Charity stream-a-thon

Recommended Posts

The TDM community has been a long running one, boasting an amount of players and content creators that is remarkably exceptional for a game in the Stealth genre, and even more so if one considers it to be a subcommunity arising from TTLG/old Thief community. Yet for all of these years I have a sense there is still potential to build a lot more interest and engagement for such an awesome (and free) game.

 

Recently I've been closely following the amazing community effort being put in place by the OpenRA team to revive classic Command & Conquer. Aside from reconstructing the engine for and optimizing the games for modern online play, OpenRA has been creating seasonal leagues to boast its player base and garner more attention in the media. Similarly, other communities organize charity streams and speedrun events for a similar purpose, while contributing towards a good cause.

 

Given the TDM community has some pretty seasoned taffers going about, some of which that are actually regular youtubers who frequently do LPs of most missions, I feel organizing a charity stream would be an interesting low-investment community project that holds the promise for great returns.

 

Let me know what you guys think.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
