I've searched for Aleph One, but it's not there. Does anyone think it's a good idea to register an account for the MOS team and link Aleph One (and Infinity) there?

I remember seeing EMR being up there ages ago so that's probably still there. It would probably be a good idea to get some other scenarios on there.

When it comes to EMR, Bill was nothing if not a prolific marketing agent.

I bought a MacWorld mag once and it had A1 in it. But the people were stupid and they didn't put a scenario in, so it didn't work.

And I wouldn't rediscover Marathon for another five years...

You can play marathon by Braille?

rofl, that's funny.

Can we not get off topic and get an A1 developer to read this?

I'm guessing a developer has seen this and chose to ignore it.

Knock yourself out, just try not to embarrass us.

Hey! It's for a good cause, and at least tell me what's so bad about it.

Dude, allow me to reiterate what Treellama said, as you clearly didn't get it the first time.

Treellama just gave you the go ahead to do it yourself, if you so desire. Just don't embarrass the community. And I must say, your off to a wonderful start.

A good first step would be to properly identify which one of us is the sole dev of the whole project...but what do I know...

How am I off to a "good start"?

I was hoping one of the A1 developers could do it, since it involves putting down a name for credit to be given to.

Treellama seems like a good candidate, since he's one of the most active and the most dedicated.

Anyway, if I'm going to submit anything for you guys, I need a list of hardware requirements. Obviously, it's a universal binary, but that's all I know. The download link apparently also needs to be a zip file, I need a 128x128 icon in PNG or TIFF format, and there's no easy way to warn users that you need a scenario to play.
