Thanks for the response. How do you get assigned twice though? Once a task is assigned I don't see a way to be able to assign someone a second time. Does it happen via a menu that's only available after someone has missed an assigned chore?

Also, any interest in releasing it as an open source project? :~)

Hmmmm it's probably best demonstrated with an example: if you have users a b and c, a normal rotation of a chore would be a b c a b c a b c ... and so on. If user b has 2X, the rotation would be a b b c a b c ... Does that make sense?

Assignment and rotation happens automatically. A chore is setup with a frequency, etc, then as users are assigned they are notified and they only need to intervene when they do the chore.

Yep, I understand what happens after B has 2X, but I'm confused about how you can get to 2X in the first place. If you go ABCABB then it doesn't look like C gets 2X, it looks like B gets O instead.

How does a mate end up with 2X in the first place?

Also: are there chores where everyone is assigned? Like "pay your rent" where it's important that everyone does it?

When you don't do your chore, you're assigned the chore for an additional contiguous period. e.g. Floors are set to be swept every week. You didn't sweep the floors on time this week, so now you will sweep the floors the next 2 weeks.

There are group chores, but there aren't penalties for individuals missing group chores so that's a use case hole.
