Show HN: Vaguely Right, a Jev-based daily game – submit a clue to hit the target
minisani.comEach round you get a spectrum with a target on it (Calm ----X-- Stressful). Name something that sits at the target: a job interview, a walk in the park, a goose?
The closer you are, the higher your score.
Mechanically it's like a crossover between Wavelength and Family Feud. The model is prompted to place the submitted clue as most people would see it, so you are aiming for the consensus reading of the spectrum and your clue.
Every player gets the same 5 rounds a day. Free, no signup, play the game then see what others submitted.

When we prompt Jev we can't just ask it to place the clue on the spectrum, we ask: - a score for 5 levels specifically authored for each spectrum - whether the clue is specific enough or too vague - is the clue fine to show to a general audience, is it trying to steer the evaluator, hateful, nsfw, harassing, etc.

There are some fun, silly little touches in the UI. Try sharing your score.
My score from today: 10/20, let me know if you beat me :)
really like this idea it's so interesting to play
thanks! it took some iteration and effort to make the game (and the set of spectra+questions) feel good. For example, my first version had it the other way around, where you're given the clue and you just have to guess where Jev places it on the spectrum. It felt much more "artificial" somehow.
Thanks, that was an entertaining 5 minutes! Will play again tomorrow
Thank you for playing! If you want to play more now - there are other game modes if you scroll down the page.
