In Response To: Re: Random Marathon pic #59 (Document)

: It'll be nice if someone someday uploads a standalone version of it, now that M1A1 is obsolete. Or a version bundled with M1A1's other extras.

The unusual wording on M1A1's license has kept repackagers away:

Aleph One's GNU Public License doesn't apply to this scenario. All media used on this project is property of Bungie Studios and any modification and/or commercial distribution of it is strictly prohibited without the proper permission of Bungie Studios. You may use Bungie's copyrighted media for your private use only. Under no circumstances any member of the M1A1 project will be responsible for the misuse of the aforementioned media as they don't held any ownership over it. Any permission, written or verbally, granted by any members of the M1A1 project for modification and/or commercial distribution of any part of this scenario is illegal.

Copyright 1997 in whole or in part Bungie Software Products Corporation. Created with Bungie's Forge and/or Anvil by the M1A1 team, m1a1@bungie.org

I don't know if REB actually got Bungie's (and the other creators') permission to transfer ownership of everything, including the parts Bungie didn't create, but it's a murky area to wade through for what you'd get: a not-fun-to-play implementation of an old hoax, an awkward way to read the Marathon comic, and a Marathon alpha level which is easy to remake from scratch.
