    Iko's CTF Adventures broke off the 64 player best score from Release (@wormy you scrub, it wasn't classic) and reached the insane amount of 65 players!
    It was pretty much apocalyptic but we had a pretty good time. Nice job, everyone!

    Sorry to be a downer, but 64 players wasn't the limit in classic, it was just the maximum amount of bandwidth any server host was willing to pay for, past that point it ramped up much more exponentially because of how the network was done at the time. Some guy used to try to host a 128 player server where I've seen about 82 people on at once, and then the server exploded.

    This is pretty cool though, I think I might hop on.
    Edit: I missed the fun

    Well fook, in kag classic the server probably was full of non-premium plebs and u could spam it with 20 alts :^( If it would be kag classic on a premium-only server - ok, but non-premium plebs were probably like 90% of the server when there were 82 players

    The CPU was catching on fire, but the bandwidth seemed pretty fine haha. The machine we had has 100mbps guarenteed and around 500mbps usually.

    Would have liked to see the netgraph, not surprised the CPU was having a hard time either :)
