Spewing a thought to get MFN out there.

Hey, all at JDB:
MFN has a tremendous amount of math involved for the nerdy...
Today, while working with a bunch of 9th grades on parabolic (quadratic) math and yaddas, I had the thought..
Perhaps... Line out a way for HS level ALG2 courses to use MFN - or maybe see about talking to a few local math teachers.
Having a hard time putting this into words, but I am thinking maybe introducing at a local level to some math teacher... the game, and giving them the formulas behind the scenes of the game (sign NDA, of course)...
Cart first: Math clubs. Math teachers. Provide the teachers with a way to check the students ****, fun!
Perhaps. Anyway, it is a thought as their is a ton of numbers in this game for those who wish to pursue them.
Pardon my rambling train of thought but I think I got it. Just put the horse first lol. Was kinda hard for me to flesh out, as all initial marketing thoughts tend to be.
Expansion of ideas etc wanted :)

Currently looking at being a math/econ major in college, not sure how I feel about a 12 year old knowing the algorithm and killing my new rebuild team 86-3.

In all seriousness, this game definitely needs some better exposure. Random google ads aren't gonna cut it. It needs some targeted social media/instagram ads and a YouTube presence at the very least; anything to put it in the 21st century would be an improvement and promote revenue, which would in turn further development and quality.

If anyone would also contribute, I'd be happy to get an advice ball rolling in this regard

I teach math (although it's middle school and this would be somewhat over their head) but I had the same thought to add this to my classroom as part of my statistics unit. Kids would love it, just not sure how much they would understand with all of the features. Great to get the ball rolling on this though!
