My ping went a little bit bigger than it used to be on the servers my team played pcws/mixes, so I decided to find a better location which would fit me and others as well.
I made a list of 15 game servers of different companies (gameservers, hiperz, multiplay, i3d.net, simrai.com & gameplayservers) or locations (Netherlands, France, Germany & Denmark).

I made a basic batch file which is pinging each of these ips and records this in a single .txt file in the same location named ‘pinglogs.txt’. So I want about 10 people from different locations to try it (it wont take more than a minute) and paste this .txt file to http://pastebin.com/ and post the link here with your location. =)

1. gameservers france
2. hiperz france
3. gameservers nl
4. hiperz nl
5. gameservers de

This kind of test only shows the routing based rating what doesn’t mean this rating is right because servers might be ran on shit hardware or settings set by the company. =)

Locations:
France, Germany, Netherlands & Denmark.

Companies:
hiperz.com, gameservers.com, gameplayservers.com, multiplay.co.uk, i3d.net & simrai.com
