    1) Nothing will happen past 93 unless you connect/join
    2) EC2 IPs are 1:1 NAT'd, you will need to port forward from aws-console (security groups or something, I forget)
    3) If you are on anything lower than High-CPU Medium Instance your server will fail miserably up to and including the entire server being banned for speedhacking. If you try to abuse CPU on cheap instances, you will be forcefully throttled until your load goes down to acceptable levels. This will result in the above and SSH also sucking until your load drops.
    4) KAG uses a lot of bandwidth (+cpu) for any decent sized server. I don't recommend using EC2 or any form of virtual machine. By don't recommend I literally mean just don't do it.
