I say one of us trains to become a professional boxer. Then when it's your !@#$%^&*le fight on pay-per-view you can have the continuum logo inked on your back

along with appropriate links to download. It worked for GOLDENPALACE.COM!!!!!

How about get "Continuum" tatoo'd on your penis... Then streak at the FA Cup Final / Superbowl if you're american...

 

The tatoo could vary based on length...

For example I could have "Download Subspace Today : www.getcontinuum.com"

And someone like X`Terrania could just have the logo, or the letters SS...

simplest and most effective way of getting subspace known again through a generation that might play it is via facebook and myspace.

 

those are the mediums that people who are online a lot these days come online through, start facebook and myspace groups, share amongst your friends,

 

if everyone here on SSForum joined up on facebook and created a group and all added their friends, it'd grow to at least 10,000+, if they added their friends, etc etc

 

simple idea, but effective, and wouldn't take that much effort for those of you that arent on all that jazz :-)

 

for anyone who's interested, this is the link to the facebook group I've started :

Except of course, they are several SS facebook group already.

 

The oldest and most popular being "I play a 2d space ship game" with 150 members...

Today's progress, my club site is up! Just a modified blog on blogger, still need to put a lot of things on it, so not giving the link yet...

 

I also convinced my friend to make an Autorun for my promo cds so that is loads up a page I've made explaining SS + my club... before they click the button on the page the will load the standard Cont Installer...

sounds like you're doing good work

 

and you're right, I never actually !@#$%^&*umed there'd be other groups but on looking there are quite prosperous ones

 

Interesting, then again the more groups the more chances that it'll capture newer audiences

 

Another point of interest, if anyone actually has the time, is to have a much easier "Getting Started" guide, like your quick 5 page guide to being a pro and taking you from downloading to the end of your first flagging game, inbetween choosing ships, setting options, different chat commands, etc, all in plain english, so that everyone and anyone can at least have a fair hand at attempting to play it

 

so far the getting started guides I've seen either don't go far enough into the explanation or are slightly disjointed, anyway thats just my 2cents.

The best thing for new players would be having a tutorial zone. Call it TUTORIAL ZONE or something super creative like that, and have it on the default zone list. A fun to play tutorial gauntlet could be made covering all the basics and more advanced stuff. Lots of colorful lvz and AI bots too! And at the end of the lesson have a banner for each zone with a short description.

I really like that idea :-)

That wouldn't work because we all know SS'ers are nerds and get no action. Except maybe RedWaller.. He could probably advertise about 25 times a day.

Mission wasn't entirely successful. (Hence I have been hiding!). But more lack of planning on my part.., standing and handing doesn't really work, and I got to booked a table/stall that usually set up near the uni's main hangout for clubs to use...

 

Give me "legitimacy" as well,...like I've a reason to be there and ain't so dodgy as a random handing stuff. (Fortunately, I guess? I haven't "wasted" the CDs - still got most of it on me to try this out.. better than just dumping it I believe!).

 

Subspace works on Linux through WINE I heard, yes? Though that's quite difficult solution. I don't know really... I guess most mac/luniux player are already used to being excluded :S
