That's just it....it's not gonna happen.

In the world of big business, nothing's for free. Everything has a price. Therefore, unless TMy smoothes out a deal with Marvel, promising Marvel quite a bit of time to continue running the site (most likely $12 per month for each person that plays it, which will run up profits of a few thousand bucks a month, if not more), the site will never come back up. And that's assuming that Marvel will just forgive TMy for the copyright infringement laws that he broke...they already appear to be on some sour terms (TMy COULD be forced to pay Marvel up to around $300,000 in damages in a class-action lawsuit), so I doubt that XMvsSF will EVER come back.
