Fundraising Poll-

I think a Kickstarter style thing would be the way to go. I'm sure I've seen previously established series go on there to fund new seasons!

Thoughts on that?

The recorded lines are an option as well. I prefer to not have to task out the actors for something like that, but if a few volunteer that might be ok.

Unless its personalized couldn't you pull favorite quotes as sound bytes for ring tones? Maybe 3-4 per character... Or 5-6 per season... Just throwing out an idea so you don't have to ask the actors if they'd volenteer to make a few. I completely understand if it isn't workable.

Hi there,

how about doing several small things.
- The Kickstarter and/or Indiegogo - thing with perks including small packages like ring-tones based on cool quotes from the show (you better start running) or shirts with quotes or even autographs on them?
- a variety of ringtone-packages made available, but not the same like the ones on the Kickstarter (!)
- an auction for the chapter 48-event-tickets

Best wishes!
Liam

I'd just like to be able to buy one of the zombie coming out of the ground or the tower rules t-shirts that sold out a long time ago. The black and white one looks to tuxedo-ish. Someone also mentioned before, about a year ago maybe, the idea of letting people pay for an early release of the podcast. That's the best I got for now.

Perhaps you could take a page from Osiris, and have a few of the characters tell their background story, and have them be for purchase only.

Bonus for pay side material would be great but i think a lot of issues come up with production, timing, availability, and money that would make it difficult to make. Then i think it would hold up production of the 4th season. But i'd love and have no problem with putting money to side story material. I think it's a fantastic idea that would be such a great addition for a huge fan if its doable.

I'm gonna say that this sounds like a pretty good idea. Maybe a one-off. Sell it for a buck or two. Hope that 20k fans buy it. Maybe at the end of each episode, play a fund raising commercial or fan reviews teasing about what listeners are missing.
