OverUnity prize money 15825 US$ total until now

well if i have no money and i post it( Everything, design, workins ect.) , then say someone does build one and it works before i am even able to build it, so if someone on the boards did build it and said it worked and you still havent been sent one yet then what, i still have to build it , cause I have very limited resources, sorry. but if someone did or maybe a couple built it and proved it worked then would i get the prize or would me and the others who would have proved it split the prize and the fame or whatever else or just the prize money.

Humbugger,
you are absolutely right.
I have to fix the rules in a PDF document, so everybody knows the rules
and can accept them or not.
So everybody can make up his mind if he will donate some money
or on the other side, if an inventor will apply for it or will
market his invention elsewhere...

Please give me 1 or 2 days time.
I had to do too much programming work during the last days, so
I did not have time to rethink it all in every detail.

Regards, Stefan.

Nemesiswes,
very good point !
But without at least one prototype you will never know, if it really works...
I guess you as the inventor should get the fame for having had the idea.

So maybe we can change the rules a bit, that if only one prototype is available,
you will first publish your idea fully, then ship the one prototype to me
and the first 2 builders, who will replicate the unit and will post
full video documentation and will also ship the units to the 2 other
parties ( gn0sis.com and freeenergynews.com)
will get each a share of 1/5 the prize money,
so you as the inventor will get a 3/5 share and each of the first 2
builders will get a 1/5 share of the prize money.
How about this ?
So please only apply and publish it , until you have a first
prototype fully working and are able to publish and ship it.

Regards, Stefan.

Please, Stefan,

Take as much time as you need, of course!  Do not think I am trying to pressure you in any way.  Any contribution of funds I make will be there today or next year...I just want to make sure it never has to be withdrawn or given out undeservedly because we didn't lock in a solid set of rules.  There is no big rush here!

It is not an easy task what you are trying to accomplish and manage.  Maybe sometimes it seems like some of us (especially snotty skeptics like me) don't appreciate your hard work and sometimes impossible tasks, but I do.

Personally, I could never pull it off, myself, what you do here.  To be so encouraging and so diplomatic regarding every proposed idea...whew!   To balance the open promotion of any and all ideas with a hard scientific approach would seem to me to be completely frustrating if not totally impossible.  But you seem to do it most of the time.
