You're trying to explain to nontechies, so I'd ditch the code fragments entirely for psudeocode or solely the plain english version.

This is always absolutely awesome. I chipped in over average this year but I'm dismayed by the people throwing in less than a buck, you're just making the developers pay the CC companies!

Folks should try out the revamp that Ian and Brenda came up with (veteran game designers). The docs are low-rez, but the play is interesting. http://www.studio360.org/2011/may/20/monopoly-redesigned/

You can't have it both ways. Upfront price means the per hour is purposely inflated to deal with the changes the client is going to demand, or an argument about what is and isn't covered by the initial agreement. This happened weekly at my
