The Italian Job – Hunting the million

This is not just the title of a movie remake by Felix G. Gray but also the topic of a bet within our team.

It was the 10th of December. Without any warning we received this mesage from our dear friend and colleague Tamim: „If our users should have created a data base of 1.000.000 flashcards by the 31st of December – which I really doubt – I will invite you all for a dinner at an Italian restaurant”.

Well…this should be possible. We accepted the bet. Of course, we didn’t want to stand idly by. So we realised a few new promotional activities to get more people using the Pool. The hunting for the million was started.

On the 16th of December Tamim asked us after having a look at the flashcard development of the past six days: Ok, when do you want to do the Italian job? We couldn’t avoid grinning broadly. Who doesn’t want to go to an exclusive Italian restaurant?

Without you hardworking guys we would never have such a nice dinner. A big hug to all of you. Self-evidently we talked about new features for you in CoboCards.

We deeply hope that Tamim will offer such bets in future again. There are still Indian, Turkish or Chinese restaurants which would be happy to do the catering for us 🙂
