heh ya,

What about getting the alternate server happening so we can have some games going. It might reduce the pressure on Geo a bit as well.

I am running out of things to do and I'm sure the shaking and sweating will start soon.... Damn withdrawl.

I belive his server is better suitied for this kind of hosting than mine, yes.
I have the server for the games I'm hosting.
But anyone can download the PBW emergency server and set it up, as long as they have a PHP capable server.

PBW is going to need some serious upgrade for SE5 when it comes out perhaps a pay per use ($5 a month for serious players should help with the costs + some extra support from MM with servers etc)

I thought PBW was all Java/MySQL and on a Windows server.

Or will SE5 have other considerations?
Shrapnel can probably host an SE5 server

If he got his way through we would pay 10 cents each time we surf a page at the shrapnel forum, see his earlier Posts on this forum, he's gotta be rich!
