[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8253631, member: 23751"] I don't really care what you do or what other people would do. The only reason I brought it up is because you were using it as a reason to justify your downtime income, and it's not really comparable for the reasons I mentioned. Competing with the other Churches and government hired clerics, sure. I'd have to figure out what sort of system that government used. Probably through a random roll. If a church didn't end up with an exclusive contract, then you could compete with them. On any given day I'd have to see how many people died, how many clerics were available to take care of the repose, whether they were followers of a given faith, etc. and then see if you got work. Why do you assume that you are the only cleric in the city? You aren't wrong about people dying. It's just not only going to be you attending to those that die. I wouldn't know. Ahh, your Strawarmy has finally showed up. I guess you ran ahead of it this time and had to post a bit before it caught up to you. I never said it wouldn't work, though. This is yet ANOTHER Strawman by you. Working differently from how you envisioned it is not shooting it down or saying that it wouldn't work. I didn't say businesses are run how the real world does it. I said making money is a goal of businesses. I also never mentioned marketing at all. I don't even know where you pulled that out of. Unless nobles live in the woods with bows and spears in hand, they aren't going to be hunting all that often and again, hunting injuries are pretty rare. The only one pulling the real world into this is you, and D&D just doesn't use real world infection rates. If it did, with all the cuts PCs get in combat, no party would live to see 3rd level. Nah. It's your obsession with something that ended pages ago. Let it go man. I couldn't even begin to guess why others missed it. You do know that there are multiple goals to things, right? If you don't have a goal of making money, then you've failed at everything you listed before you even began. Go back and re-read, I didn't say [U][B]THE[/B][/U] goal. I said [B][U]A[/U][/B] goal. You don't get to the goal you just mentioned without having a goal of making money as part of it. [/QUOTE]
