CLICK for ====> MAPS (updated on 4 December 2007) & Player STATS (not updated but stay tuned for a Free Stats program that will be open source and work with E+ 1.03 and 1.04).

Hello all WASP2 mates and community members,

I would like to announce the coming availability of a PUBLIC E+ Server to be hosted in Atlanta. This will be a 20 slot server that I will personally fund from 1 November to 30 April 2008.

Details:

The server will run a modified DeeX configuration and will have the Plus configuration for match purposes. Callvoting of maps, and configs (Deexslds.cfg or Plus.cfg) is enabled.

Modifications to the DeeXslds.cfg:

1. Increased multi-jumps from 5 to 12.
2. Increased Anti-Camp from 20/150/65 to 13/180/80
3. Added and enabled Shootable Items.

Why a modified DeeX config? Plus is great for training and FW/CW matches but DeeX is a magnet for nOObs and many veterans because deep down although we swear against SPAM we love the spammy glory and mayhem that it provides. Also, I am personally having a hard time finding a decent E+ US Server that is located in the SouthEast corner of the US.

The server will be available 24/7 Monday - Friday. It will also be available on Saturdays and Sundays but all WASP2 training and matches will take precedent. Also, any North/South American Clan without a server is welcome to ask me about using it on Saturday or Sunday for training or matches.

The server will have 18 maps in rotation and 12 of these will be common maps in rotation at most popular E+ Server or integrated in Q3.

I am seeking IMMEDIATE help from respected Community members. Ultimately, I would like 2 Administrators and 2 - 4 Referees who can drop in on the server from time to time on a daily basis.

I have not settled on a name although I am toying with the name "An E+ Twat Smoothie" Big grin

If you think you have a better name just post it quickly.

That's a VERY good news! I think I can help you out with setting up the server Winking I had though of some servers name in the past:

(Many names directly come from Daikatana)
#1 Hellish Havens
#2 Bloodkeep
#3 Decay of Heroes
#4 Mutant Academy
#5 Instant Gibblers
#6 Outlands X+
#7 Forsaken Outpost
#8 Circles of Death
#9 Storm Sector
#10 Frag Garden
#11 Catacomb Carnage
#12 Altar of Heroes
#13 Hard Lesson
#14 Gibblers on the Roof
#15 Fragfest

As for config, I'd say try to keep Deex or Plus, it's better to stay in existing track, but it's just my opinion :oops:

Thank you Dis. I will be contacting you today. I was hoping you would be one to respond.

As for the config, the changes to the DeeX config that I would like to make are VERY minor. It is not likely to annoy anyone who likes the DeeX config.

The game type will be mostly TDM/Freeze. I like most other game types especially Clan Arena but from what I see most ppl do not like Clan Arena on public servers and do not like rotating game types that vary from map to map.

I am not trying to compete with DeeX or Dvinsk. I am simply trying to provide a server for ppl who live particularly in the SouthEast US and Central/South America. Also, it will help out WASP2's goals to be the most active Clan and provide a place where other Server-less Clans can train or compete.

----------------

I would like to thank the ppl who sent me PMs or E-Mails regarding Admin or Referee positions. I have responded to everyone and will fill some positions this week and the remainder next week.

If anyone is still interested in either position please contact me.

Server Status

The initial server configs have been setup by Dis with a little input by me. Initially the server will feature a Team Death Match (TDM) gametype based on the DeeX config.

However, look for Dis to post info on the Forum from time to time alerting players of changes (especially in gametype) and soliciting feedback on proposed changes.

The final Server name will be "Death Head Fraggers" (I'll post the IP and Port here later)

*sigh* I did like "An E+ Twat Smoothie" Big grin

The Adminstrators will be Dissonance:BE: and A*Class*02jr. The Referees will be WaspForest, WaspShadowKDE, Shinigami:BE:, and PODBo$$.

UPDATE:

grrrrrrrrr... Another delay. The Server has been up and running for a few hours now but most people are having difficulty connecting because of an error message. Some can press ESC and try to connect again with success and others cannot. The exact error message is

CL_ParseServerMessage: Illegible Server Message

A fix is in the works and hopefully this will be resolved by Friday morning.

Previous message...

Ok, the Server is finally up with E+ not Baseq3 like earlier today. It is listed on several Master Browsers including the E+ Spider.

The Server's name is Death Head Fraggers. I chose not to put a gametype in the name as the sever is likely to switch between TDM and Multi-Arena (which will have simultaneous TDM, Freeze, and 1 vs 1 maps).

Server Name: DHF (Death Head Fraggers)

IP: 64.154.38.103

Port: 27960

Console Command: /connect 64.154.38.103:27960;reconnect

Currently the gametype is Team DeathMatch (TDM) at 75 frags, and the Administrators and Referees are:

Admin: Dissonance:BE:

Admin: A*Class*02jr

Admin: WaspKiller

Referee: WaspForest

Referee: WaspShadowKDE

Referee: Shinigami:BE:

Referee: PODBo$$
