Very nice idea Danny! If managed properly this could get very motivational and a real boost in confidence for some of our more 'junior' members.
Although I don't fancy to take part in the challenge I'll be more than happy to assist you and Roger in managing the office ...

Oh and I don't need a car ... I already have a bike ;)

Harold, I was really hoping you'd sit on the Board Of Directors. Welcome aboard.  :) Now, we would need a total 10 participants (employees) who are ready to join up. Remember, it's all at a slow pace, you pick up "Jobs" whenever you have time, you post the results whenever you can. Don't forget as well there will be plenty of jobs outside the realm of photoshop or requiring any graphic arts skills. For example: The U.S. military called and they're looking for three aircraft to represent them on a recruiting pamphlet they're making. They've asked us to find screenshots of the three most appropriate and technologically advanced aircraft, to include on their pamphlet. This job pays $8k.
 The speed of the sim is dictated only by how fast everyone wants to reach the million dollar mark. I'll put out the applications for employment in a few days if the positive responses here continue to come in.

Sorry, Clipper!

I would love to climb the corporate ladder with what you've proposed, but right now I'm trying to get my foot into the door of any company/organization who isn't afraid to take in someone with an advanced degree. I've got a great lead right now with Texas A&M University in College Station and am waiting to hear back from them soon.

Good luck with your project.
