I haz an idea!!!

[Tornadic]

I WAS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not the Idea, I still like the idea. But the math! I took the total ANNUAL cost, and divided it my the MONTHLY income!

I figured this out just now when I was wondering how much it would cost if the working people were making $24,000 annual. And I came up with 1500 subscribers. Hold on let me re-crunch the numbers from before and see what I get

...

I'm going to show my work So I know I can't screw it up this time.
1) $30,000 for 4 employees plus $30,000 annual operating costs does NOT equal 180,000 annually it's 150,000.
2) $150,000 divided by 12 (months) so I know how much MxO inc. would need to make to operate gives me 12,500
3) Divide that by 7 (amount per sub) and you get 1,786.


1,786. That is a FAR more reasonable number. I bet this community alone could convince 1800 (including current forum members) to play MxO reloaded. Hell, I personally know 3 other people that would sub this game if it came back out.

BTW. For all those saying WB or SOE would never agree to it. No one's asked yet. Sure they'd probably say no but I still think it's worth a shot.

Oh! and now my desk is covered with post-it notes that have numbers scrawled all over them like I'm some kind of mental patent.
