Heh, thanks.

I have occasionally kicked around the idea of taking up a collection, not for EPU's fictional stuff (because that's always been free and I'd feel wrong suddenly charging for it, even on a volunteer basis; and because of the nightmarish IP ramifications, which we've already discussed on these boards a number of times), but because the basis of Gun of the Week can be kinda expensive. I haven't done it because, let's face it, I'd be collecting anyway, and the feature is so irregular/arbitrary/low-rent that I wouldn't really feel good about asking for money for it, either.

That said, I might yet consider something like it for an item I would probably not otherwise acquire, like for instance one of these. Just set up a little crowdfunding deal, let it run for a while, and see what happens. Maybe set an informal cutoff on it so that in like six months, if it hasn't reached the Reising level, we take whatever is in it and look around on Gun eBay for something else that's cool and weird.

I dunno, it's just a thought I'm kicking around. What do you guys think? Would that be tacky? Bridge too far? Over the shark?
