Don't get excited, I'm not making promises here, but...

I'm looking at getting a server hooked up to a nice fast connection, just for you all to play games on. Again no promises, but what games/mods would you like on it (it should be possible to cycle too, i.e. HL on Sundays, UT2K3 on Mondays...)

--

The following would almost certainly be on:

Half-Life
- Counter Strike
- Team Fortress 1.5
- Natural Selection

Unreal Tournament 2003

Possible ones are:

Half-Life
- Day of Defeat
- Science and Industry

Quake 1

Quake 3

Battlefield 1942

--

Yet again DON'T get excited, this is a MAY HAVE. But what games/mods would you like other than the above? And please, no obscure games with 5 players worldwide.

And Cheap, Quake 1 is a possibility...

BF1942 Requires an incredibly fast connection to get a good game running.

I will however be hosting a STALKER server when the games been released.

I'm not too keen on the mod scene so I'll abstain from listing any, since I don't know much. However SoF2 is a great MP game, and you already have UT2k3 and the HL variations listed.

the logistics should be fun...

Possible specs:
Dual AMD 1.3ghz
1gb RAM
5mbps pipe
UPS

And of course if I can pull this off certain peeps will get admin rights...

Now to start writing formal requests. Wish me luck.

Ricochet too? There's a limit to how many processes can be run at once, maybe 8 tops.

it may involve some branding, but what the hell.

Basically I'm in charge of getting some servers sorted for an ISP type thingy, so i'm going to try slip a gaming one in there.

I didn't think ricoshit personally. Having to limit HL to 4 mods though, otherwise it's gonna run like crap, even if I do get a box going. It may even only manage one, but I hope it's better than that.

Current list:

Half-Life:
- Counter-Strike
- Day of Defeat
- Team Fortress
- Natural Selection

UT2K3

Quake 1:
- 4D Shooter

1 cpu thread left (looking at 8, leave one for system). I think.

I haven't even secured the server yet. I may have to just go "Sorry, but I tried." I only need your thoughts on this to put in my case and to work out CPU usage, bandwidth etc.

Donate I don't think would be necessary, it depends how it works out.

Oh ok, well if you need the money, I'm sure, that others will be glad to donate (I am one of them :D )

Anyway! Thanx For The Thought Dawg!
