Basically, should I start setting aside money to donate for upkeep?

Maybe the ICCUP folks have an answer from their experience?


Server cost is usually not an issue, i imagine it's not gonna be very different for SB.

Can you explain how that works? Like, how does the server get paid for then?

He didn't say "free", he said "not an issue." The developers would still foot the bill, but he's saying the cost is manageable.

AWS means Amazon Web Services and is a hosting provider that is very scalable and somewhat affordable.

Oh, neat!

It's also hilarious how much here is condensed into three initialisms. That ought to be impenetrable, but somehow isn't.

Silly Tofu, I imagine most people here don't know what AWS is .
When I think of something else, something will go here

lol 5/5 for keeping it short.


For those wondering about the beta, it's very much still a testing phase for ironing out bugs related to operating systems/browsers/hardware from what I've seen. It's great for people who
1) Can't host at all (portforwarding)
2) Have bugs related to windows 8/10 (that Aqrit's DDraw Fix somehow doesn't fix)

Automated matchmaking has not begun yet, so until that is implemented you're literally not missing anything you can't get on ICCup currently, please whine less. The developers will invite more people as soon as it makes sense.

.

I agree that it's not warn-worthy if that's the term.

edit - should probably take this to website feedback

what's warnable and what's not doesn't make sense anyway in this sort of case. For example if i would write the greek letter here that follows Iota, that's warning worthy as it a popular meme on twitch. But all the defiler memes are not ban worthy, :arshavin: :niceface: :northkorea:. even the offensive one's like :jew:

So yeah, i don't really get what's wrong with the twitch memes in the first place and secondly what's the difference besides popularity.

From what I remember the twitch memes were really getting out of hand just before they were banned.
The harder it becomes, the more you should focus on the basics.
