I think this is a fantastic idea.

I've rarely heard the word "commission" in game development circles. This is perhaps because of it's ambigious meaning...it could mean pay-when-published...it could mean you are in charge of selling an already made product and receive commission on sales...etc. But I've never heard of people "Developing on a Commission"

No 2. Someone that was offering cash upfront for a big project would have thousands of dollars. And would not look here for team members.




Wrong. I have thousands of dollars (tens of thousands in a month or two when my grant starts) for my projects and I ALWAYS offer cash upfront. I have met with TREMENDOUS success recruiting from right here and I can only say that I would be even more successful if we could separate the jobs wanted as suggested.
