A LITTLE BACKGROUND

Some aspects of this unique project, for reasons that will become clear, I have wished to use as building blocks purely because they are literally foundations that will preserve it's longevity. These are based around independence and no centrality, a bit like a virus that has it's own life.

Whilst this does form the nature of a business, in that it retains people , money, a strategy and as well as sales and marketing, ultimately this is a social enterprise without the pyramid structure of any usual company, ie a person at the top with senior management, middle management, and workers. I have sought a flat structure of equality and as such all player as are equal,participating only for the duration of their desire over three distinct seven week terms otherwise termed as levels; influence, motivation and leadership, ultimately moving to a final arena of inspiration.

The projects flat nature retains it's integrity with a purely virtual administrative centre that can be located anywhere on the globe and a global Market.

A recent conversation relating to players in the Philippines and potential access relating to limited  finances at £100 entry, drew me to  one of the beauties of the Internet and social marketing, as it allows anybody to act as an introducer, with a world wide market open to find a player and a commission of £35 for each player, in effect making the game self funding. A larger commission of £50 for the course also gives a reasonable additional prospect for an income to get started for anyone regardless of their financial circumstances. One of the fundamentals was the facility that the game should be open to anyone, anywhere with a financial route to enter should they wish, the only requirement being access to a computer.

As you may appreciate this idea has been in my mind for a while. It's not rocket science but keeping the whole thing portable, global and rewarding in a simple fashion was.  The forerunner of this was a project I called My Epitaph that I produced as a complete project to answer a challenge at a dinner table on how one person could develop a method in theory to change the worlds financial balance. The project was based on the facility to write a meaningful last few words  in the form  of pros or a poem and have them published in an ever increasing hard copy work. An epitaph is the final words you might have on a tombstone... Funny, sad, motivational it doesn't matter, it's the thought that counted. I wrote the first few to get the whole thing started and ended up writing 600 over a couple of days...yes I probably need to get out more but what the hell. 

The project was floored as many people didn't know what an epitaph was and others didn't want tempt death by writing one...I don't know what that stands me in for. Also the method of marketing was controversial especially in the UK but some of the work is available  on line at www.myepitaph.me

As a project it had legs as well as some ideals about change, but I really wanted to develop something new, a simple structure that would be fun for anyone.

To get the ball rolling the first six weeks of the course are now free and will be updated in line with playing the game, so please feel free to introduce people to the course and be sure to get them to mention your name as the introducer should they wish to play or continue with the full course.
