Quake 4 Server Usage

Post by Denz »

I just checked the server this morning and it was down and no one said anything.

Is anyone using this server?

I guess if no one is going to use the server I suppose I will shut it down.

Didn't even check last night. DOH!

Have you gotten with DooMer yet Denz?

He would know more than anyone about how much it were used :icon26:

Well I'm in need of a bit of coffee with the wife before work.

*waves* Thanks for the ICQ Denz. :icon25:

Before I do anything with the server I'm checking with Doomer (that's a given). There have been 86 hits to this thread, I'm sure if anyone cared they would speak up.

I personally think Quake 4 is dead. But I could be wrong. :paranoid:

I could host a Quake 3 server if that's what everyone wants.

I think you might be best holding onto your cash for a while sir, ET:QW is right around the corner and no matter whether it's awesome or a complete letdown, there will be an initial rush of playing it here.

IMO of course.

Tell me you'll be spending some time online when ET:QW hits the shelves!

How about a TA server with fenders server-side mod? Mebbe just for a little while. :paranoid: I can make a thread every weekend about TA games, I'm sure a few from here would show up for some weekend games.

I would be happy to sponsor a few servers here, if someone would like to run them. I don't have time to admin any.

All machines are Internap, Dual Opteron, RAID 5, 4 gigs ram. Locations available are Dallas, San Francisco, and New York.

You could have 1 in each location. :)

For Q3? You'd prolly get very little action on a Q4 server, as we just witnessed.

3 servers, you can run whatever games that are supported on the front page:

See on the list.

The control panel allows you to install any game we support and you can run them as you please.

How to explain ...

Does that make sense?

Also, I use the Q3 browser trick:
