Hi all,
My name is Andy, I own and run an IT and Telecommuncations company, and have done for the last 10 years.
I also played EuroMir server from beta to close and loved it.
The guys have done an amazing job with CrystalMir, and I would like to see Mir back up and running to its former glory with as many people playing it as possible. So i have the below propersition for anyone who is interested. If this isnt for you I would much appreciate it if you could pass this on to people you may know who could be interested.
The Proposition
My company will provide the server(or servers as required), the software and the connection 100% free of charge for ever, unless everyhting goes to plan(*read on).
I say forever and mean it, becuase i want a server I know is never going to go off line and myself and others lose all their hard work. To answer how we can do that: we are a large enough company that this wont impact on us. We have a lot of servers running various services. This puts us in a prime position to be able to do this. The reason why is simply I love the orignal euro mir and have the passion to do this.
I will give the game a marketing budget to get more people in. Facebook, twitter, banners and other online mediums will be used.
The Long Term Plan
If we get enough people on the server and it goes well then we will start charging a monthly fee to play. Something low but enough for poeple to care about their account. A third of everything we take will go to the crystalMir developers, how the logistics on that would work i dont know, but i will talk with the site admins. The point is those who have taken the time to make CrystalMir should benefit from it.
Who am I looking for to help with this?
Passionate people. People who care about Mir and who know the CrystalMir set up or are willing to learn. Poeple who can do stuff like drop files, changing NPC dialouge to suit our server and everyhting else needed. These people will go on to become the games GM's if they want to as well as continue tweaking of the game.
A bit later on we will then look at getting a programmer in.
If the server does well then these people will also get part of the money. BUT initially like me, it is a labour of love.
If we dont get the people in and we are never in a position to start charging then the end result is a stable mir server where no one has to ever worry about running costs and in turn will never go off line.
The game server is up and running already, but not had anyhting done to it really and im likely to reinstall as i was messing around to get my head around it.
If you are interested in this then post here any questions you have. Once we have at team of poeple organised I will give you all my credentials so you know we can provide all of the above.
This could be something really awesome and its no lose for everyone.
Come and be part of something amazing.
I'm looking forward to working with you.
