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.

i've found out GHC uses a runtime system:
anything programmed with haskell, like test.exe(compiles to ~700kb for hello word)
will give the options of the runtime when run with "test.exe +RTS -o", thus exposing the runtime.
Haskell is now disqualified.
