So I'll be funding this project $100. Lets use this $100 as wisely as possible and make it stretch as much as possible also.

What should we use this money on?

I've got an account on getafreelancer so I can definitely make a job offer on there paying a few people for help.

As LordVanya knows, Vizzed.com will be placed on the title screen, probably the very bottom, for it's funding and support in this project.

At this point I don't know what to do with it.
Should we split it up amongst the team at the end of the job?
If so, should we take donations to enlarge the pot?
I mean It's not like we need to get any hardware or anything of the sort.

Oh, and about the Viz points, should we make it fare and give some to each team member on a per contribution basis or something?

LordVanya : For Viz, maybe we should figure out how many hours each users task takes and award them 5000 Viz per an hour worth of work.

Well with the money, I was thinking that if we could find someone to do some of the roles, I'd just hire someone and pay them to do some stuff. We can let people donate toward this project but I really don't see that producing much money, if any. I had another project years ago which was called 'Vizzed Flash Bash', it was suppose to be an 8-16 bit clone of Super Smash Bros, the game only got 50% completed due to the fact that I was only able to generate maybe $20 worth of donations in about a 1 year period.

Good points.
Figuring hours might be a bit of a hassle.
Especially when you consider that some things can take as little as a few minutes to do.
I think it might be better to figure out an amount of points to pay per piece. Like for songs we could pay out a number of points based on the song's length. Graphics can generate points based on the number of 8x8 tiles they are comprised of.
ASM coders are the hardest to find so maybe we can use the cash to woo them.

LordVanya : Yeah I figured we'd probably need some of the money for the coding part since that's a skill which is very hard to come by. As I said, I'm willing to pay out plenty of Viz for this, I know many members who do hours worth of work for me just for Viz (and of course to help out the community). The 5000 Viz per an hour is just a rough estimate, just to give an idea as to how much we'd be paying.

Davideo7 : Good, because 5000 Viz is way too much to pay for just one little hour. Just a couple of Viz like around 1000 would do for a regular hour of work.
