GTFO Servers are BACK!

[GTFO. Avenger]

We want to once again apologise for the down time but our servers are now back with a number of changes for TF2 and DOD:S...

The IP addresses have stayed the same so your favourites dont need to be changed for your favourite server!

Faults:
- HL2DM #1 is currently stuck on stock map rotation and will be sorted asap.
- Lazytowns AFK kicker doesn't seem to be doing the job atm, so if you notice anyone afk for a long time, you can always join the chat room and call an admin in.

Could the TF2 servers get some numbers? (#1, #2 etc). Also, the db server was more popular than the arena server looking at gameme stats. Maybe arena could be switched to db, or add another server for db?

Hoping the current halloween server will be something like the old #4 or #10 once the event is over.

Not sure why the DB server is gone, considering it was usually active albeit a handful of people.

agreed, it always hovered around 18 - 22 players each evening.

And don't believe the hlstats graph for longer periods of time (like a month or so) look at like a week on it and you see a true representation of the amount of players on the servers

Just did (and did earlier). Don't see how that changes things though. DB has a higher hit count than arena both weekly and monthly. I posted the month count as is easier to see in a broader context how much more popular it is.

These are the stats for the last week:

Have you changed where the servers are hosted?

My latency seems apalling since the downtime, went from about 50 ms on average to over 120.. :(

[GTFO. Avenger]

No ara the hosting hasn't changed at all. We've just moved some servers onto the 2 remaining Physical server cabinets.

[ara]

ah :(

Where are they hosted? gonna ping my provider about this..

[GTFO. Loser]

Ara who is your provider? I am also having issues in the London area because of Virgin Media :/ Faults everywhere

[GTFO. NachoDuck]

Where are they hosted? gonna ping my provider about this..

A few requests:

Please change 'Halloween - Vanilla-Respawn' onto some rotation.

Please number the servers (#1, #2 etc) so it's easier to refer to them.

Please consider changing arena to dodgeball - I've provided data a few posts above.

Please consider adding replays. Out of the 40-50 servers on my favourites, 5 have replays. 1 is a jump map server, 1 is an arena server, 1 is a bot server, 1 is run by reddit. The last I'm sure was a goldeneye server a month ago, and it's always empty now. The 4 others are normally mostly (if not fully) full. I don't know of any major tf2 server providers this side of the Atlantic that have TF2 servers with replays, so that edge could help .

From what I've read on mailing lists and forums there is still some lag with replays, but I think it would be worth trialing again on one server, even if just for a week, to see if it effects the game and servers enough to be a major problem.

[GTFO. Loser]

I have requested the Halloween be Changed to Vanilla Respawn.

The Arena will become Dodgeball.

As soon as these are up and running we can look at testing the Replay features again
