Any interest in a US-Based trackr.net TF2 or DOD:S server?

We need some new servers, so I'm thinking about getting a 24-slot server going for a month or so to see if it would be used.

I play more DOD:S than TF2, but I think that there are likely more TF2 players on here ...

Any interest?
I would need admins. Any existing game admins (or responsible members) think they would be interested in adminning a Source server?

(If EU players are interested, I would locate in Virginia ... if only US players, then likely Chicago or Texas).

I like the TF2 server idea (I don't have DOD:S). You have my support (which is all you truly need imho).

I think TF:2 would be more successful tbh.

You can typically just take over a server if the only agenda is just one event.

Actually if there was a popular BF2S DoD server, I might get that game.

Hrmmm...we have a pretty nice server in my house that I wanted to use as a game server, but we had problems getting rcon to work for some reason...the demand for a CS scrim server died down so I never got it working. It probably wouldn't be going anytime soon, but if there isn't enough demand to warrant buying a server it could be an alternative.

3400+, 2gb of RAM on a 15mb line, all it's running right now is a small teamspeak server

I was with you until that whole "buying a server" phrase.

TF2, but only if it runs only official maps with 24 slots and no reserved slots (unless one of them is for me).

How did you want to trial a server?

I'm more than willing to let BF2S use the server, but I don't know if it could handle the load if it actually got popular. I could definitely be wrong about that though.

Also there would be other slight problems, such as how much access people could get remotely to the server and still maintain network security, we can't help it if the IP changes, and power outages.

Off-line ... PMs ... let this thread get back to "who wants a server" ... "what game on the server" ... "who are our admins"
