  1. Ah, I enjoyed this zone. (y)
  2. Perhaps I am missing something here; but if it's in Greenlight (and seems to be doing well...) and of course actually gets Greenlit surely it would mean somebody would need to have even a fraction of control over the source. Also, aren't there legal concerns? Edit: Just realised Dr Brain said the same thing in the other thread that is exactly the same as this thread. =/
  3. Corrected. Sorry to be negative, but making another YouTube video won't help as the game is just dying due to lack of development. Contributing however possible to other projects that have already been started will. Personally, I feel this is the most promising one. You can play it here. Snrrrubs server is closed source, however I started development of an open source server for it a while ago in Node.js however I'm a little busy right now; will likely carry on in a few weeks when work demand reduces.
  4. Speak with PoLiX the process can take some time. There isn't much demand anymore.
  5. People will just make better zones.
  6. I've only once seen an unfair net ban, which was lifted near instantly.
  7. Most people don't get net banned. Therefore, for most, it's not something that needs to be displayed.
  8. My main question is, are you going to be selling the Phoenix client? If so, then you can expect a 30% fee for using a service that is provided to you to gain more exposure to your `customers' which is of a high standard, which has millions of users. If you're not intending to charge for Phoenix, then they can't take a 30% cut of nothing, and you will just need to pay whatever the membership / developer / license fees are (last I checked, around 100USD?) which compared to the benefits of more exposure, is a relatively small price. However, both Apple and Windows don't "demand" that you have your software in their stores; you're free to distribute using your own channels however you will not get the benefits of their distribution centres (trusted signing, updates, reviews, exposure and so on). As for the software not appearing in the Metro UI unless you pay... I have doubts. Mainly, because it's a Wired link and Wired reporters are generally not the brightest crayons in the pack, but secondly because I can see this getting cracked / hacked / modified beyond belief, and as Dr. Brain said; because this kind of behaviour seems like corporate suicide for Microsoft. I can expect it from Apple; they're targeting a different corner of the market, but not Microsoft. However, I'm now exclusively Linux (although I am thinking of ordering one of the new Retina MBPs) so it's not too big a deal in my eyes. If they do implement this, and Linux gets some damn needed updates I'll be a happier guy. ;-P Good luck!
  9. I use Linux. (I couldn't see the poll?)
  10. Good job.
  11. ... This whole thread ...
  12. What are the problems you're getting?
