There are
Please note, while some of these ideas are theoretically possible, I do not endorse the behaviour. Most of the ideas are illegal and immoral, no one should consider trying them (they are just fantasy).


Torrents


Olaf disables serial validation



Torrents:
It was done last year, where were you? You guys never noticed ALOT of players from (another game mentioned in this topic)? Oh well I guess a secret is better with less people involved. :v PM me sometime, I might tell ya.



We're talking about a torrent which means they could join and browse servers as you do in XWIS now, only connected to a clone.
Releasing a torrent that connects to XWIS is pointless, as you need a valid serial to join (not just One that can get the game installed, but an actual valid serial).

Olaf disables serial validation:
Like having serials matter in this day and age? Even Southpark's Timmy! can change his serial in the time it takes to /run.



Serials do matter if you wish to join XWIS. While Timmy might be able to change his serial, it's irrelevant unless that serial is valid.

As for the WOL/XWIS part. You better consider this obsolete, since most people nowadays use direct-connect applications like Renegade Ressurrection, RenIP, GameSpy etc...
As far as I know, these methods do not check for legit serials, which in theory, would allow a player to join a server WITHOUT a serial key.


I'm not sure whether your claim of "most people use direct connect these days" is actually true or not. I am curious how you got that statistic. In any case, that statistic is irrelevant...
A torrent of the game connecting players to a clone would render direct connect rather redundant, as the need to by-pass serial validation would not be there.
You need to make it as easy as possible for new players.

step 1. click Install.exe
step 2. Run keygen.exe when prompted for your serial
step 3. Copy/paste the serial
step 4. Launch the game and browse which server you want to join through the advanced game listings screen
