Thanks,

1. This is the "Writing" forum, not the "Game Design" forum. I am moving this to the proper forum.
2. When you say "the right people," what do you mean? In other words, you assume we know what you want to do with your game design ideas -- but we don't. What is it you want to do with your ideas, and what kind of "right people" do you think you need?

By the right people I mean game developpers who take ideas for videogames, buy it and so on. I am sorry, I am kinda new to this.

I'm guessing that they won't. They already have game designers who probably more or less have all the ideas they need. They would probably want something more substantial like a prototype of the game with a design document, etc.

But do you know them? Can you tell me who they are and where I can find them? I believe they won't just ignore my idea. It's simply too amazing dude.

The right people do not exist.
Game companies will not pay money for your game ideas. In fact, they won't even take them for free.

If you want to see your game ideas developed, you basically have these options:

1. Have, or somehow acquire sufficient money to pay people to develop it for you.
2. Learn the skills you need to develop it yourself/with a small, hobbyist team.
3. Learn a relevant skill and get a job in the industry, and work towards getting a position where you can propose your game ideas.

I remember having "great gaming ideas" or "the greatest game" when I was younger but now that I think back on them.. they were terrible, equivalent to gluing together unrelated games into the ultimate worthless packages. Now that I'm a tool coder, as a hobby, I hear game ideas from 1000's of gamers (or other random people) and I have to tell you, their ideas are worse (I'm going to start tazing people who start with "MMO").

heres your chance

That requires a beginning of an actual implementation, which OP does not have.
