Hi Marco! :)
It's good to see you back!

First of all, I think it's a great iniciative, I'd like to see more of that
in the future.

Point by point:
1. Why do we limit the number of players? how do you mean to do that? Won't
a kid be able to play by himself while bored at home?
2. It's a matter about UI, it won't hurt to think it through a bit further
:).
3. Shouldn't the difficulty be the number of "pairs" we are displaying?

Aleix
