"login with facebook" "Sorry"
It needs a social graph to do what it does. Do you have a better option for that than Facebook?

#23Why not limit it to say 3 friends? You can't have a crush on every friend (you might want to bang them, but not crush?)?
I like this idea, but perhaps it'd be better to rate limit to say 1 crush a day
Thanks for the advice. I really don't have any rate limiting features built in at the moment, but I will look into it. :)

#25http://www.downapp.com/ There are more examples of apps just like this that came before (this is the only one that comes to mind at the moment), the only way I would be remotely interested is if they figured a way to solve the inherent problem of selecting all/some of your friends as crushes to see who had you as a crush, and then what happens when someone legitimately adds the person who was just checking everyone's…
I've heard that this is a problem with real-life speed-dating as well.
I guess speed dating is always a conflict between making the most sincere matches, and making sure everyone has fun.
If that one person says "yes" to everyone, no doubt their intentions were to game the system, but if they avoid attendees going away thinking "no one liked me", then they've actually benefited the event's success.

This is what is scaring away most of the site visitors. Each permission has a reason for being asked for:
"&scope=email,friends_about_me,user_about_me"
email: to notify you when a match is found. an access_token grants us knowledge of only the users email and not his friends'. This cannot be used for viral email harvesting.
friends_about_me: To seperate views based on gender.
user_about_me: to help decide which view is to be "initially " displayed based on the users' gender.

#27Showstopper for me: Log in with Facebook
Sorry. There is no other alternative. It cannot be built without access to a social graph. I didn't think of including Twitter because of the user limits.

Why do you need to segregate based on gender, anyway? Boys can crush on boys, and girls can crush on girls. If they discover that they are a mutual crush, why deny them the fun?
If you really want to filter views, let the user make a explicit decision to filer view based on gender, using a drop-down menu or something.
