bangbang023 Veteran Posted June 28, 2005 Veteran Share Posted June 28, 2005 --------Notice-------- Within the next few weeks, you may see changes in the server information presented. One of the changes will include the change of the CS:S server IP address. I have no control over this IP address change, and will post the new one as soon as we switch over. --------End Of Notice-------- Neowin Presents... The Counterstrike: Source Server! Quick Server Info: Server Name: Neowin's Counterstrike: Source Server Gamer Limit: 20 Players Server Address: gs01.nwserver.net The Full Skinny: Blackice912 has, once again, graciously used private funds to provide a 20 man server for everyone to use. The address of the server is gs01.nwserver.net and should show up as Neowin's Counterstrike: Source Server. Please help us stress test this server by joining in on the fun and abusing it for a while ;) With the inception of a Neowin server run and owned by Neowin staffers, I would like to restart the Neowin Gaming Community. Simply put, it would be a noncompetitive clan for CS: S. Much like another server I visit, we would be a collection of cool people just gaming together and having a good time. The key term is "cool people". If you are interested in being part of this gaming community, please contact me directly or simply join the server when I'm on. Skill has no importantance, but we obviously don't want to let anyone wear a Neowin tag if they can't get along with everyone and be a generally nice person. If we get enough people, perhaps we can have community nights where only community members can join and we can have interclan matches. If we get good enough, perhaps the clan can get more competitive and square off with outside competition. However, we want to make sure we always have a good time and make the most out of the game we love to play. Any questions about the server or community can be posted here. Please direct server issues to blackice912 and questions about the clan towards me. Server Guidelines: Neowin Community Rules apply to the server. Please use your Neowin name, if you have one. Respect all other players, friend and foe alike Excessive "hacks!" or similar cries will not be tolerated. Report abuse to blackice912 if no admin is on. Include player name and time. Please keep teams balanced and fair. If one team is dominating, a top player should switch teams with an opposing player to help level the field. No one is to wear the nw| tag unless officially inducted into the clan Remember to thank blackice912 for his kindness and remember his say is final. ...more to come Server Admins: blackice912 (owner) bangbang023 Current Clan Members: bangbang023 (leader) blackice912 (leader) Marshalus Liquid Fog Dogg Noc (Synthetic Darkness) Forum stncttr908 Only members listed above should wear nw tag Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/337627-neowins-css-server-and-gaming-community/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but every weapon has a proper counter. Tickrate relates to the amount of updates sent out to the client. The higher the number, the better the hit detection and such. The default is 33, though blackice912 may bump it up once things are settled.

StupendousMan Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 I would like to get in on this...by non-competitive you mean just gaming? no scrims, leagues, etc...? I probably can't be that serious into it.

bangbang023 Veteran Posted June 28, 2005 Author Veteran Share Posted June 28, 2005 By non competitive, I mean that there are no official matches where we face other teams and either win or lose. However, I will be very skeptical about accepting people onto the team. After work today, I plan on organizing myself a bit. You will have to play a few times with me before I accept you for the simple fact that many people will join and disappear after two days otherwise. There are meant to be no hard feelings, but I want to go about this seriously. If you want, add me to XFire ( bangbang023 ) and wait for me to play and then join in.
