TODOs

• Alternate suits in suit order always.

• "1 tricks left"

• Flash the tab to pull focus back to the game if someone's doing another task in another browser tab.

• Stats & analytics

• Cleaning up orphan games (cron job that calls rake task).

• Make a robot that plays the highest legal card, for testing purposes.

• People with the same handle?

• Use some of this code? https://gist.github.com/378255

• Remodeling along the lines of a Backbone app? Think of separation of concerns and small models. What does each piece have to know?

• An observer to publish records?

• Clean code that has gotten dirty.

• Refactor the card code.

• Write in pure node? No need to change the API, just the endpoint.

• Routing from / into a random game with people waiting. Players get a url to share. At 4 the rando joining stops, because the game is in progress.

• Multiple rounds?
