    @Neat: Yeah I noticed quite a bit of that last night. It seems to be a problem everywhere though. I'd love to see a gold-only one of these servers at some point, I guess we might have to host that ourselves though :P

    Just played a bit on the 200x200 server. I was the only one that spoke english during a 6v6, and the only non-builder on my team. It wouldn't have been as bad if my team did something other than build retarded-as-sin structures all around our base and actually helped me attack. I then went builder and rushed, and jumped past their entire team, got the flag, and won. Twice.

    Should I password-protect 150x150 or make it gold? Discuss.
    200x200 remaining public (or vice versa).

    -- Not commenting on language-based whine, some people can't speak English, plain and simple. This is a global medium yada yada and the server's in the netherlands anyways. Catakus deserves a medal for capping twice as builder though, and having his medal immediately revoked for posting about it in the forum.

    But...but it was so shiny! And not complaining, just pointing it out. Don't password either, but I think one of them should go gold. Maybe the 200x200?

    200x200 is currently Gold, and I'm 7.x euros poorer :(

    [edit]
    Shadlington went on a gold-player hunt and we managed an extremely boring 2v2... I'll leave it like that for 24 hours, see what you guys think of it and then possibly reopen to public.

    [edit 2]
    150x150 is really unstable today , crashing and whatnot, so I reopened a public 200x200, there are two empty Gold servers in the lobby anyway, it's not a priority at the moment it seems.

    Its a shame you guys couldn't pull together enough players for a gold match. It'd be nice to see how they work out.

    In other news, these servers are my favourite place to play. Official stamp of approval.

    Quite possibly to get at one of the sites being hosted on said servers. Or just to be dicks. Who knows?

    But what would that eventually achieve? Fame? No. Fortune? No.. So, if it's just a server attack, I'm assuming it's a 'Script Kiddie' (IT really does help when your teacher is allowed to legally hack your system! :D)

    Its impossible to know unless you know what their target was.

    Well they targeted the server host so therefore if they were after a website connected to it I may think otherwise, but to me I think it's some kid playing around with new found toys.

    I guess one of the reasons gold servers aren't successful atm is the simple fact that you don't really know which server in the server list is "gold-only" and which not. MM should really add some sort of indicator to the new server browser.
    If I would see a Gold server with more than...like ~8 players it always would be my preference.

    From what I know MM is working now on Lobby. I guess it will get better.

    Lobby != Browser fwiw. The lobby will be quite a bit of work as it's basically a server config frontend too.

    simple server status monitor @ http://petr.ified.info , will share the code if anyone's interested (mostly ripped from php.net's fsockopen manual)

    [edit] Since build 151 KAG has turned out to be quite the memory leaker. To make up for it I had to reduce the size of 200x200 to 150x150 (not much of a difference anyway).

    Currently running unlimited units on 200x200 , and 150x150 regular units & premium-only. Thinking of adding maps, any suggestions?
