cousins" in the Wikipedia. Start with "fourth cousin six times removed" and figure out where the nearest common ancestor is!
If there's something you think would be good to include, I can code it up and put it in a new pivot.
great app.

Thanks! I'd like to next add a function that will allow you to input a simple relation database and will produce a graphical family tree. I'm getting busier with work, so that might take a bit to sort out.
At the risk of shameless self-promotion, if you actually like this thing I would really appreciate it if you could rate and/or review it on the Marketplace. So far the reviews I've gotten have been mostly written by people who didn't take the time to understand what the app does. Yes, this means I need to put more work into making certain things clearer, but I wish those reviewers had just used the included support email button. I have no way of pushing back.

tech start-up need help raising money- by simply watching short videos and voting!

Hi everybody. Me, my school, and a new start-up company called Froovie are working together to raise money. 60% will go to my school's digital media department, and 40% to the company. Also before I lose any ones interest all you have to do is watch a two minute video (or a couple of them) then vote on them, preferably mine. That's it. Heres the video I submitted: Mod edit: Link removed.
Here are the specifics to it:
The company:
Froovie is a new startup company that is focused on fundraiser for digital media classes, but can be used for other fundraisers also. It is currently in closed beta, and my school is using it and helping them fix the bugs because the founder knows our principal (private school). Basically you have people compete in a contest for a prize set by the school. Each contestant whether a group or individual will create a 2 minute video under the rules set by the school. They will then be able to share the video (as I am now) for people to vote. Each vote does cost $1, but you dont need unhealthy candy, or some product youll never use and can support a good cause. Each vote will then be split 60/40 profit between the nonprofit organiztion/school, and Froovie. Then whoever has the most votes gets whatever prize the organization the is using their services promised beforehand.
Why my school could use the money:
We are using the money to upgrade our media hardware and software. We have on Mac pro (I believe 2007) that works decent and only a few software generation behind, and then we have 8 10 year old Imacs where the best one is a dual core 1GHZ processor, 1GB of RAM, and 80 GB hard drive. We also have a go pro we just got, and a good sony camera. Obviously we cant do any video editing, and barely any photo editing on those computers. We are trying to upgrade the Mac Pro, and buy two new iMac 2012s (high end 21" version), and get adobe premiere pro on all of them, and use our own personal cameras. We currently do most of our editing on our home computers using about three different programs in our spare time, which is not that productive. Half the class has recently got premiere pro at home, or had it for the transition. We will use this hardware and software to put stuff in our newspaper, gazette, and yearbook for photography. Also for video we have a homeroom show we put out as often as we can about the latest stuff going around school, some comedy, and tips for the years, which is enjoyed by students and staff alike. We also do the videos for the jog a thon fundraiser which supports ALL school clubs, and several sports. We also make the videos for the homecoming and prom court, for rallies, and want to work on a promo video for the school. We also switched from loudspeaker announcements to daily video announcements on the school website. In the past we have also raised money for the school and got some of the seniors part time jobs by making commercials for local companies and such because we become proficient with our equipment.
what it does by voting for me:
It gives me, and the actors in my video the importunity to win a small scholarship if we win, and looks good on college applications (with a 98% college rate within a year after graduation we can create more stuff that colleges like). It will also allow us to make more videos and enter more contest when outside the class. Also as part of the prize I will be able to get these $70 dual turntables ive been wanting to get for djing as a summer job (I know several local big djs), and could possibly make free DJ mixes for anyone who votes and helps me get my career in media production and entertainment off the ground with the final pieces of hardware I need in class, and out of class.
How it benefits you:
besides helping out a good cause that helps us keep our class, provide people with better college transcripts,and possibly get a job in the future, you get to help a tech start-up get off the ground, and if we win get a free DJ mix! Some of us might even make some of your favorite youtube videos in the near future, and maybe be part of making your favorite big movie! You also get to make several dozen people's lives happier by watching a quick video and donating $1, or more (you choose how much, forgot to say that).
Other stuff that benefits us:
Others ways to help us even if you cant spend and extra $1 (which everyone has, even for someone you don't know who is a struggling student) is by reviewing our videos here and telling us what you think and how we can get better. We only had about two weeks to make these videos and edit them, and half of them are our first time editing! We have all filmed things, controlled lighting, and acted. But we have never had all of us edit or direct something by ourselves and either tell our friends what to do, or have other people in our class act for us. Another thing you can do is tell is if you find any bugs in the system, since I have direct contact with the founder, and some of their representatives. You can also tell us what new features the company can add to their site since we are basically an outside consultant!
Also if there is anything confusing, or anything I can make easier to understand please tell me. Also, if you don't want to vote for any of our videos, please tell us so we can make everything we do better as much as we can.​
TL;DR..
Self promotion, advertising, etc etc etc are not allowed....
It may be fir good cause, But its not allowed in xda AFAIK..
Please read the rules first...

Looking for Beta Users for our upcoming Bartending Simulator Game

Hey Guys (& Gals!),
We have an exciting new project that we're getting set to release within the next couple of months, and we're looking for feedback (good and bad of course!).
This is the first mobile game product our company has worked on - it's a cross platform (Android & iOS) Bartending Simulator. Here's a short description:
Get ready for the most realistic Bartending Simulator ever created. In fact, this may be the most interactive simulation ever created for any game genre! Three years in the making, we've tirelessly worked to ensure that every step in the drink making process has been represented. In fact, we're certain that once you've mastered BarSim, you can easily take the same skills to the real world. It doesn't matter if you've never poured a drink in your life, or you're already a veteran bartender, this game will challenge your skills and be a whole lot of fun.
We'd really like to get some solid feedback from users like you guys before we launch. You can access the open Beta on the Play Store directly at https://play.google.com/apps/testing/air.com.killermobile.barsim.bartender.game
We'd also like to offer the first 50 of you that offer any useful feedback a free license of our Total Recall Call Recorder app as a thank you. I'll post on this thread once we're up to the 50 free license limit. Here's how the free license offer will work:
1) Install the Beta version of BarSim from the link above.
2) Post here your experience, suggestions, ideas, issues, frustrations, etc - we want to hear it all!
3) Private message me the IMEI of the device you'd like to license Total Recall on
4) Keep enjoying BarSim & Total Recall and keep the feedback coming
I'm confident you'll enjoy our new game. It certainly has a learning curve as I refused to dumb down the process for the sake of simplicity. My goal was to release a true Bartending Simulation, one that mirrors real world bartending & drink making as closely as possible, and I believe we've done just that (I should know, as I spent 5 years bartending & a few more years training bartenders!)/
Look forward to hearing from you all.
Cheers!
