Do you know talented C++ dev?

Does anyone have metrics for our conversion rates?
Also If I made Allegiance tutorial videos, could we put them up IN the actual game?
I've been a voob for years now and I have full confidence I can at least get people up to my level minus the medium level dog-fighting skills which just take practice.
I feel like I could get people up to speed very quickly within 1 video covering the BARE MINIMUM people would need to know about the game to know whats going on and enjoy playing.
When a newbie hits that tutorial button and sees that he's gonna have to do like 10 tutorials the fun gets sucked right out.
I think it would be cool to have a skip-able intro to allegiance video when you first run the game. How hard would it be to get that to play in place of the allegiance logo in the actual game?
Also if we wanted to make a kick-ass look at how baddass allegiance is
this is the guy I would go to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaJWzJfoXlE

Ok here is how I feel about all this.
It's undeniable that Imago crafted a much better version of Allegiance than we have, (if you checked it out you'd know what I mean).
I already stated many times that bringing his improvements over here, would be amazing.
Fuzz is right, imago's code can be used by anyone; I can't implement it, if i knew how to code I would have already done it.
I sent imago's source code to pkk many months ago with this simple request:" Use it and see what you can do to improve our version". (the code is shared source, so we can use it).
PKK never replied to my pms.
As to why, I think you know.
There's never been love between imago and pkk, or even harmony between the dev team after Bard was in charge.
Our R8 doesn't bring much to the table; (and this is coming from it's main proponent).
The main difference between our's and imago's version (not counting the tons of things he added), is that they do not use ACSS (Why, btw)?
Dome, hiring a c++ dev may not be our best option, and yes, imago is the only one with serious knowledge of Allegiance's code.
No one here however, is willing to abandon FAO, this is where we play.
I think the dev team wars have to end.
They are reason of so many development stalls in our history.
Pook's withholding of ASGS's code created useless walls to those who wanted to enhance Allegiance.
YP's reverse engineering ASGS caused pointless drama.
Imago using a hacked version of allegiance exe. caused drama.
This bullisht soap opera plot has to end.
Why can't we work as a team?!
Pkk, Imago are you willing to work as one?
Cash, development is needed to a certain degree.
New features generate interest, even old features do.
More interest= higher turnout.
I can already picture a mass email going out, announcing the full revival of the original AZ.
^ This is just one example.
But I digress.

Why would offering money for any dev to finish R8 be considered insulting. It's gratitude! It's for appreciation of a skill most do not posses. Take the money and fix allegiance so we can market it. 
We will be forever in your debt, but not really. Allegiance development has been the biggest drag on allegiance for a long time because only so few know how to do anything and everyone hits considerable road blocks. We need to overcome these road blocks and I know it takes time. Offering money as an added perk or incentive is the least I can do along with gratitude for helping Allegiance overcome a huge obstacle. Yadda yadda. Regardless I'm going to market the game. Finish R8 and we goooooo
Also we need someone to run an email campaign..

That is the most comprehensive statement I've heard from you yet. I thought you were oblivious to the real situation but now I see that you are right on target.

We have yet to hear from PKK. This is a discussion that he should become involved in. We need solid reasoning as to why he is against implementing Imago's changes, and it should be a public statement for a public discussion.
I firmly believe that if we all tell Cashto to go $#@! himself enough, and we use the power of magic and fairy dust, he will come.
