Well, I am an Evil GM because I don't like people so I don't know how long I
can put up with you :) but I have a spare room I'm thinking of renting. As
for feeding how much do you eat? Only three of my group can cook, and only
one is within 40 miles (I eat out or from cans/boxes). As for pay the most
they ever pay to play is cover charge at bars for Live Action Roleplaying,
which is $5-$7 dollars for all night (about 6 hours) and no one could afford
more (maybe the grant could match your intake?) so with 6 that's $30-40 /
day, but you could only get that much on weekends when everyone can show. It
also would have to be a home-brewed adventure since we have (collectively)
all the adventures written in English and are trying to get the rest.

See, now this is getting all to complicated! Jeez man. Maybe what
we can do is collectively buy a Winnebago and I'll just drive it around
running games. And then, the all you guys have to do is stock me with food!
Yeah, that sounds better don't cha'think?

Make sure you equip it with an amphibious operations package (level 3, if
at all possible), so you can also come and GM for those of us who don't
live in the Americas :)

Plus I'm fairly sure you'll be the first person to cross the Atlantic or
Pacific with an amphibious vehicle. The sponsorship deal should get you
enough money to pay for the vehicle and games, so it's really two flies
in one blow... if you survive the trip that is.

Personally I thought we'd just give it wings and a SERIOUS engine!
:) That way it'd be quicker!

That's a pretty good idea. It would have to be a SERIOUS Winnebago
though. Hmmmmm, I'll have to think about that!

See, I have to agree, I'm more inclined to do that too! New TV show
eh? Does that mean we'll have a theme song?

It's Mog, the combination of Man and dOG, but I don't think we've got the genetech needed
to make one yet.

Yes, but I was almost sure in the credits it was spelled MAWG.
