Urban Terror Code Stolen 264
New submitter herbalt writes "The code of the free FPS game Urban Terror (a standalone game based on a Quake 3 mod), has been stolen. The development team, Frozen Sand, at first stated their Git Repository had been hacked, but later issued an announcement stating the perpetrator of the leak was a member of the development team. Frozen Sand also states they have found chat logs indicating there had been 'a plot to get B1naryTh1ef to steal the code so they could sell Urban Terror under a different name on Steam.'"

even weirder is that B1naryTh1ef would be stealing the source code.
Poor choice of name (Score:5, Funny)
If you call yourself "B1naryTh1ef", and then steal the source, that just indicates a general sloppiness of character. Sheesh.

That's why he chose that name. Nobody would expect B1naryTh1ef of planning to steal source code.

Well, that was literate. Any attempt to match wits with such an individual would be foolhardy.

In that case, maybe he should have called himself TheSpan1sh1nqu1s1t1on...
