I can assure you, this is not spam at all, but an honest attempt to obtain
intrested players. Yes, I posted the message in several groups, all related
to gaming, to be sure many people gets a fair chance. If my message is taken
for spam, tell me what I could have written to make it sound more serious!

Because it is!

If what you felt missing was information, like title and such, I chose to
not give that out just yet, as we still havent registered a domain name for
it yet, and I would like to be able to register it without finding that
people knowing what the name will be has "stolen" the domain.

I can gladly reveal to people who think this is spam, that you can look at
my homepage on http://home.c2i.net/chrislas to find out about me, read about
my experience in the game-industry, and find out I am a gamer for real.

So please please please do not take my posting as spam, it surely isnt!
We will launch our Beta-testing in a very short time, and then I will be
able to prove it to you all!
But if you do not want to be added to the tester-list, that is fine, but we
are trying to start up a small company making free games here, so please do
not judge us too hard for being a bit naive and maybe not the best spekers
and smooth writers in this group. All companies have started somewhere, and
we have almost a finished product now without having received any funding
yet! So whatever happens, and whatever you think of us, I am still proud for
making a cool game!

- I am just trying to get the word out about a coming free game! Is that so
bad?
