Oof good catch, thanks.

I built a thing. Answer 20 quick thought-provoking questions. Chat anonymously with people that answered exactly the same. Game resets at midnight UTC.

New day = New Q's = New Chats.

Always free.

So true. What's the best reference, guide, or write up you've come across that helps clarify?

Here's a link to bypass the wait list: https://beta.drugwars.online/install?code=ti83

Good point, however, I'm not sure I can recall a time during which someone intended to collect a URL from me but allowed just "example.com" as a valid input. I'd venture to guess that the validation enforced more often than not actually helps the site owner achieve their intended goal.

Can you go into detail about your setup? Sounds awesome.

Agreed, 100%, about the tone of the "community advocates" parse has answering questions and supporting the forums (their internal + s/o). Huge turn off.

The downtime is extremely frustrating. They are pretty nonchalant about it as well, which is actually more of a concern than the fact that there was an issue.

Beyond that, there are some good use cases for apps to be built upon Parse and bad ones. It turns out that the thing I'm building is one of those bad use cases.

Parse appears to frown upon background processes. They have very tight restrictions on what can be done in the background and how fast it must be done.

If you have a social-esque app, at any kind of scale, fanning things out becomes a problem.

clerky.com is close

Just came across http://www.clerky.com which seems to be a preferred method but lots of startups. Anyone used them?

Yea... I went with web-first since that's what I needed. Mobile-happy is on the way.

Looking for user feedback to drive the integration priority. Drop me a line - [email protected]

Indeed. Thanks for catching this. It's been a race since launching to button things up.

I hadn't seen any when I built it.

=)

Really appreciate the feedback. This is all very helpful for me to work on.
