  • What does everyone think of the new server?

    Apolyton switched to a new server recently. No longer hosted on GameStats, the new server's name is SETTLER.

    What do you think of the server so far? Is it fast? Reliable? Secure? Is it too early to say?

    Vote! And post your thoughts here.

    <--- Quote by Former U.S. President Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt
    "And there will be strange events in the skies--signs in the sun, moon, and stars. And down here on earth the nations will be in turmoil, perplexed by the roaring seas and strange tides. The courage of many people will falter because of the fearful fate they see coming upon the earth, because the stability of the very heavens will be broken up. Then everyone will see the Son of Man arrive on the clouds with power and great glory. So when all these things begin to happen, stand straight and look up, for your salvation is near!" --Luke 21:25-28
    For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the call of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, all the Christians who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and remain with him forever. --1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

              It seems good. Hopefully it'll be more reliable than the greek server...

                Seems to be a much better service now.

                Now hopefully it can stay up longer than its previous averages...

                      CowboyNealBananaMan!

                      you really should rename the server "Banana"...

                      anyway, all i can say is i don't have to wait for the forums to zip through markos' outhouse/router

                        Clearly the new server has worked the last couple of days (part of the reason I have returned). We will see if it stays that effective over the long term.

                          The transition was well handled. Look at all the problems we had when we switched servers WITHIN Gamestats!!
