    Hi folks.

    I’m in the process of building a festival tipping competition application that will eventually be deployed online. Before I get started on it though I have requirements gathering to do. Please fill out this short survey to help me get an idea of what the users would get out of such an application. Its only 10 questions.

    This will be submitted as part of my H.Dip in Web Technologies so don’t get boistrous about spamming or anything. Hopefully I can make it a viable product but in the mean time its a college project. I’ve cleared it with cormack15.

    Questions with * beside the number are required.

    Some questions are multiple selection answers, others you can choose only one answer. Try fill it out carefully.

    Any ideas for a name of the site/URL?

    Thanks.

    Well folks, its been a long time between drinks but we’re nearly there. I say nearly but theres still plenty to do on my end. Its coming along great and now I can focus all my energies on the application, progress will be faster.

    Heres a taster of the application, which I must remind you, is still in development. Any graphic designers on here should speak up nowe because that is something I’m awful at and any input would be appreciated. Remember – it’s your application too!

    Hello again folks,

    I’m getting a the beta version of the application on the road this weekend with a dummy test run before Ascot and your all invited to join.

    I really need a test to go smoothly before trying the Royal Ascot Competition.

    Sign up today and the races for Saturday available already. I’ll be able to update non runners fairly regularly so if you think you’ve selected a non-runner, I can destroy your selection so you can make a new one.

    So sign up today or tomorrow and you can make selections right up until the off time of each race.

    I haven’t implemented a “Lost Password” function yet so try keep hold of your password until after next week at least!

    One caveat is not to judge the layout or design too harshly because its a BETA release and I’m an awful designer. As mentioned, I hope this goes smoothly so a Royal Ascot competition can happen.

    If theres anything you don’t understand or think could be made clearer or done better please supply feedback either here in this thread or by email to the address at the bottom of the page in the application.

    Thanks!

    These are the 6 races for Saturday:
