Anyone Want to Buy CC?

Postby Funkyterrance on Mon Oct 01, 2012 1:54 pm

In the recent discussions about CC declining and the conclusions drawn as a result I was wondering if there wasn't some fat cat player out there who cares enough about CC to give lack an "offer he can't refuse" and take up the reigns, so to speak. I am sure none of the mods are particularly loyal to their absentee leader and would gladly pick up where they left off.
So come on out, Mr. Fat Cat, don't be shy... 8-[

I'm sure someone on here know and will post soon...
I think I remember someone saying the site grosses 25k a year? So does 1k premium members sound reasonable? I really don't have any idea, just throwing something out so someone else corrects me with the accurate info.
Seems like it may not even be that bad of an investment, depending on how much faith you have in its recovery with a little TLC.

I am never ashamed to make the old lowball move but 5k seems a little low considering. :)

15k seems more reasonable, its worth a shot.

I'm staying around just to see how this circus ends :). My prediction is that cc will either be sold or put down within 11 months from now.
I'm leaning towards it being put down though.

You are insinuating that:

a) I want the site to survive.
and
b) I'm willing to pay for that to happen.
and
c) I trust you to not just take the money for yourself.

Oh......were you just kidding? I sometimes miss those kind of things. What do you call them...jokes? Being an alien in disguise is not always easy you know.




*Dammit!*











As you can see I'm just saying what first pops into my head. I don't think these are good jokes either.










Or do I? ...............

I actually attempted to contact lackattack about purchasing CC. It's been a while...maybe three months or so ago since I contacted AndyDufresne initially (since lackattack won't allow anyone to PM him directly), to which Andy told me how to try to contact lackattack. No response, which I've taken as no interest.

Very mysterious. Is anyone really that apathetic? Maybe lack has been kidnapped by some evil arch-enemy whose sole delight is to watch CC die a slow death.

Or perhaps he's satisfied with the income this site generates?

Does anyone have any hard data on the number of premium subscriptions?

Have these been declining?
Because if all we are loosing are mostly fremiums, then perhaps it puts the "Great C.C. Decline into perspective?


I'd have to see the books of course, but my first offer would be 150k just for the potential it offers.

CC could save alot of money per year if they would stop buying random numbers,

who needs random numbers.
