Yes. The servers were taken down due to lack of use. I may bring a few back up in the near future, but there honestly doesn't seem to be many FPS players on TL that want a private server. Most prefer playing public ones.

I can put some servers back up, but honestly despite the 15k views in this thread nobody was actually using them. Had a total of 37 people log in across 17 different game servers over the course of a month.

I was considering going with weekly tournies or something instead if the interest is there.

I play 1.6. I think it is impossible to be playing counter strike 1.6 without ESEA in the US. The public scene is dead etc. You will find more people to play and more games to play with on there, but gl finding a public server.

You should gauge the demand again by opening a new op so people would vote or whatever, and hopefully we can have some meaningful server(s) where we can pub but without rages, etc.

I'm all up for it. And with ~6000+ active people constantly on TL we can at least have 1 decent server running.

The issue wasn't so much a lack of players... it's that nobody wanted to take the initiative to play on a server.

People would join, see it's empty, then leave and never come back. It's like people just expected the server to be instantly full 24/7 or something. Without enough people willing to play a few hours a day until the server gets noticed by pubs, it's quite literally impossible to keep it running.

Polls don't seem to work too well, either. I polled in the Black Ops thread before purchasing a server. There were quite a few people who wanted one, and after I went out and spent the money on it I had a total of 3 people ever connect to it.

Again, I'd be more than happy to reopen a server but... I can't populate it. So unless the TL community puts in the effort to do so themselves, it's just going to remain empty like it did before.

Since I have no idea how to start a server does anyone have a good idea to populate it?

It's mostly just getting enough people to commit to games on a daily basis. We got a few good 3v3s, and the occasional 4v4 in... but it's just not enough to 3v3 for two hours a day. One good way to start a population would be to create a team that could practice each day and get involved in clan wars or whatever.

Want to op a new thread on how many will commit to daily practices? Could be in a good timeframe, say 6-10 PM.

I'll get back to you tomorrow. Will check with the mods to see if it warrants a new thread. Perhaps I can make a team thread or something.

I wish it will be a lax pub but I suppose to get it going you need to first establish a base first.

I tried to connect to it constantly but my server list would NEVER SHOW IT! ALKAJFLJSDLFJ

It was very frustrating. I would probably wait in there though if it had shown up, or at least make a post on the thread but I only got in once by adding someone through Steam, saved it to my favorites, and it never showed up later. Hell, the only servers I can ever see are from the US and Canada in that game, and on rare occasions I see only servers from other countries.

It feels like they butchered the server list in that game, so I don't think it's really fair to blame it on us.

I would like to humbly request a dedicated server for Monday Night Combat, its not a first Person Shooter, it is a 3rd person MOBA game and is still quite competitive and I know several TLers play it as I saw a thread about it not to long ago.
