OMG. Just think about the flame wars with all the trolls around here discussing how to allocate donated money...
That's enough to pay for about 2 hours every working day for a year - for one person. If we're talking salary here. But then again, sometimes a little money can go a really long way for a project that has none...and you might find your return being quite large
I wonder if Krenzo would work fulltime on Empires if someone actually paid him for it? I'll do it if I win the lottery or catch a leprechaun.
Seriously if I won the lottery I would pay for: 1) Source license for empires(maby not read #4) 2) IF krenzo would mind getting paid I would pay him to work on this mod including back pay for all the years he worked on it. 3) Somone to give Empty and Chris a !!Super Atomic Wedgie!!(the one where your undies are ripped up to your head) 4) Hire at least 2 full time employees in each area of game design for this game 5) Profit??
U might have a problem with 1) Ain't a source license still around 500.000 $$? :eek: EDIT: It's rumored to be about 200.000 $ only, so quiet cheap. But Valve keeps the real pricing under a non-disclosure agreement. Whatever that means.
Only 2 full time employees? With enough money you should get Valve and Blizzard to make Empires from scratch. Alone these names will guarantee millions of players for Empires.
