We will automate that part anyway, we just need ftp access.
Talking about the logs thing, have a word with humbug. He’s just put together our own log parser that automatically does magic stuff at the end of each night’s play and uploads the stv’s and log files, (seen with his own parser wot he rote), to this page here: http://www.nervousenergy.co.uk/games/tf2main/demo-download-a-log-viewer
Just click the -log.log file and way-hay, logs. It’s awesome.
Edit: Well, it works on the BLU team server, bottom right!
Edit 2: When he’s not tinkering with it.

PS wonder why you can’t rent one VPS or DS and create a few TF2 instances.

May be. ;) But I must finish my contest. It’s a shame but I haven’t time to sort out results.

Is this a serious question or are you just trolling?

Story Time!
So once upon a time before Multiplay sponsored Pixel Pickup, we were looking for someone to give us gameservers. Huhy spoke to GPS and they were willing to give us 4 servers. The guy seemed a little shady, but hey whatever he was giving us servers.
So things aren’t going great. To put it bluntly, the servers are shit, they have constant lag issues, Chris happily documents the specific, we let them know and they tell us they’re working on it.
So about a week later, they suddenly declare a bunch of demands that were never agreed to (among other things, renaming the channel, like, moving it to another IRC chan). I’d been super busy that day and didn’t get a chance to respond, so about lunch time the following day our servers get shut off with no warning.
Fuck those guys.

Hey all
Having worked for GPS for over 2 years they have been consistent with upgrading and maintaining services for customers. At the time we were more than happy to work with Pixel Pickup.
In that short space ( 4 days ), no agreement was set and the servers we gave where in testing stages for them to communicate with us to fine tune as to what they required, therefor them being happy and us willing to work with Pixel Pickup.
In those 4 days, no terms where stated other than to test the server making sure that they where happy. Otherwise there would of been no point in making a agreement. After 4 days GPS decided to pull due to interest with another organisation/league that was more interested in working with us and from a business prospective became more profitable
If Pixel Pickup where sponsored , there would of been a agreements signed contractually. But hypothetically if they where, then they would get clear warning as to why we would be shutting them off and, which would normally be because it wasnt what was agreed in the terms.
sorry you feel this way skyride. hope this explanation will clear this matter.
