It refers to sales potential, yes. I haven't yet done a 50% net margin deal with a third party which hasn't made them some money and I don't want to. I've lost money myself on work for hire, but that's my risk - I'd feel bad if I published one guy's work and they made nothing. If I had to add the expense of writing on top of system design the chances that we'd both lose money would be very high.

No one has ever approached me to complete an unfinished game system, so I can't really answer your second question, but yes, we are reasonably efficient at sourcing artwork and laying work out, though we are very short of artists at the moment.

On your third question, the answer is yes. In the two cases we've been involved in assisting in playtesting, but have had no control over the final print ready file except our suggestions.

By all means email me simon@dyingearth.com if you want more details, or I'd be happy to talk on sykpe in UK work hours if that would help.
