Basically my idea came from the shenanigans that went on in General Chat in World of Warcraft. I used the psychology I learned from the gamer community and how they behaved in faceless chat situations and I'm applying that to the real world since the technology is pretty much available.
Traditionally, game developers have total control of where every avatar exists in the game world so programming a general chat is pretty much trivial since you have control of everything and the gamer sits in front of a UI that he has total control over.
So in the real world instead of having a UI you have a cellphone and instead of the game matrix data you just use Google maps instead to pinpoint everyone's exact location on the planet. Thus lets see how this social experiment will play out and see if behaviors that have been analyzed in the gaming world will be fully projected into the real world

Which makes me curious, who's the genius that managed to make TL scalable to millions of visitors that pop in regularly?

Can't be an effective gaming simulator because it's only available on Apple devices.

This sounds pretty interesting, although as with all potentially cool apps/experiments of this kind it depends greatly on the uptake. Hope it goes well for yourself!

Absolutely!
But unfortunately for now we can't really afford the time/budget to pull it off since I'm currently working a temporary job to take care of my monthly rent and to feed myself. The same goes for the other 2 developers.
But we could most likely complete the android version within just 2 months assuming we get up to 100k downloads for iOS. That way we can find an investors to fund this project, I think I might begin a kickstarter campaign if you guys believe that this is a good idea.
