Hello everyone,
I want to use regular sequence on planning poker but i cant find some cards that i need (i.e. cards like 4, 6 and 7)
Is there any way to get a full customized cards?
thanks
Planning poker typically runs on the Fibonacci sequence: 1,2,3,5,8,13,21,etc. The reason you don't have those cards is that they are not useful. Quoting from Mike Cohn of Mountain Goat Software (regarding use of 20 vs 21):
We know that the Fibonacci sequence should go from 8 to 13 to 21. We use 20, though, instead of 21. Of course we used 21 in the early days, but dropped it after meeting with a product owner who looked at the 21 and said, “Oh, a 21. You must be very confident to give such a precise estimate. Most people would have called it 20 or 25, but you called it 21.” We replied that we used the Fibonacci sequence. The product owner said, “The Fibo-what?” After which, we decided that deviating from the Fibonacci sequence would be better because the numbers started to imply a very high level of precision that just wasn’t there.
If you're hell-bent on having your own cards, you can modify their deck and find someone to print them: https://www.mountaingoatsoftware.com/agile/planning-poker/license
Fowler,
thanks for answer. I know that those cards are not very useful but are needed in my company.
Thats why i am asking if there is any way to add them to the regular sequence like in most planning poker softwares.
Thanks again
