yea it can add up very fast..but what about in the case some people do get on every list..with only 10 any others on the initial list would always wait, along with anyone else who wants in it...may not happen, but if it does, then is that just the breaks?
Its a good point ~ we could limit the initial number of choices ~ whats a decent/fair limit? Say sign up for no more than 5 choices
, after that, its first paid is next on the list?

I think it should be 15 per frag. With 20 bucks each that'd be 300 bucks for one frag. That could give us a good 5 polyp frag of a 50 buck per polyp frag and 50 for overnight shippin?
The more polyps the faster they should grow.
Whatever we go with. Lets get it set up by 2morrow!!!

But if everyone paypals COWFISH, eveyone is going to be paying the however much surcharge paypal takes from each transaction- why wouldn't we just send it all to Erick so the money doesn't go through two transactions?

After 2 hours and twelve minutes, no joke, I kept track; photobucket would not upload this picture.. I then found out, I wasn't the only one having problems.. ..... ...

This is to MY understanding of what we are trying to do here:
Correct me if I am wrong!

I agree the money should all go to ReefKPR but be coordinated through the front man who ever that will be. One transaction one paypal cost.
Looks good so far...IMO

lol, nice picture josh
if you allow everyone to buy two of each frag you're going to prolong your wait....i think a good number per frag would be 20....2-3polyps per person for a frag would still take a while...and of course its all dependant on the growth rate, but i think thatd get everyone a great frag and still allow plenty of people to be on.....
and as far as how many people on a list, i mean what are we thinking anyways....get an entire list of people that want to join....get 10-20 different color morphs and have a type of sign up sheet where people can choose up to 10 of those morphs that theyd like, putting them in rank of what theyd like 1-10...then go from there to get the lists(people on the main list would be first to get the zoos they ranked, and go down the main list, and with 10 choices per person i imagine everyone should at least be bale to have 5 they like and have room on the sub list.......then everyone at least can get on a list....if there are not enough people on one particular zoo that it can either be up to that person to pay a bigger part of the cost or to wait till more join? does that make sense? i think itd help everyone get to be involved right away, and help get more morhps going right away....of course all dependant on someone like reefk with enough room for more, or multiple growers.

OK, so I like the whole plan so far. Just one clarification...
What if one of the first 10 does not want to frag out the zoo going forward? I can see a scenario where they would want to keep growing it and not frag it.
Just a question that was generated because I fragged my first zoo last night and had some "issues"

Looking forward to whatever is chosen so I can send $$$!

i dont think anyone who receives a frag should HAVE to continue to frag until they choose themselves...itd be nice if some people would, but dont think it should be forced.
this kind of maps what i was thinking for getting people on lists, hopefully you can read the wording

then everyone can get 5 morphs hopefully and then everyone can continue to grow out and just trade for others or sell and buy others

Doesn't factor in additional expenses such as salt, time, etc.

Scopus....
You would need to salt the rest of your tank, wouldn't you? Not sure if that should be an expense..
Also, the time involved should be nothing more than feeding your tank as usual, lighting as usual. Only time concerns I see are fraggin and shipping the stuff

COWFISHRULES has agreed to organize/run the show. We now have a planner, unless anyone objects. Once we hear from Z, with additional suggested costs and his opinion on whether he wants to collect the money, or he wants COWFISH to, we are good to get started. I asked COWFISHRULES to start compliling a list of rare zoas to give us a starting point. I've received one additonal request to add to the list of names Greenreefer, which puts us at 24.
Three issues to hash out;
#1. Number of people per frag (10 or 15 seems to be the general question)
#2. How many polyps people want on the frag they recieve (2 vs. 3 are what I've received input on so far).
#3. Are we going to require that people continue fragging the frag they receive. If we don't, than the same frag may end up being done over and over again, since people most likely will simply opt out.
In my opinion they should be required to sell the frag for the price they got it on this site, if they grow it out and start fragging ~ that was the intention of this. Realize that some may not be set-up or choose to continue to frag. JMO

Hold on, we asked COWFISHRULES to organize/run this ~ so I asked him to put together a initial list which we can then add to. But, first we need to make sure everyone has had a chance to give their input on the three final issues listed above.
