How about a sports league management system?
You need to enter teams, assign them to divisions (maybe in a season), pair them up in matches, record the results, display match results & league tables, and as an extension, manage promotion/relegation between seasons. Then think about cup fixtures that are played, but don't affect the league standings.
Team & fixtures can either be added singly or imported from a file.
You can decide to leave chunks of this out to adjust the size of the problem, or even add them as time goes on to demonstrate agility .
Regards, Stewart

That's a fairly good idea. I've yet to see a decent package that meets the need of a Little League Baseball division.
The difficult may take time, the impossible a little longer.

I was reading a CodeProject article and noticed that it was marked as deleted; I was surprised as the article was good and looked at the author:
http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=2757697[^]
Best article on C#/Database, MVP with 52,752 points.
So, I'm wondering, can there be a good reason for someone to delete his good articles?
(except, of course, account hijacking)

This[^] reply (and the thread) should answer your question.
Not sure if it's a good idea to reference that thread from the Lounge. Please nuke this message if you want.
Your time will come, if you let it be right.

That's quite the most impressive dummyspit I've seen in a good while.
"It's been published for one month and it only got 38 Upvotes" (paraphrasing a bit) was my favourite - I wish most my articles would get that many votes in total.

I like that he has to insist that "the voters are not my friends"

It's probably wrong to make fun of the English of an English-as-a-second-language speaker, but it almost sounds like the 38 up-voters did him a disservice.

After all the fuss went to read the article...What surprises me that so many people found it good! How that? Isn't CP a site 'for those who code'?

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I have little time to spare, so I skip articles that seem not to bring me any novelty; and I assume that there are many like me; many asp.net/security experts didn't bother to read the article so it passed as ok for the people that are in the process of learning.

What I want to know is how is it that he still has 37k Author points with zero articles...

Maybe the articles were severely plagiarized and he/she was found out. So he/she deleted them.

You're talking about the Amsterdam red-light district, aren't you? Sure, that's what you're talking about.
