1. We all know that the attention span of the average voter is very limited, so the average voter should take approximately 45 seconds to interact with our Drought Abatement Machine (DAM). No one except Aquaman should be able to complete the process in less than 30 seconds.
2. Our DAM includes a creative display of the passage of time .
3. DAM resets 60 seconds after the voter starts interacting.
4. Our DAM includes interactions with two Voters. It's impossible for our candidate to solve the drought by him/herself.
5. To prevent the possible abuse of the DAM requires coordinated interaction between the two Voters and drought abatement should not progress without the active involvement of both Voters.
6. The world’s scientists have exhausted all of the drought abatement technologies using 2 sensing modalities so our DAM should involve at least 3 distinct user interactions. To make the Voters feel good about their contributions each Voter must participate in at least two of these interactions.
7. Each Voter’s actions affects the interactions with the other Voter.
8. Our DAM requires large scale motion on the part of the Voters for at least one of its interactions.
9. When the Voters succeed in abating the drought, the DAM provides an exciting audio and/or visual experience that will inspire Civic Pride & Patriotism in the hearts of Californians everywhere.
10. In order to assuage the fears about the drought and appeal to multiple voters, our DAM automatically resets 30 seconds after it has successfully retrieved water. …
11. The DAM is usable without human instruction.
12. The DAM sets an external line to 5V whenever a user of the DAM has successfully abated the drought. That line should remain high until the DAM is reset.
