I glanced at the server last night, but instead played on a different server running at 512 FPS which was running two Balloon race maps. I had a great deal of Fun: The other team seemed to always have 2-4 snipers capable of rapid headshots regardless of attempts at dodging, so we lost every round, and I played around 12 or so. (I was getting around 15-30 ping to that server and it was running super-smooth with no lag at all.)

The DF server was showing as 150 ping (and empty), and on a standard map (2fort), so I went with the choice which looked better at the time.

Edit: Removed references to the server and who runs it and anything else associated with them since SHAD0Wdump complained was unhappy about it.

[SHAD0Wdump]

Yeah... Thanks for the advertisement...

[Shadowlord]

I'll remove it if you like. I don't know if nobody was on the DF server because it was so late, or what.

Also, I know there was one balloon race map originally, but I don't know if someone from that group made another one based on it or what; google isn't finding another map, but they have two maps in the rotation.

Edit: Edited the previous post to remove references, then edited this one too. There you go. Now nothing says who runs the server or anything about them.

[SHAD0Wdump]

Ugh... I knew there was something wrong with opening my trap...

[Nilocy]

huh, whats going on here?

Anyhoo, shadowlord I don't really care if your going onto another server, like every single other one we have peak times. Because most people who use the server (the DFC folks) are basically from all around the globe we dont have a specific time. People go on if they see people on, so if its empty, ask some folks to come on and people will.

And i dont mind if you advertise other servers. Just remember this threads about our server.

It makes more sense to advertise in the main TF2 topic anyway.

So I played on the server today for around 30 minutes, most of which was by myself. Vlynndar came on for a while, but then his client apparently timed out. There wasn't any noticeable lag for me at 120-ish ping, but then again, there was only 1 or 2 people on the server during that time.

[Nilocy]

Well, the game's we just had seemed very fun. It was good seeing lotsa DFC members out there having a good time and all.

Also, server update: Seems the map voting has stopped working. I shall endevour to find out why.

Edit: 10 seconds in i already know the problem. I forgot to close the code line thing, i had a { instead of a }. Silly me. Anyhoo, should be all working by tomorrow again.

[SHAD0Wdump]

Theres probably about half a dozen heavys fisting everything in their path right now.

[Zai]

Is there a problem with that, SHAD0W? I thought MASS HEAVY MELEE was quite enjoyable.

So that was several fun games! Many people were on (see the tracker in Nilocy's sig), and I didn't have much lag. Map voting was fixed soon after Nilocy departed.

And I'm still known as Mantis Shrimp.

[SHAD0Wdump]

The only problem with that is I had to leave to eat! O(

[buman]

Payed with zai and some others today, it was awsome fun!

[Zai]

Indeed. We had several all-one-class games, and all-melee games. Quite fun.

Lots of people on tonight. Including one not so pleasant fellow at one point. Which makes me want to raise the question: does the server have a voteban function?

It does, but im restricting it to admins, cause it could lead to alot of people (randoms people joining not DFC members) joining and greifing the system. I've seen it happen before, a bunch of folks disliking one guy for no good reason and kicking/baning him.

[umiman]

I just paid $15 towards the server. Not sure if it needs it though.

Thank you! Now we have funds to run the server for three months! I still aint donated my share yet. I think we can call donations off for now at least. So yeah, any more will be welcome but we dont _need_ them right the now.
