This question seemed to bring about the strongest response. Of the twelve people questioned, each and every one of them agreed that it is definately a major issue to locate a club that they have never been to before. The difficulty of finding a nightclub definately impacts on the decision making process, and having the iClubber interconnected with the Google mapping application would definately make decisions easier and would essentially influence which nightclub to “hit up”.

There were a number of different answers for this question, however i have managed to draw some useful ideas from these answers. As a whole, there are two simple factors which should contribute to grading the “status” of a particular nightclub. Firstly, it must be taken to consideration the ratio of males to females. Secondly, the estimated line up time as well as a probability of successfully getting in should contribute to grading a nightclub.

Overall, regular clubbers take a number of factors into consideration when picking and choosing which nightclubs to “hit up”. A number of people have said that it is not only the size of the ques, but also the type of people that go, the price of entry and also the price of drinks. One person said that they base their decision on whether any clubs have any promo offers such as two dinks for the price of one.
Prototypes: Gathering User Requirments
When constructing my protoype there were are number of issues that i needed to take into consideration. Firstly, it was important to find out what specific information people require when deciding which nightclub they will go to. Secondly, what factors should contribute to grading the status of a particular night club. Also to find out if there are ever any difficulties experienced in finding particular nightclubs, and whether or not a built in mapping feature integraded with the iClubber application would have an impact on the choice of a particular nightclub.
Taking all of the above issues into consideration, i devised a simple questionaire to extract information from people that fell within my targeted user group: people between the ages of 18 and 30 who enjoyed going out to nightclubs.
Q1. What information do you take into consideration when deciding which nightclub to? Eg the size of the que.
Q2. In your opinion, what factors should contribute to grading the “status” of a particular nightclub?
Q3. Do you ever have problems in finding nightclubs that you have never been to before, and would you find nightclub mapping within the iClubber useful?
