Not anymore. We had a server in the past, but it fell apart and never came back to life.

There were a few nibbles on other servers that could have become AT servers, but nothing really came to fruition unfortunately. I was even thinking of starting one myself, but I just don't have the time to maintain something like that right now.

Currently I am pretty much exclusively playing on the BHSlaughter servers.

There's the Anandtech group on Steam so you can at least see where others are playing.

24/7 2fort, hahaaaaaaaaahaha.

vivicalproductions.com:27016 is the IP.

I would not mind tweaking it around a bit, and making it a AT server.

Lol, seriously? I haven't played 2fort forever, so maybe I'll drop by and check it out.

Yup, everything was very stable last weekend. (First weekend I got it up).

I also run a 1.6 server off that same box.

vivicalproductions.com is that IP.

I was thinking if purchasing a different domain name to make it easier ie vivishut.com, or vivics.com vivitf2.com, etc....or attf2, atcs, etc.

Yeah, let me know what you think. Everyone in MN with cable got around 10-20ms, chicago friends did as well.

It is a very good server actually, love my 50mb connection at home :)

I'm in Vancouver, so not too far away. I imagine my ping won't suffer too badly.

Canadian cable users also have a great ping. :thumbsup:

If you want, I can put on that admin mod thing, and maybe if it gets more popular, I will open it up to 32 slots....and start setting up an admin base.

:SHRUG:

I'm on fibre, so I'm not too worried.

32 is a lot! If you're already getting full though, then it may work out.

The server is hosted via comcast docsis 3.0 ... I am actually impressed with the speeds. 50mb/5mb.

That's because their "highspeed" home service is crap. SUPPOSEDLY it's 6mbps down and 384kbps up (so ****ing slow upspeeds), or you can pay $10 more a month for 8mbps/768kbps. At some unknown point the upload is supposedly going to go to 1mbps/2mbps respectively, but they announced it and I've heard nothing past that.

Their customer service is terrible (their "solution" to most problems is to disconnect your router and only use one machine with the modem), their modems are cheap pieces of crap, and you almost NEVER get your advertised speeds. And then they filter all P2P traffic, so that linux distro you wanted to try? Takes an ungodly long time to download.

I wish FIOS was available here.

Yeah, we need an official AT server again. It was fun while it lasted. There's way too many of us on here not to get together ......

I would be more then willing to lend my server to the cause of AT TF2 server.
