Routine Maintenance

All GATM hosted servers will be going down in a short while for a period of time. We'll be doing some house keeping, updates, backups, etc. There is no need to panic or freak out. EVERYONE JUST STAY CALM. WE DON'T NEED EVERYONE RUNNING AROUND SHOUTING AT THE TOP OF THEIR LUNGS FREAKING OUT!


CSS Events

Nuke has been working hard to put together a list of players to participate in a CSS Event of some sort. Possibly a tournament against another community (or a steady cycle of events against several communities).

Head over to the Counter Strike forum and post in the Tournament Participants thread to give him an answer.


Server Ups and Downs

Okay, so just the other day our power supply went out, and for the last 24 hours the carrier has been having an outage. What does this mean? Well it means the server is sitting there without any access to the interwebs. From my discussion with the on site tech, there is no ETA for the fix... but all is good!

Why is it good you ask? Well, my provider offered to move me over to another bandwidth option (better than what we have now) that sits on a different carrier line as a temporary fix. I was a little hesitant because this means the servers IP would change. I told him I didn't want to deal with switching all the IPs over and then switching them back. So he agreed to keep me on the premium bandwidth option, without any additional charge. YAY FOR MINOR VICTORIES.

As soon as the IPs have been changed over and we're all back online, I'll update the respective forums with the new IP address and let you guys know.

Edit:

Servers back online! Check the forums for the new IP
