my idea

as for PR/Marketing since I have the feeling that 0 is being done by the FF team.

I had the following idea.

With the help of the community create a list of all PC gamer magazines/websites per country with their email addresses included.
Just walk into your local magazine store and write down the names...and search the net for their email address.

[country]
name - site - mail
name - site - mail
name - site - mail

Setup some standard letter in different languages in which the devs offer not only to introduce them to the game. But also offer some insight into the relationship with valve, community support and prolly most interesting the process of building a MOD like fortress forever. And maybe some history or a timeline. And also touch on the subject of FF vs TF2. (now that it's still hot).
If possible have them put it on their magazine CD/DVD.

Just sending them an email saying hey we created this mod you should really check it out. Just won't be enough.

yes my idea is still rough around the edges but maybe someone with more experience in this area can work from here.
