Ugh someone please help me. I'm a complete beginner and computer science in general and have paid for a university course that was advertised as for beginners when really they've just put us in computer science graduate master modules.

I've managed to scrape by so far, but I need to do an assignment for Android programming where we develop an app from scratch that's a turn based pub quiz style game between 8 players, controlled by a game master. The players need to be invited from the contacts list and their pictures imported into the game layout which i've prepared.

As I am a complete beginner, I will be seriously ridiculously grateful to anyone who could help explain to me how to just do this first step of inviting contacts to the game.

Many thanks for reading,

Lynne
 
Well, it is important that you make a decision of making a web-app or an native android app. If it is an native app.
One possibility for both options is to communicate with some kind of web service.
Second possibility (for nativa app) is to use e-mail or sms to invite.

Your question is a very abstract architectural question. I can't realy help you out with some implementation...
