    What are the server specifications?

    EDIT: Because everyone is adding a silly turtle to their post, I'm adding one to mine too..

    4.5ghz i5 if I recall correctly, enough for smooth gameplay.

    Oh, and I'm in.

    As soon as a Linux version of the server is out, I promise that Americans will have a great server to call home!

    I urge people to come along, playing in a semi organised way with mostly motivated players can be a lot of fun. ns2_turtle is a fantastic map for fast and violent gameplay. It will be a good evening!

    We are investigating possibilities on getting up more than one server to ensure that everybody are able to play. If you can't get in at 8PM make sure to check later. We're planning to keep the event going the whole evening. I'm don't think we can have separate slots for spectators. It is unknown to me how spectators affect to the server CPU load. We are most probably taking some video footage of the event and post it to Youtube afterwards for those who can't attend for any reason.

    I'm sorry to hear that. It would be great to have you aboard! If you happen to be at home later in the evening and feel like coming to say hello or playing a round or two that'd be cool too. I have some business to do in the evening too and I can't be there for the whole event either.

    Great! I'm happy to hear that the event is spreading!

    But i'm sorry to announce that because of some surprising circumstances we have to postpone the start of the event by one hour. Thus the event will start tomorrow in 21:00 Central European Time. Looking forward to see you all there!

    Edit: We have prepared 3 servers now to ensure that everybody can play. Thanks for HBZ for allowing us to use one of their servers! Please invite all of your team members, friends, etc! Lets make it big!

    Servers are up! Join fast! First come first served!

    Let's turtle!

    Edit: There seems to be a problem with the server #2 It gives an error that server and client files are different. Please use only servers #1 and #3. I will give a notice if we can get server #2 fixed. Thank you!
