I'm thinking of upping the Tribes player limit to 30, since it stays full at 28. You all may remember I used to run 36 players, which was fun, but 36 may be a mess with TD on. 30 may be fine, we'll see.
----------------
I put up the new balanced FACE-LE map today on the UT Server, let's see how it plays. Also after much thought I cut the UT Server back to 28 players. For some maps, particularly November, 30 players gets a tad bit jerky, even though the server is at about 30% CPU usage. Since 32 players is the absolute max for UT, perhaps 30 gets a bit too close, so let's see how 28 plays, I think it will be sweet. I think everyone's ping, when it is full, will be about 25% lower.
-------------------
One more thing. I am seriously considering pulling all of the servers down within the next few months. The time, energy, and to a lesser extent, the money, to run the servers is wearing on me. I have run public servers for well over two years now, and have met some terrific folks. I'm still thinking it over. I'll keep everyone posted. I will not just pull them down without some warning.
