New Server (sort of)

Post by SilentSwan »

shattered.dyndns.org:5154 running MadCity map for the time being. 10 player limit until a faster connection can be brought in here. NO WINGS on this server, so don't ask for them :)

Anyway, can't guarantee this will stay up, and if it does, the map will likely change, so check it out, see if it's worth it.

Thanks...

Thanks everyone who's stopped in and offered a lot of very nice comments. Looks like it worked out a little better than I thought, though I *did* start seeing too much lag when we got to about 10 players. I set the count down to 9 for now....

Next step, if I decide to keep this running: get a better link :)

Thank you very much for using this map (MadCity)...this was and is my favourite map for FFA servers.
I'm quite happy...which explains why I played there 3 hours now. :D

ok..the lag is a problem. It increases sometimes and the most player have around 150-200ms...but who cares...? ;)

Keep it up...

The server has been moved off my poor pokey DSL line (which actually did far better than I thought it would). It's now available on a good connection with increased player slots:

Have fun!

If you don't host it now, who does?

It's gone. It's history. Sorry.

I've got too many problems in my life right now to be playing around with this stuff. Sorry.

What I mean is, I blew it away and shut it down. I have ZERO patience for it. Figured I'd kill it before it got too busy.

Unless logic has changed it's rules recently, shutting down a server means you can't play on it.

Darn, I really liked that server :). MadCity is a great map, I suggest someone else hosting it for more good times.
