This thread took a fascinating turn with the inclusion of estimated hourly values for the development team. We're about 3 1/2 years into this experiment. I would estimate the sweat equity at somewhere around half a million dollars. That might sound like a lot, but honestly in business terms this project has been amazingly efficient in hourly productivity.

If I were senior management at Sony or Blizzard, I'd be looking into acquiring this development team.

I think the biggest thing here is that when people put their hourly rate in here, they're actually working on the project the whole time. Whereas at work, I might put in 2 hours of real work on my 8 hour day [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
