I have a neighborhoods shapefile for Macon, Georgia. It was FOIA-d from the police department by the local newspaper, the Telegraph.

I'll convert it to GeoJSON and try it out on my laptop, but in the meantime: it'd be great if you had a documented process for uploads.

The removed small ones should not be counted in the main button.

(Visible in Chicago and probably Lexington.)

After playing a round on hard, selecting a new game of 20 neighborhoods shows the completely filled out green map instead of the proper map for the game. Refreshing fixes the problem. It's a pain to replicate as you need to play a whole game on hard, but I tested it when I added Rochester, and on Portland.

Also, perhaps a "Give Up" button that shows the neighborhoods on the map (which would be handy for testing bugs like this) could be added.

(Cities are to Silicon Valley what neighborhoods are to a typical city.)

Make a list smaller, maybe make a map, divide by country, etc.

Related: #4, #16, #37.

Ezra, perhaps you might be interested in doing this…?

Some of the shapefiles (e.g. Baltimore, Chicago) seem unnecessary complicated and take too long to load.

Boroughs as we have them now are not really that great: http://click-that-hood.com/?city=london

When you visit https://click-that-hood.com:

You attempted to reach click-that-hood.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as *.heroku.com. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version of click-that-hood.com. You should not proceed, especially if you have never seen this warning before for this site.

We don’t really advertise HTTPS, but some people somehow use it anyway.

St. Louis and Zürich are suffering because of this.

One of the most recent commits (since last night) seems to have created an error for me. Will be investigating more later today, but here's what happens as of this commit:

After cloning the repo, I did npm install and then:

➜ click_that_hood git:(master) ✗ node app.js

Is there a way to set the zoom level to just the neighborhoods that are used in the game? Or add the zoom tool back?

“like social media sharing buttons for twitter/fb - so you can share the came &/or your time/score.”

Hey. Great application!

It does not work in Internet Explorer (IE) 9 or less. Which is fine, but it just breaks. It's not graceful about it. It would be awesome if it had a message that suggested the user upgrades or installs a new browser.

• Make sure neighborhood names are title case
• Make sure neighborhood names are not empty
• Make sure neighborhood names are not repeated

Could be a fun little feature. 😺

Basic contours in my mind:

1. Leaderboard is shown at the end of (either) game
2. Specific to each city
3. Shows both of the two leaderboards (Basic and Difficult modes) after either difficulty-level game (to encourage those playing Basic to try Difficult)
4. Also accessible via "View Leaderboard" button from the city-specific start page and a static URI
5. The Leaderboard shows: name, (optional) Twitter handle, time

At the end screen, possibly start screen too?

Should validate that:

• Name of geojson file is lowercase
• Data URL should be fully-qualified, with protocol, etc.
  • Make sure data URL resolves
• Author name resolves to valid twitter ID

Positioning of tooltips, tooltips that appear as you “hover” (drag) your finder, adjustments for touch targets…

…but probably requires a complete re-thinking of the game for both tablets and smartphones.

I believe this needs to happen in the application layer. I've done this before in Rails, so it should be possible!
