Hi there,

So this year i've got to do a big project in Java and just coming up with my idea proposal just now. I've been given a list of example projects but they are all very alike and hum-drum and generic and I'd like to do something a little more interesting. Some of the examples are like shopping carts, order systems, appointment booking systems.

The only real requirements are that it must access and use a database somehow and to tack an appropriate interface on - we are being taught a lot of JSP and Servlets stuff so I think they are angling for a web interface. Also, my own personal requirement is that it will hopefully help me get a job next year!

Some of my own ideas are like a mini casino kinda thing that could keep user accounts and statistics and maybe some scoreboards?

I also had an idea of a type of wrapper system for computer games (like X-Box Live except obviously wont be as good) whereby it will record user scores and be able to produce leagues and tables and all manner of statistics and I could also tack a reward and purchasing system on to that? Dunno if I would be adding in too much for myself to do if I go down that route though.

Anyone have any alternative ideas, feedback on my own ideas or advice for me?
