But there is truth to it. Even negative publicity helps with success. I think publicity is the one thing Nexuiz really lacks...

2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

i heard the word "nexuiz" randomly in #linux-clan and thought i'd `eix nexuiz`
looked at it, and then I was like... "WTF!? how could I have missed that one!?"

yes I think nexuiz really lacks PR :>
we need to advertise!

i don't think we should advertise more. the servers would be constantly over-crowded.
they already are. some are crashing on a regular basis.

i think we should cease advertisement and take the website off-line or at least remove the download links.

Okay, that was obviously irony...

but for those who did not get it: if there are more people who know the game, there will be more servers too.

I think what he's trying to say is "what would happen if nexuiz was never open sourced?"

I took it to mean, "What if Nexuiz had been a commercial venture?" It wouldn't have to be closed source and, unless I'm confusing it with another game, it couldn't have been closed source, because the engine itself is open source.

As a commercial venture it would have sold, probably quite well. We'd have more servers, more players, faster release/patch cycle, and fat-cat devs racing CCRs through Europe snorting blow off the muscled abs of thousand dollar hookers. Good times.
