I made a website with my wife. It has turned out pretty well.
My wife and I used to play this game with each other once we started dating and decided to turn it into a website. The end result is Faveone (faveone.com).
It has taken about a year for it to get to where it is at, as I was new to Codeigniter and it was mostly just a small side project.
I wanted to see what the HN community thinks about it and get some feedback.

- jeer 16y agoFun! My only suggestion would be instead of having to click next, the page should automatically refresh after choosing.
- MPiccinato 16y agoThanks for looking at it. I have had that suggestion a few times. The reason I haven't change it to that is because I want the user to see the results on the page. I have played around a bit with a way to display previous vote results but haven't been happy with any of them yet.
- sendos 16y agoShow the results, then after X seconds automatically go to the next one. This way the user gets to see the results, and they don't have to click "Next"
- adam-_- 16y agoI like the design! One thing though, I was on my iPhone and it seemed like I always had to click twice to see the vote figures?
- MPiccinato 16y agoI noticed this on a friends iPad also, it seems that the first touch is the Hover event and the next touch is the actual Click event. edit: I am working on a mobile version of the site.
- yourentwesplit 16y agoI like the concept and wish you the best of luck. I'd consider adding a few different preloaded questions on the main page (or perhaps recently answered questions). Some people might be intrigued by "Would you rather?" while "Which is your fave?" might sound a bit bland causing them to click out sooner. Just a thought.
- MPiccinato 16y agoOn a page where you see a "this or that" or on the create page?
- coryl 16y agoThis reminds me of a YC funded startup that did the same thing, what were they called again?
- jacoblittle 16y agoA concept like this was funded? I am curious as to know who it was.
- coryl 16y agoLikebetter.com !
- MPiccinato 16y agoFrom what I can find it looks like it was launched back in 2006. Found this from the wikipedia entry for Y Combinator, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y_Combinator http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y_Combinator. See reference 9 at the bottom.
