Hey,
I made a little mini project that I thought you all might enjoy. It is based off of the board game Wavelength (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alxhague/wavelength).
The basic way it works is:
- The clue giver gets a category, which is a two-ended spectrum (e.g. Buy none -- Buy them all) and a random position on the spectrum. The clue giver has to name a card/card-shaped object that they think falls at the given position on the spectrum. They can share their clue with a URL for other people to guess.
- Other players look at the clue and guess where on the spectrum it actually was. The closer they are, the better they did. In the real game, the middle blue band is 4 points, the adjacent orange bands are 3 points, and the outside bands are 2 points.
To make your own clue, hit the "Make a Clue" button, type your clue in the box, then hit "Make Link!" and copy/paste the link that comes out. The link should automatically go to your clipboard so you can even skip the copying part. You can press the "Make a Clue" button again if you don't like the criteria you were given to get a newly generated one. (though in a real game, getting stumped is probably part of the fun?)
To guess on a clue, go to a clue link, then move around the slider and hit the "Guess" button.
The website is at: https://hroll.github.io/dominion-wavelength/
Here's a sample clue that is probably not too hard or controversial: https://hroll.github.io/dominion-wavelength/?guess=1&category=6&clue=Copper&goal=2415047
Let me know what you think! Also, if you have any suggestions for new categories, that would be great! (If you're curious, the list of all categories is at https://github.com/HRoll/dominion-wavelength/blob/master/src/data.ts)

is this what you're hoping we do here?

This is great! Wavelength is my new favorite go-to when I need a Code Names-like game but people don’t want to play Code Names. And, well, throw Dominion in there and you’ve got a good time.

What does the guess parameter in the URL do? It looks like it's always 1.

It's nice to see people posting some clues :P
I got the outermost ring or completely missed most of them though... :'(
Does anyone have any suggestions for more categories? I was going to add Menagerie (the card) // Menagerie (the expansion) and might as well add some more while I'm at it.

Ahaha, I entered the exact opposite of the goal for that one.

If you omit the guess parameter, then it will let you enter your clue (and ignores the clue parameter). Having the guess parameter with any value will do the opposite, guessing with the given clue to get the goal. The goal is encoded with a not very secret encoding that is good enough for anyone casually looking.

I fixed it and replaced Adventurer with Wharf.
