When playing long-term 'games' with a group of people it is hard to keep score/ measure the validity of points. For example, my brother's uni house has a points system where you gain points by doing stupid stuff (like bleaching your hair etc) and at the end of the year whoever has the least points has a massive forfeit. They keep these scores on a whiteboard in their kitchen. The only problem is that someone in the house keeps fiddling the scores and no one knows who it is. What they need is a site which can show them their scores, what they got points for, who witnessed whatever it was that they got points for, and possibly also maybe some benchmarks/ rewards for getting certain numbers of points.
A solution to this problem could also be useful for chore delegation in families. Prehaps kids have to get a certain number of points per week and they can get these points be doing certain chores. ??
Who are the stakeholders?
my brother, his housemates , anyone who plays games like this with either their family or friends.
What is currently being done to solve this problem?
There are scorekeeping apps online already but not with all of the features. The ideal for this would be something between those apps and a habit tracking app.
Points for games that cant be messed with
