Thanks guys.

I'll try to keep everyone up to date on the fund balance. I've been slack about that.

FYI the Pub Server expires this Sunday, April 1st. It's not set to auto-renew because the paypal info was removed so we'll have to put something back in if we're keeping it.

we have $100 due for the web host as well.

our current balance is $426

The server cost is approx 286 for 90 days

shall i spend the $386 and renew everything "as is" or do we want to make some changes.

drop the server?
lessen the server tick rate and/or size?

the server is currently a huge money drain. we could use the funds for something else later.

in put?

shall we have a vote and/or council discussion about it?

[Sammie]

hello??

is there anybody out there?

or shall I just make this decision on my own since no one seems to give a shit?

Personally we could probably lower the play slots. I enjoy playing with GNG, as far as thats concerned we could have like 16 or 18 slots. We can go to another server to play with pubs.

I say drop some of the slots. Is it currently 100 tick?

[MiddleFinger]

I don't see how the cost is justified. It's been almost two weeks and I have not seen one single person on our server. I'm talking about prime time...between 8 and 11 (7 and 10 cst). I've sat in the server a couple times for about 30 minutes each, and I got on person on one time. One of GNG's long time pubs. We dicked around for about an hour, and no one else showed. I think that may have been last Saturday.

Does the server show up in the steam server list? I've never seen it. I always have to manually add the server.

[Sammie]

i never have to add the server. it always shows on my list and it is always empty

it is a huge money sink

i'm going to put up a vote

i cant remember when it expires again but I guess I better check soon

I'll report back


I think we will have to make a decision soon

[Sammie]

tick rate is 100

if we drop it to a 16 man server it would save us around 15 bucks a month

[MiddleFinger]

once I add to m favorites, it stays. I'm talking about the public list, and now I can't even get steam started to verify.

If you guys want to cut costs but keep a server my host is also in ATL and you can get a 66tickrate server for 1.49 per slot. Sammie played on my Source server last night and it is very stable.

Let me know and I will shoot Sammie a referal.. There is no actual difference between 66 and 100 tickrate according to Steam. The biggest difference is server resources which is why it costs more. if you add a 20 player vent it is only another $4 but you guys could use my vent if you wanted too....

I would just give you access to my source server but it is a 24/7 GunGame server

[McTucket]

i say cut the player slots from whatever it is now to 16....

who the fuck else puts money towards gng?

are you adults slacking on your payments?

$33.95 per month for 20 player and vent. It will be setup as a 33 tickrate then you just put in a ticket to have it upgraded to 66 tickrate which is free.

There are other discounts if you prepay of course.
