I've been thinking about this. I don't have much in the way of cash, but I don't mind setting aside $20 or so a month to run some of these. Monthly, or more-probably bi-monthy, with a newbie one thrown in every now and again? I had fun doing it, and I can think of all sorts of things I'd like to see made. I figure the more regular they are, the more people will get into it, and it won't have to always be the same people running. People up for that?

I'll set something up around the beginning of the next month, then. Bi-monthly seems good. I don't know about funds, we'll see how this one goes and how I feel about it and then talk about that.

I'll start a thread just before the month ends then run it through March, and see how it does. If it works out then we can talk about a fund for the next ones or a prize pool or whatever. I spent five minutes and came up with enough fun things to last a year if doing it bi-monthly, so themes aren't difficult, and I don't mind revisiting older ones. I haven't even looked at the list! I know what the first few themes are gonna be, anyway. People can suggest others and I'll put them on the list too. I don't mind running a fund for the future ones. I'm good at spreadsheets and I like to think I'm trustworthy? I have been doing the gift train for over a decade now. The only issue is I'm not in the US, so Venmo is, as I've recently discovered, out. It's basically paypal, bank transfers or amazon gift cards.  I haven't ever looked into how the other funds do it.Once a pot is set up, we'd have to sit down and talk out how money gets distributed. If some gets rolled over to the next month when there's above a certain amount in the pot, or if everything in by closing gets split into fractions for the winners. 50% 30% 20%, or 40% 30% 20% 10% ? It would depend how much was in the bank I suppose! We'll work it out. I assume I need to talk to Jeff before anything happens anyway? For the first month, I'm just gonna put 20 americabucks in for the winner and 10 each for the two runners up. Having some help with it in the future would be appreciated, but for this time I can afford it. It should be fun!
