I was thinking about the save game option, is there anyway to make it so a game can be played by players who weren't originally in teh saved game?

To load one of those saved games, all players in the original game must be in the new one.

Unless you hexed the savegame file, and found a way to get your friend in it, then yea, I think it could work.

Maybe if you sent them the file and let them host it or something... I don't know.

I actually found a way around this 
. When you save the game everyone gets their copy of it... if you get them to send you their copies then you can distribute them to other people and load the game with those other people taking on their roles. It doesn't work if you just send everyone your save file because then it will think everyone is player 1 and they won't be able to join, though it would crash anyway if they could. Unless of course a recent patch changed this? I tested this a while back so its possible it changed.

That's really neat, so it runs from the already downloaded save file. I hope it wasn't patched, that's friggin awesome BW,
