Project possibilities. Please come Dobbs!

[FlamingChihuahua]

Now, as most of you know, we are dead, I even wonder why I'm posting this, but here's something:
people are attracted to money. Can't we do something with that? Well, I'd like to have us think of some projects. It will help us run more contests with better prizes, thus giving us more members.

Well, here's my project possibility:
leasing a guild, that's right, leasing one. Basically we could have partys rent out a secondary guild that I could help to pay for, but it'll be hard.
Some tables of the project;
24 hours=500g
1-6 days=1k
1 week=1.5k
1 month=7.5k
well, a year would be stupid, so here's the deal:
I will appoint someone to own the guild. We will give the renting party the task of inviting members or have them give us a list and invite them ourselves for 100g extra. The renter will be appointed as a vice captain so he can make his crew. We will ban all members of the party when their lease is over.

Now, please, I ask of you to tell me what powers a vice captain has, since I have never been one my self.

Remember this is only a possibility! Please tell me how much you think the leasing should cost, note that I will not heighten my costs unless you give a good reason. The first 20k profits will go back to the people who funded the making of the guild.

Please come up with other project possibilitys!

Have you completed your own market study, or are you basing this off a previous study?

oooh, lookit the big college man with his big college terms
like "market study"
what the heck is that

Nevermind that. It had nothing to do with the topic, just totally seneschal poking fun at myself. What I really want to know before we purchase into any of this is if there's a demand for guild rentals out there. If there actually is, I see no problems with it.

Vice Captain gets all the same super powers as the Captain himself, which is pretty much just the ability to delete the guild, change some more stuff, and create subforums.  

[FlamingChihuahua]

They can delete the guild?!??!
I wish I knew that.
Hmmm, yeah, I should do studying.  

[FlamingChihuahua]

Ok, leasing is out. How 'bout hiring a good advertiser, someone to make banners and stuff?  

[Dobbs]

I'm good at making stuff, but I'm extremely lazy. Acquiring nice banners and such is a good idea, but unless someone here makes them, it'll cost gold. And gold is what we always need, even for that one idea I had that I never shared.

That idea was for a lotto/contest thread with decent prizes people would actually want. I was planning to do that after we change the forum, which will happen sometime.

Actually, the banners would be better after we change as well. Ah, I've got to get on that.  

[Aeaea]

You should really make that thread. It worked wonders for the other guild, after all... It would probably work better here, though.

New banner!



Ehh, I think I need name modifications. Sorry it isn't the best, to the banner thread!  

[Dobbs]

I don't have much to give away, besides event items that everyone has and presents anonymous people gave me. I suppose I could charge a small entrance fee, though.

You ignored my much less than perfect banner, whatever, it only took 10 minutes. I've never joined a single guild with an entrance fee. I don't think you can even touch the entrance gold because it goes to the guild account and not the mule.  

[Dobbs]

I meant entrance to the lotto. Guild entrance fees are useless, since you can only want so many subforums.

What program did you use to make that banner?

I'm a complete amatuer paintshopper. I forgot how text whites out parts and you can't overlap the ovals apparently.
Just running a free paintshop trial, it actually is a fair program if you can work it right.
Well, I can redo this, but seeing as our lucrative mods change their avvies all the time, I think this avvie best suits counterloop with the color oval. I just barely fitted the ovals over the avvies (for spacing) and so the avvie's outlines stopped my fill with color option to where they touched the outer edges, thus making it easy for multicolor ovals.

Nah, the square ponts out that you are the captain. Nobody would pay that much, you're right, the person who first got photo to pirate probably used a disassembler like flasm or foo.flm to hack it out.

any torrent site will probably have at least one version
Though of course you'll need bittorrent first to use torrents. Limewire's good for downloading individual songs, torrents are good for downloading games, movies, shows, whole CD's, etc.

bitTorrent itself isn't illegal, so in case you need it: http://www.bittorrent.com/

uTorrent is the best tool to use for utilizing torrents, imo
