I think we can simplify this with one slider that covers the entire range of post codes: 00000 - 99999
Slider? No, it’s a button that you have to hold down to scroll. And it moves ridiculously slow, like some streaming services.
Ah, I’m thinking US ZIP Code
What about our Canadian brothers and their codes?? F4S6D4 😂
Easy, 36-base slider with 6 place holders. All potential post codes between 000000 and ZZZZZZ.
You could add a scroll wheel on the screen that you drag to scroll, and let the user set the gear ratio via a similar mechanism.
Postcodes are letter letter number number space number number letter letter
Put all of the postcodes in a paginated list that displays only 30 entries at a time (60 and 100 per page for premium users), only has next/previous navigation buttons, orders the entries by popularity, and goes back to the first page if you reload the website. Or an infinitely scrolling page that loads each page dynamically, but returns 429 Too Many Requests if the user scrolls too fast.
I reckon someone should try that
I don’t care what the particular number is, but it’s a dart throwing game and you have to get all the numbers correct in one shot or start over
Yeah that part I was particularly proud of… It’s so unusable
I also made some dumb number entering shenanigans for https://faxyourballs.com/
My favorite was suggested by a friend: the radial button selection for every digit, but with digit “10” sorted up at the top.
I should go add some more…
