Servers Major European infrastructure upgrade / expansion soon.

Good news. My EU host finally has new inventory. Over the next couple of weeks I will be upgrading all of the existing boxes to faster processors, as well as expanding the current infrastructure.

My current plans are:

• 4 new Wasted servers
• 8 Shotbow Games servers
• 6 Gun Game servers

In addition, I will be expanding the proxy system to increase overall performance and help distribute the load better.

The proxy changes can be expected first, probably before the end of today. The Wasted servers will come next, followed by the Shotbow Games servers / Gun Game servers. After that, we will probably have some short down times for various servers over the next couple of weeks as I migrate all of the existing servers on to the new hardware.

If you are an EU player and were on the fence about supporting the network, now is the time to do it. I am being very aggressive with adding new servers based on feedback from EU folks. Also, tell your friends about the expansion. I know EU has been a bit laggy lately and these upgrades should make things run very smoothly going forward. Spread the word and let folks know that EU Shotbow is getting a nice bump.

Okay okay, I'll get you one DBV server

The event server actually runs on one of our juiced up US boxes we use for development. That being said, I might repurpose one of the MineZ public servers and push it to an event server, since I haven't seen the EU MineZ servers completely full for a while.
