Team Turtle. No More
« on: January 31, 2010, 02:30:53 AM »
In the next few days. the NY server.known as Team Turtle.. will be moved to UK. (ORIG. TF Server is staying.)
It will be lowgrav DM. with a slightly different weapons setup.trying to tap into overseas players.
a few of our current members will benefit from this move,but I hope you guys will still play together some.
this has been talked about for 6 months,or better,main reason holding me back was this..fear of separating player base.
so to my North American friends.. don't be shy play Euro server some.. Across the pond.. same deal.. check out ORIG TF.



once again,and I can't say this enough.. thanks for all your CONT.. support. overwhelming @ times..
you guys are the best Gaming community on the face of the planet,and that's the bottom line..

if you'd like to help advert downerup.com. I have made section with html code banners.. here.

Oh ballsack, I don't think it will lower your ping sadly.  Holland is more or less exactly on the other side of the planet to you... it will give you the highest ping possible on this planet :O

Our server company does Israel servers though lol!  That's somewhat closer to you.

I'll be nice for our Euro players to have a server closer to their homes. I have gotten to know a few really great / cool TF players from the the UK and Germany as well as other Euoro countries. I'd be really sad to see 'em less. So while I wish them fun with the new server, I hope they continue to play w/ us here at TF USA.
Cheers guys!!!!!

UR ping would be lower on Orig TF Chicago.. however.. I have to add.. my weapons are all zeroping now.. so a headshot..is a head shot. :P as long as it's around 100 ,or less.. should be ok..

I actually doubt it will affect the main sever that much to be honest.  There is a massive peak time for Postal around 4-8 GMT for Euro players, and much of this time the USA TF server does not see much action anyway.  Also, I very much doubt current Euro players will ditch the usa server altogether, if they join and see more action on the USA server, they will join that (like myself). 

To be honest, the 'other' euro low grav server is seeing alot of action lately, so D's giving it a go temping them over to the dark side.  Not that I have anything against that other server, it's a good set up, but the admin is no longer that active and still has not updated his server 1409X, so it's no doubt riddled with cheaters.

I'm not against the idea of putting money into my pocket for an Aussie server, but I'd need convincing that you guys there would try hard to promote it and get a fan base around it.  I find it interesting there are at least 2 of you on TF despite a 250 odd ping.
