We could do this.

Honestly, we barely understand huge pieces of this game as it is, do we really need to bring in outsiders?

Think about training, as well as the legal grey area that these projects are in. Any professional coder would probably shy away from doing this for pay, and wouldn't bother to do it for free unless they had a personal investment like Morph, for instance.

That's not even mentioning the money aspect. Someone would have to be the "financial officer" and be in charge of the money. So let's say we start throwing money at this. What happens if a few people decide that the results aren't good enough for them and freak out and threaten x y and z. There's always at least one.

Money complicates things like this so much, I hate to make an already muddy process even harder to navigate.


Also, I have a kid, so my financial responsibilities lie outside of paying to get a dead game back.

I don't think I'd ever pay for an approximation of MxO. Since it will never be what it once was, I can't see giving money to restore it to "near completion."


The other thing that really bothers me is that once money is involved cliques form. Suddenly, people are in charge, and there's not necessarily a fair say in who those people are. But that's just me, and I admit that I'm already prejudiced against any form of monetary involvement in these projects, so take my words with a grain of salt.
