I'm sure you'd get more then you running the site.

If it gets bad enough, I say sabotage

Anyway in a more serious note, can't you somehow check to see if the revenue has been going down like the activity? I'd assume they're pretty directly correlated. If so, we could always just wait it out, working on a side-project, until the site is no longer profitable, and the owners will just want to sell the domain? Then we could just start really working on retooling Eyes on, maybe incorporating things from the side project?
