Experimental RTS/Space sim Collaborative Coding Project.
The goal is to design a game with structure/settings/balance of Starcraft and scale of Eve Online(i.e. huge space battles, space empires,etc).
Though this wouldn't stop anyone from contributing code/feedback/criticism, i'll be coordinating the project.
All code/ideas should be posted in this and subsequent threads which i'll start as needed.
step #1: We will collaboratively create a name for our project.
Each suggestion must explain why this name fits the project and why its better then any other generic name.

Every piece of software has a runtime. A runtime is simply the sum of facilities offered by linked libraries and the VM it is run on(I'll include the operating system as a subset of the VM)

FV is simply equating light weight runtimes (such as those required by C/C++) with compiled, and heavy weight runtimes (such as those required by Java/C-octothorpe/Dynamic languages) with the actual word runtime/VM. FV is simply an idiot who's content with redefining common CS terms. How does this require several dozen posts to argue?
