"Why" is a good question.
If your reason for writing a new programming language is fame - forget it. You'll never beat the number of users of Qu (a language similar to Euphoria, but with real objects) - even though it works very well, there are between zero and one people using it, AFAIK.

(Oh... if you meant fame for having the largest number of users, I think you can forget that.)
If your reasoning is:
- you are dissatisfied with some features of Euphoria,
- and you know enough about programming to be able to write a new language
then wouldn't your time be better spent (and more appreciated) if you used those talents to fix Eu?
If you want to write something that would actually be used by more than a handful of people, maybe you should try to get Eu (with GUI and IDE) to run on non-rooted Android devices, they're everywhere!
