The French government takes possession of the game and tries to find a buyer for it. We pool our money and get it. Then we purge the staff, ending the oppression of the human race.

Yeah but as far as I know even companies that aren't publicly listed still need to make external reports for current and prospective investors. :{
The only way around it would be to have investors that don't have some 'stock' share in company. They would be stakeholders but wouldn't have any entitlement (except legal entitlement to the value of their investment based upon some contractual agreement). I think.

The fact that Cyberjoueurs is a 'company' and not a 'sole proprietorship' or a 'partnership' would mean that there is more than just Unix at the top, but like I said before, since we can't know the corporate structure we can't make any more inferences. :{

I've often wondered that myself...
I mean, so much of Graal rests on the hope that nothing bad ever happens. For years and years, if I vanished Graal woulda been in trouble...then we got all these PWs, now it's just like if Beorn vanishes, Kingdoms freezes and decays...but Stefan could get it going again, so it's not a problem. If any given Classic coder vanished, their assistants could get things going again (after the requisite two years of rewriting the system NPC to "make sense")...
but if Stefan dies, who else knows how to code Graal?
Did he really comment it all properly?
Would anyone be able to figure out what's causing such and such a bug and fix it, and release a fixed version?

Unixmad's place is a bit less specific but just as exclusive: say he has a heart attack allofasudden, I'm guessing he's willed it to his wife. What if she deigns to sell it off? What if it gets bought up by RagOnline or MaplStory and they decide to scrap it just to eliminate potential competition, put a redirector in its place? Not to open the "IT WOULD BE AWESOME IF NINTENDO BOUGHT GRAWL BC UNIX RUNS IT BAD AND BANNED ME 4 HAXING LOLZ!" debate again, but where's Graal gonna Really find a producer/webhost/etc. willing to take the kind of losses Unixmad has weathered, absorb the debt Graal's accrued, and still keep the bloody thing going?

It's somewhat apocolyptic. I hope that, in the event martians abduct France as a whole, they've made plans to take care of us.

*shrugs* It's less a specific statement of fact and more a general example of single-coder projects. Once upon a time Kyle0654 wrote a bank card for Classic and left. A year later the engine updated and the card broke. Despite the script's expert commenting, it still took me a week to figure out WHY it was supposed to work, then why it Wasn't working before I could fix it...

No matter how good the G2K2 team is, good luck adding something to the mudlib server code without Stefan...
