I'm seriously considering it if i don't get any other/better/different offers.
I'm just trying to think about Blackfoot's time and how valuable that potential is.

Also consider, a small house..unless it is in a prime location (next to a moongate or in front of a dungeon enterance) has a set value...roughly 45k. Which means you will be working rather hard to make a solid trade up, especially since housing space is not limited on this server and you can pretty much macro 45k in a day and place a small house without giving up Blackfoots time.
You need to be trading in the abstract, the things unattainable...not everyone can make Blackfoots time..actually only one person can make such a thing. Thinking about it, If I had blackfoots time I would demand that he ask Derrick to put him in Jail for one hour of actively played time. Where he is asked questions randomly, and unless he produces the answer within a minute his hour in jail starts over...

I like your Imagination. That kinda thinking is good and ideally what I'm wanting. But if there is something in-game that is valuable enough to be considered, that works too.

Well I am thinking it would be entertaining for the shard if chum gets it, that alone has to be worth something.

Yes, I'd be interested as well. And if he can come up with an imaginative or worthy offer to Blackfoot's time. This will be a great trade to follow-up on.

Actually I would not accept anything less then 2 and a half hours of chum's time...as his time is worth roughly half of Blackfoots and of course you do want a mark-up.

Now how can you say Blackfoot's time is the same thing as chum's time. I am sure if asked to teach you whatever they deem appropriate for an hour you would learn two incredibly different sets of skills. Most of chum's would probably end in an exciting boom.

Hmm. that offer, combined with my sheer curiosity of what you plan to do with his time... I think we might have a deal for that one.
If there are no other offers by later this afternoon (say 4pm eastern time?), I'll PM you about the trade.
