I'm pretty new to the forum however, I agree with Manfred (again). This game is really awesome and has tons of potential. I think making the current version real stable would be real desirable. I'm just learning the complexities that ZUP is having by reading this post. I don't know how many man hours of programming are required to fix the complicated glitches but it seems to me that the top 1000 pilots are really hooked and would stand to lose the most if this game wasn't at their fingertips. That said, if each of the top 1000 were assessed a one time $25 programming fee you would have an extra $25k on top of existing revenues to kill the bugs. I mean, if I was told XYZ bugs and enhancements were going to be completed in X time and it would cost me $25/mth for X months, as a top 1000 flyer, I would recycle all my plastic bottles, collect all the coins from my pockets daily, keep my wife's change when she sends me to the store and maybe even sacrifice a beer or two and sell some lemonade at the corner.
It seems to me that we all collectively have a stake in this game and I know I've been paying as much as $15 for a six pack ((beer)...
really good beer) lately so i'd be happy to donate $25...I haven't spent much time thinking about this but something this good with as many people using it should be able to generate the revenue to fix and enhance it.
I'm sure this has been talked about 100 times; so if I'm late to the party...just ignore me; I'm a newbie
. Otherwise, I'd be willing to join a brainstorm team if there is one. My mind is reeling with all the possibilities this product could deliver over time
