Texas Hold'em for VB 3.5.x (if your interested post within)

[guile09]

I see that somebody has a domain for this, which I think is a good idea.

We should put up a private vbulletin forum with a paid membership of $200. People who are interested in contributing would signup and their $200 would go toward the development and intergration of the software.

All paid members that signup would be an active part of QA during the development. The programmer(s) would intergrate all beta versions directly into this particular vbulletin forum and recieve feedback from contributing members. Or something along those lines.

We need somebody willing to take on the responsibility of collecting and holding payment. Will refunds be possible without incurring paypal fees? If there will be fees in the event of a refund, are all contributors willing to have this deducted from their contribution? Contributors must enter into some sort of agreement.

We still need a quote and a developer that is willing to begin work with a low up front payment. We could release a percentage of the funds upon seeing some solid visual evidence that the developer(s) are capable of completing this project. Then the rest upon completion.

I think this would be a good way to get the ball rolling...

The original company I was working with on getting this coded totally changed their pricing when I asked for a offical quote. What they said they could do in 30-45 days now they said will take 2-3 months, and their monthly rate also went up. So this would end up being 3 times as much as I originally stated, so we won't be dealing with them.

So I'm back to square one on this now. :cross-eyed:

I see that Trigunflame has offered to start coding this, and I think this is a good solution.

I think the more that we all keep stating that we will donate ?/$200 or more then surely the coder is going to hang back and get the highest fee they can, we need a coder to state how much this will charge then divede that by the the number of end users, looks like the above company just got greedy, I'm all in for donating money but would like to see an end figure or at least an estimate

Ok, Texas Holdem is what I am loooking for as a plug in for my site. Any progress on making this happen.

I am in for $200.

Since we are financing this, why don't we sell it instead of giving it away. We are paying a coder to code it. Set up a site and sell it. Make our money back.

Remember money talks, BS walks. I got my $200 cash in hand.

Guess this is a dead issue. Sigh

This was ask when vB 3.0.0 was out and maybe before. I have only seen con jobs when people try to get this off the ground.

I hope nobody gets burn here.

If someone can get it to work so people on my site could play...that would be pimp. I would be willing to major green down if more than one person wants to get in.

I would be against posting the hack on vB unless the coder wants to create the software and license it for $XX amount.

Interested!
Is there no coder on this site willing to code it?

[10ofhearts]

Is this still a live issue?

If it is and there is an option for a real money table then I'm well in 3 -500 wouldn't be a problem, would chip in if there wasn't but my members would still vanish of to real money tables to less interested then.

Given that the software exists elsewhere, and there are some really great coders on here wouldn't it make sense to adopt the approach of semi-commerciality being touted, with the product being sold on at a later date, possibly with a reduction in facility, say a non cash element points only kind of thing?

Just a thought.

Hope it is still an option though.

[shadow smith]

I am interested.

[kurtbarker]

i'd be interested... but as stated, don't everyone say $200 then the coder will think, how much can I get. we need a quote, and then we need it split, then say it'll be availble to 'these' regististed people for $xxx each

Any chance this could be integrated with the arcade as a 'feature game' up the top of the others?

Oh man, anyone who is interrested in a full mod/plugin/hack pm me with I'm interrested and the value he/she would like to spend on it in the subject (so I don't have to read the PM)

Example subject: I'm interested, texas hold'm, $500

I want to see how much money can be collected with this so I can go and talk with coders.
