The Return of the Interlopers Gentlemen's Club

[ad_hominem]

You might remember the crazy notion I had a while back about a website community based around source games actually getting together and playing a few of them. Unfortunately, due to expensive server costs and my determinedness not to get a job, our TF2 server was relatively short-lived.

Luckily, I've found a cheaper server provider by the name of ClanSlots, and have set up a Counter-Strike: Source server with them for at least a month, and hopefully longer depending on popularity. According to the provider, I can also switch the server around between any of these games: Counter-strike Source, Counter-Strike 1.6, Call Of Duty 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress 2, Call Of Duty: UO, MineCraft and Garry's Mod.

As of right now, it's running CSS:
Name: The Interlopers Gentlemen's Club
IP: 81.19.217.222:27165
Password: blink (only when we've got something organised)

I'll be posting organised events in the Interlopers Gentlemen's Club steam group, so join that if you haven't already. ClanSlots also provide a nice and easy way for generous folk to donate money towards the upkeep of the server, which can be found on their site.

Awesome!

Extremely generous of you man! =D I'll be sure to pop on when I get the chance!

Just added the server to favs, glad it is CSS and not TF2 (not really the tf2 guy)

How are we supposed to join the steam group if it's by invite only?

Someone invite me..

Invited you, but yeah I've changed it to public now.

On a side note, if anyone wants to test their map on the server feel free to send me a PM and we can arrange an event to try and get some people together to play it.

This is great!


When I get some free cash I'll be sure to donate some.

[Jordash]

Awesome

[Ark11]

Great, perhaps we could play some maps made by interlopers members?

[SotaPoika]

I agree. Cs_metroplex could easily be one of the maps in map rotation I think.

[ad_hominem]

Yeah, please suggest any decent CSS maps made by members, so I can put them into rotation.

[Edit] Although a map designed for 64 players might be a bit big for a 16-slot server.

[MayheM]

I will give it a shot... My ping will be a bit high but with it to game with you guys. I may even see if you would upload my map as well and see if I can get some feedback. It is really close to release at this point. I am just working on optimizing.

I added it to my favorites last night...

[Deh0lise]

Just in case you get bored of playing good maps (like de_forest), I made one not so good long ago that can be funny for few games, though the layout didn't work as I was too inexperienced:( - viewtopic.php?f=3&t=22335&p=264323&hilit=de_supply_beta#p264323

Also, will this server help people test their layouts? I've got a CSS map blocked out (just needs props and textures) and I'm turning mad as I'm everyday seeing parts that could be improved (layout wise) but it's hard to tell without a proper test.

[LordDz]

So.. How long until shitmaps nights get up and running again?

[ad_hominem]

I've finally set up the server with Sourcemod and some custom maps (and FastDL), and scheduled an event for tonight, in about 2 hours. Exact time can be found here.

[darkpivot]

I'm on the server right now. May I suggest enabling Source TV?

[Smurftyours]

I don't want to sound like I nag, but damn the lag will be unbearable if your in the states.
