About Six Degrees of Nooj

Q: Who made this website?
A: Li-Wen Yip wrote the code. Sam Hubbard compiled the original source data set (thanks Sam!)

Q: Why is it named after Nooj?
A: Because everyone knows he's BABS' best baritone I couldn't think of any other Mononymous barbershoppers in BABS. And as it happens, Nooj is actually quite central in the network - the largest Nooj number of anyone in the database (at time of writing) is 8.

Q: Why are there some links missing when I select "Show me x degrees of x"?
A: Because it's only showing the closest links to each person. If it included ALL links then it would look very messy and have no hope of layout out nicely.

Q: Why doesn't it work properly on my computer/tablet/phone?
A: Because I'm not a very good web programmer and I've probably used some ECMAScript feature that's not well supported across all browsers.

Q: Can I get a copy of the source data?
A: Yes - download from github

Q: Can I make corrections or contributions to the source data?
A: Sure, create yourself a github account and then you can make edits to the source data file.

Q: Why doesn't the source data include LABBS/SAI/mixed quartets, or quartets from other countries?
A: Someone get me the data, or see above re contributing via github.

Q: Why is the web design so ugly?
A: Because I couldn't be bothered making it look pretty.

Q: Can I help add more features or make the website look more sexy?
A: Sure, see above re contributing via github.
