The Linux version of BYOND will work on Xubuntu. You should note however that the Linux version of BYOND can only host games, not play them.

Yes.
You could try WINE, but when I tried that it wouldn't even install.

I did not understand that post at all. What would "and that" be? Forums are not a chatroom, taking the time to write coherent posts makes it easier for people to understand and help you.

With Wine you can install and use the Windows version of BYOND. Wine can be obtained from http://winehq.org. It isn't perfect though, so you may not be happy with the results. For more information, please check out the Linux Guild for more information.

Xubuntu is ubuntu, http://www.winehq.org/download/deb Will work, as I don't think Wine has any major GNOME/KDE dependencies.

And GNOME dependencies would likely be already good. Xubuntu shares a lot of GTK applications with Ubuntu. I have actually installed Wine on Xubuntu and I can verify that it works exactly like Ubuntu and doesn't require any special effort to install.
