it'd probably be better to visit: http://www.portforward.com cuz they cover basically every router out there, and they show which ports you need to open for many applications, such as games like GunZ and all other applications like uTorrent, and whatever you can think of. They also go very in depth for every router. Plus, this may not work for some people who have a Dynamic IP address, in which case they would have to create a static ip address, which portforward.com shows you how. Plus, this only works for people with a router, so if you use a modem, and your gameplay isn't great, don't even bother trying to do this, cuz you won't be able to. Also, every router has different layouts, like I wouldn't be able to portforward if I followed you're tutorial, cuz the way I portforward on my router is quite a bit different from your way. So, although it's good you made this tutorial, I think people should follow http://portforward.com because they go in depth in almost every router, and give specific instructions on how to portforward for many different applications (such as GunZ), and they explain how to get past various situations you may come across.

what's your router's name? I know they're still trying to get down every router, so there may be a place for you to submit your router's name/model, and then hopefully they get around to it (I know it's a loooooooooooooooong shot, but still :P).
