Crashed Server Question

I have recently set up a new server in a colo facility with a large pipe. One of my clan members and I were on the server checking it out, and building lots of stuff to see if there were any problems, when someone joined. He changed his name to have our clan tag in front of it (I hadnt set up AM name protection) and then the server crashed. I'm not sure if he did it or us, because we had been spamming mines and turrets to see how much it took to crash the server. I just thought it was kinda odd that it crashed right after he joined. Anyway, here are some of the lines from the logs, what do you guys think?

Comments
the main problems i find will mess it up are
HUGE motd.txt
lots of mines/turrets
LARGE rooms, with massive LOS (think ns_siege005, or ns_misslecommand_final3)

Just a guess, but those log lines might be indicative of the flood attacks that ragers often perform. Anyone with more experience regarding those attacks have a comment?
