Hi forum. How's life? I'm glad to hear everything is ok ;) Now...

O, Decision-Making-Ubuntuans,

I just visited 'Linux Game Tome', and found some really interesting new games, like Sauerbraten (a.k.a. Cube 2), or Nexuiz. There are others, check the site

Now, I wanted to suggest that Ubuntu supports people who develop free games, by adding their work to repositories, or in some other way (provide easy to find links to their sites, mention them in how-tos... anything).

They must have worked hard, and only out of their love for... Well, freedom :)

They deserve some support. If not for other resons, than for bringing Ubuntu closer to people (or, bringing humanity to others ;)).

Peace :)

an easy way for you to get this going would be to package them up and make the .deb files available to people, the more people using and liking it will probably give better chances of support for these games in the official repositories.
