SO.... A lot of people have been asking you a few extremely valid questions that you don't seem willing to answer. But I guess that's your prerogative. I have a couple for you.
1. Did you do any market research to even find out if gamers would be willing to pay you $105 for a gaming session?
2. Are you making custom battle-maps in Dundjinni or doing anything to make your games better than a typical F2F home game?
3. Are you still planning on the puppet show, mask, or singing thing? [I'll be totally honest with you, if you started doing this during a game I was playing in, I'd laugh for a sec, then get ticked off and then ask for my money back.... ALL of it.]
4. What happens if the players in the group end up not getting along with each other?
5. What is it about YOUR game and style itself that will convice people to pay you to play? You haven't really answered this in any concrete way.
6. When do you plan on starting and how many games do you (honestly) think you will get in your first month?
7. Have you thought about getting at least ONE paying group first before doing all this website building, card-making, multiple game style pricing stuff? You should walk before you run. You will be very disappointed if you spend 200 hours prepping for this business and you find out you only get one paying group every 2 weeks.
8. How do you plan on generating repeat business? Will you run mini-campaigns? Stay with LFR games?
9. What about people that can easily sign up for a LFR game for free. There must be TONS of games going on in the NYC area. Heck there's a few weekly LFR games here in little ol' Cary/Apex. And they are free.
Just some questions to mull over, I'm curious to know your thoughts.
