I need rosters from other teams in the next few days.
You can put people into your roster after the start but if a person plays on more then 1 team (switches mid-season) it is by admin consent only.

You can see our clan member list at http://gemi.nn.fi/arr/members.html. The member list wont be changing in quite some time as our recruitment is closed.

Our team composition for the league games will of course change depending on which members are available each week, but we have a solid core of players who can make it most weeks.

VeRiTaS · #49 03-24-2010, 07:51 PM

JC is in

Capt = Veritas
Co-Capt = Prune
Roster = Prune,Veritas,Buzz,Tupapito,eQui,Luudl,Knight,Dead ,Jynx,GoldenBoy and Eto'o
Time zone = GMT or GMT 1+ Mostly.

And the games are played on Saturdays right?

gemigemi · #50 03-25-2010, 06:56 AM

Which servers are the games to be played on? Tbh this might be a bit complicated as we have European and US teams and it does affect the game a bit whether the servers are close or far from you. One solution that could work is pick both European and US servers than are used and then have the "home" team decide which ones to use for the game.

If required I can provide a server or two in Europe (check our the {arr} servers and you'll see how they perform).

Truepain is kindly providing servers, they are US.

If you know of someone who is willing to host stable Eu servers have them send me a PM, but for now all servers are US.

Please get in your clans roster

Like I just said in the message I can gladly host EU servers. I just need to know the settings that you want to be in place for these servers and I can set them up. I haven't heard any complaints about the arr servers before and they are probably the most popular EU ball servers atm, so there shouldn't be any problem with them for the players.

Since there were no detailed instructions on this I thought our memberlist would suffice. (posted the link a little above, but also below for your convenience)

Captain: {arr}Gemi
Co-captain: {arr}D4rt

Members:
{arr}_micro
{arr}cipso
{arr}Goose
{arr}Hagnot
{arr}Iderik
{arr}Maleus
{arr}Sunaku
{arr}Tominator
{arr}Void
{arr}Wolfey
{arr}Wyrd

Time zones are between GMT and GMT+2.

CCN · #54 03-25-2010, 07:44 AM

Memberlist is fine, I can get you the server specs, just give me a day to talk with the other admins and figure out how we're going to use US/EU dual hosts. I am currently thinking that it should be US on default unless the two teams agree to play on EU due to anyone in Asia getting 350+ ping in EU servers.

Thanks for lending your hosting, I skimmed your posts, missed the () with the offer.

Edit:
Could everyone post the main timezones for their team
I.E. EU or US

I have Arr down as EU
JC down as US
Av0 as US
on default, need other teams and replies from these 3 teams if I am mistaken.

drunkguava · #55 03-25-2010, 02:56 PM

{ball/*} is mostly US, but some EU and one lonely Asia.

Gemi, your servers work fine until they host a large number of non-euro players, in my experience ({ball} v {arr} games). I think we would need to do some testing with Euro and US teams to see if they will be viable. A solution may be to simply not allow spectators to keep the number of non-euro connections low.

Hagnot · #56 03-25-2010, 03:35 PM

With bo3, how about playing 2 rounds on the home teams choice and one on the guest teams choice?

I think Hagnot meant server picks, but to be honest switching servers in the middle of the match is too much of a hassle, so I don't support that idea.

The number of connections from outside of Europe shouldn't have anything to do with anything, just the raw number of connections in total. If need be, I could probably disable all non-league arr servers for the duration of the matches (hopefully 1-2 hours tops) each Saturday to keep the number of connections down. The league servers could also be passworded to restrict outsiders from the servers.

Tbh EU vs US matches will always be a bit complicated as either side has to suffer from ping >100, usually closer to 150 or more.

drunkguava · #59 03-25-2010, 05:08 PM

Tbh it's the spiking more thanthe 100-150 ping I'm concerned about. We will need to have a max ping on these servers so people aren't scoring teleport goals. If ccn's down, I'd like to try out your server with some of these ideas and see how they perform. I don't really know much about servers etc so I don't know how much it'd help but it's worth a shot to level the playing field.

+1 put up a server w/25 spots and we'll stress test it.

Question: Where are these hosted? VPS Dedicated Your computer?

I'll put up a 25 player test server for you. The password will be "ccnrocks". I'll do this once the servers are empty so that I don't mess up anyones play with server reboot.

This is a VPS and the server resources and bandwidth are pretty much unused as there is nothing else running on the server, so there shouldn't be problems regarding any resources of the server. It's located in France, so pretty much in the middle of Europe.

classicallad · #62 03-26-2010, 02:56 AM

If a euro server is secured, count KLF in.

the problem is, even if a Euro is secured the best way going forward for the majority is only if both teams request it. I know of a few asians (like myself) who would be utterly screwed on a Euro 350+ ping. Perhaps a compromise rule is home team chooses Euro/US but asian starter on a team can veto Euro. I feel for the Euros, I do, but I feel for Asians as well. I need input here, to accomadate as many epople as possible without ignoring an entire set.

Anyway, when you see Gemi's server up use the password and try and get 25 people in, see how it handles. If it does 25 for 20+ minutes with no hiccups it can handle 1-2 league Euro Servers which would be great.

gemigemi · #64 03-26-2010, 07:11 AM

The server is now online and the name is "{arr} league test - ball, hardw". It has 30 players slots, should be more than enough for stress testing. Also note that all the 4 other arr servers run in the same place, so if other servers have players too they contribute to the stress test. If you log in in the European evening time you'll probably see 1-2 servers full which should help with testing it under even more stress.

Also, there is no password now as no real matches are played yet.

Superdan · #65 03-27-2010, 01:02 AM

I'd like to register a team: Emberspawn

Players are:
[ESpawn]Superdan
[ESpawn]RCPanda
[ESpawn]Christov
[ESpawn]Synergist
[ESpawn]Seraphiel
[ESpawn]Nevyn
Lewisb

We're all western europeans so main time zone is gmt or gmt+1

I expect there will be no problems hosting a server if required in London- it will be in a home but the guy has 50Mbps cable. The computer has been well tested as a counter strike source dedicated server for european matches, and if it's good enough for that i'm sure it's good enough for altitude

ill play some ball league

CCN · #68 03-29-2010, 06:43 AM

Time Table coming up shortly for next week.

Gemi, i'll send you the server config and maps for 2 16 player servers shortly as well.

Any matchup can use the Europe servers (Skyleague 5 -6) to play if both captains agree to it, otherwise the American server use is standard (Skyleague 1-4).

Did you notice that this next weekend is the Easter weekend, and that might make ti difficult for some teams to get online. Well, I didn't so I guess you didn't either, but it might be something to consider.
