Oh damn! He can't dissapear!
*starts to search all the possible combinations for "trojanrpg"*
Phew... Try: http://www.trojanrpg.com/
I'm sorry, I should had checked the address before I posted it.
The funny thing is that the big top banner (when you enter to a mirror) says "http://trojan.cjb.net/"

Two things:
1. That wouldn't be fun for us, the guys who research the game to create TCs!
2. Tell that to BIS and you will know what they think about that...
I still remember Chris words in the BOS chat:
"Mapper will NEVER BE RELEASED"
And the excuse:
"Mapper can't be used to create a complete new game"
They react like if that was a sin. You say "Hi, my name is Mapper!" and they "NOOOOO, AAAHH, STOP, HAVE MERCY WITH US!!!"
Anyway... I completely agree with your thinking, Xotor, and I think that it's merely stupid to guard a secret that could help a lot people to learn, not only to program games, but to learn about a programming language, methods and ways of programming and bulding a complex system, etc.
