Need to figure out what idle text is shown. I am imagining really basic stuff like...

"""
TAP
HERE
"""

...or...

"""
TAP HERE
TO PLAY
"""

...but we might want something more explanatory for non-players to participate (this text is crap, but is an indication)

"""
TO PLAY, TAP 
YOUR TAG HERE
(FROM SHOP)
"""

We could have it alternate between two or more sets of text.

"""
TAP HERE
TO PLAY
""",
"""
TAGS AT
GIFT SHOP
"""

I need to know this as I have to choose a pixel font which can make this as big as possible, based on the text chosen. It will of course have to be different from the main text font.

I have managed to extract at least some of the fonts available from the U8G2 font set.

We think we could go for alternating between 2 texts; but inversed out as we'd discussed and obviously just on the mains powered boxes
