How would YOU release Black Mesa?

Black Mesa Archive The Cafeteria
#1

Change the “Black Mesa is some hot shit” thing on the page? Add a trailer? Just tell the forum members and see what the hell happens?

Realistic or ridiculous, how would YOU announce the release of this baby?

#2

In a cloud of sperm.

#3

I would set a nondiscript link in the downloads page and not tell a soul.

#4

I’d host it on god-awful rapidshare and post on the forums: “Hai guys…released!”

#5

Split the entire mod into 1kb files, upload them to a server where you need to enter an captcha to download each file, then force ‘about 7’ wait between downloads.

#6

:fffuuu:

#7

Uh oh.

#8

On time :awesome:

#9

Via a secret invisible link, that you can only click by accident, then see how long it takes for the forum members to find out, and spread the word. Maybe make a few bets on the amount of time it takes.

Maybe 2 weeks?

#10

I would register as a cockroach and tell everybody in broken English + trolltounge that I have a 1337-ub3r-secret link to Black Mesa and that I’ll post it on the forums if over 9000 people ask me to

EDIT: Over 9000 penises. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slDAPms8Tvs

#11

Simply add a download link to one of the FAQ questions, then see how long it takes people to notice.

#12

I’d have Hubi make a new page for the website for the official release, and then release it about the 7th month into the year.

#13

Slashdot.

#14

In a cloud of smoke from BURNING IT!!

#15

Bit Torrent… What else?

#16

I would attach it a Google Wave, then invite everyone to it.

#17

I would distribute it by mail to the forum members. As punch-cards.

#18

Bwahaahaaahahahahahahahahaha… oh man, oh man, I love you

#19

Hey, they allow you to attach files to waves, and there is no size limit. It would just take 2 days to upload.
If that fails then just stick it into a Google Code project.

#20

I would Release it in two parts with the readme instructions written in Latin translated from Chinese through Babelfish.
