Server discussion
Piglet:
We've boiled down the options to four at the moment. These are in my order of current preference:
1. AMD server with CPU a little faster than the one rented for the test, hosted in the UK near me
2. Intel server with CPU the same as the one rented for the test, hosted in the UK near me
This server is currently hosted in that datacentre near me: https://miasma.rocks/mon2.php?s=4
3. Intel server with CPU the same as the one rented for the test, hosted in the Nederlands where the test was done
The Warfare server is currently running from there: https://miasma.rocks/mon2.php?s=1
4. Remain on the old VPS server.
The Freon and iCTF servers are currently hosted there: https://miasma.rocks/mon2.php?s=0 and https://miasma.rocks/mon2.php?s=2
In order to do any of the options 1-3 we need a little more in donations to pay for the hosting costs. It will be around £360 a year to run once the hardware is bought.
I'm willing to buy the hardware myself for the community, and for option 3 Nardaq_NL has offered to pay for the hardware himself - however if anyone wants to help specifically towards the physical machine, please let me know.
For options 1 and 2 the payments out would be in Sterling (£/GBP). For option 3 the payments out would be in Euros (€/EUR)
If anyone is interested in helping, the donation link is at the bottom of the page...or here: https://miasma.rocks/pages/donate.php
If anyone has any particular thoughts about this, please post in this thread
Piglet:
For information, we have about a month and 4 days left on the test server - so will be reverting back to the VPS (option 4) when the rental runs out.
Edited to add a month! Yay.
Piglet:
Thank you to James T Kirk who just donated - and to Thor who donated earlier in the week (I'd not spotted that email!).
Updated with player name :)
Piglet:
Breaking news...we have a little longer on the test server than we thought we had, but it's definitely time to decide what to do next.
Grim_Fandango:
AMD all the way.
Option 1 has my vote.
