PaQueueKa: Badminton Queue
Albert Antioquia
PaQueueKa takes the clipboard, the whiteboard, and the "who's next?" arguments out of badminton night. The host creates a session, players join by scanning a code — no account, no sign-up — and the app handles the rest: building fair matches, rotating the queue, and keeping score. HOST A SESSION IN SECONDS • Pick singles or doubles and set how many courts are running. • Share a 6-character code or a QR code. Players join from their own phones. • No login for anyone. Just a name, a skill level, and an emoji. SMART, FAIR MATCHMAKING • Players are matched by skill tier, so games stay competitive. • Teams are balanced automatically using an adjusted win rate that doesn't punish newcomers. • Recently-paired players aren't stuck together — partners get mixed up. • After each match, players rotate to the back of the queue so everyone gets court time. LIVE COURT CONTROL • See every court, who's playing, and who's up next at a glance. • Start the next match with one tap. Record the score. The queue updates itself. • Edit a lineup mid-match, fix a player's skill tier, or remove someone on the fly. • Best-of-3 scoring supported when you want it. RANKINGS & HISTORY • Live, in-session rankings update as results come in. • Every past session keeps its final standings and full match history. • Players get a shareable recap card at the end of the night. SPLIT THE COURT FEES, FAIRLY • Set the total or a per-match fee. The app divides it up. • Split evenly, by matches played, or equally among everyone who played. • Mark who's paid with a tap. Apply per-player discounts when you need to. EARN BADGES • Milestone badges for matches played, wins, and sessions — Bronze to Diamond. • A personal profile with your stats, play time, and the people you've played most. DO MORE — ONE-TIME UNLOCKS (NO SUBSCRIPTION) Hosting a session and joining one are always free. Two optional one-time purchases add more if you want it: Player Plus — for the regular player: • Personal performance analytics and insights. • Pro Identity cosmetics: an animated avatar frame, exclusive avatars, a name color, and a custom tagline. • Extra reveals on your end-of-session recap card. Pro Host — for the people who run the night (includes everything in Player Plus): • Create your own club with a crest and members. • Persistent club rankings across every session. • Quick-start session templates so you're set up in one tap. • A saved guest roster — regulars carry over night to night. • A club ledger that tracks who owes what across sessions. • Club events with RSVPs, and co-admins who can run sessions with you. Both are one-time purchases. No subscription, ever. Already have Player Plus? Pro Host is offered to you at a discounted upgrade price. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW • Creating, joining, and ending a session needs an internet connection; in-session actions like recording a result keep working if your signal drops and sync when you're back. • No ads. No third-party trackers. No account required to play. Got a court full of people and a list of names? Let PaQueueKa run the queue.
