New game: Elevator Computer

I was standing at the elevators in the Coronado Springs tower (that's my on-topic tie-in), admiring the elevator system that asks for your floor before you get in, and assigns you the most efficient car. These are fantastic.

I thought it would be fun to make you the computer, and see how you keep up.

It's very rough, needs work. You can't "install" it yet, either. I'll leave it at that and let you try, without biasing the feedback.

(BTW, it's best played on touch screens.)

Really fun. I don't know how good I was at it though.

I think easy, 6 seconds is good. Medium, 9. Hard, maybe 14? My scores are all over the place there.

Fun, and potentially addicting. My only request would be a way to undo an accidental click, or reassign a passenger if the elevator hasn't responded to the request yet. (My example: I had a passenger on the ground floor and I accidentally clicked on an elevator that was on its way to the top floor. I had meant to assign them to the elevator that was on floor 2.)

The Marriott on Canal st. in New Orleans did this when I went to Mardi Gras about 10 or 15 years ago.

It was so nice and efficient, especially because all of us were staggering drunkards.

Reassigning would be tough, mostly for UI reasons and space constraints. But also, I kinda like the idea that you have to make decisions and own them. 🙂
