I doubt if any of them would be under 200ms for me anyway.

Online gaming - not for AustraliansWithout Worms Armageddon, poor Australians like Strider would never have even killed anything in an online game. Please, pledge just two pounds a month to AussieWormAid. Your two pounds helps build wells... Wells which can be used to store the corpses of fallen worms.
Please. Think of the Aussies.

I think we can assume Urby would get numbers similar to the ones Huntey posted since they are in the same country and so far all Europeans have reported New York City and Washington DC to give the best ping.
The Netherlands isn't too far away, The Mighty Atom would probably get similar numbers, too.
Australians, what ping do you get on NYC and WDC?
San Jose obviously doesn't work for Europeans and if WDC/NYC doesn't work for the Australians maybe we should consider someplace else. Chicago and Atlanta give me an acceptable ping.

Server will be going up next week, after the competition ends. To be honest, I'd rather maximize my time to finish the competition instead of worrying about balancing mapping and server maintenance.

2 days before compo ends. I'm loading shells into mah shotgun.
Also, if anyone wants a custom DM skin/model made just let me know. I can use facegen to add your actual face onto one of the PS2 DM models as well if you please.
If you want a model with your face you need to choose a body:
Scientist, Security, Hgrunt or HEV.
I also need a 2 photographs of your face (1 from the front and one from the side.) Photo's need to be straight on with a blank expression (expression of your choice can be added later) and no hair, glasses or other objects in the way of your facial structure (again, these objects can be modelled on later if you so choose.)

Well I wanted to get the server up today, but there's this whole mess of bullshit that I have to wade through for Paypal to actually register my subscription. For one, I can't just pay with the money in my account; Paypal requires a card to be linked to an account to send money that's already in your account for some ridiculous fucking reason. That's going to take at least 3 days because they take their sweet time.
What a fucking mess.

Awesome! Way to get it together world crafter! Sorry I didn't donate, I don't have money in my bank right now anyways due to not being scheduled at work.

I have a twhl skyscraper DM map i was working on when COMPLETLEY inebriated one day. I'll have to revive that from my graveyard and re-submit.
Has crazy vertical aspects to it.
And a 3rd floor pool! XD
Speaking of graveyard.. Now i must resume my work on castle disposed.
I'll start that tuesday. The G/f is back from holiday (that's for all your non-americans) and we gotta so see Harry Potter tonight.

With maps using NPCs in multiplayer?
Have grunts and scientists and stuff?
I know! Fight in an office building at night... And the security guards aren't happy about it!
(Monstermakers would ensure both 9mm ammo and enemies stay constant)

Both valid suggestions, exept sometimes mp_allowmonsters 1 crashes the game, and Sven coop never worked properly on my comp.
Probably the lack of steam.

I was thinking of puting a ichthyosaur in my map. Well the poor beast would get raped to death at the beginning of every time the map was played :aggrieved:. Unless that is if I made him invisible! 
Luckily I really focused on gameplay with my compo map..

The most deadliest monster in a multiplayer map would be baby headcrabs. They're too small to be rapidly killed and in masses they're lethal. And anyway you could make them come in an infinite loop.

Gameplay is only fun in halflife when vertical gameplay and "gauss gameplay" is included in the map so that you can fly around it and reach areas you couldn't without it. Well I can't say a lot of maps aren't fun but the only reason I even play halflife is to zoom around with the gauss and own people with the bow and the almighty shotgun. If Halflife deathmatch's gauss didn't launch you and there was no longjump I would care less about the game.
