DS Mega and G5's are the exact same server...when G5 left DS, he just changed the server name and some authorities. :)

Just a quick update. Kyle will send me the original settings tomorrow. I am going to update them for auth..etc. and get it up as fast as I can.

Even a 9v9 server has just 18 player spots, that's true :D

I'd also like to have good old fort cafe back and I liked their settings much more than for example g5's...
can't wait for it...

I disagree. I think G5's server helps further the game because it's running the Ladle settings.

I think there is room for all three servers. Each with its unique gameplay!

If by running the Ladle settings you mean the Ladle settings conform to G5's server then I agree.

8v8 is fine, 9v9 is one too many...

however since we have G5's server and the Tx server in NJ, and soon Fort café, i'd prefer having 3 6v6 games going rather than two 9v9 games.

I think he meant 8vs8 (playing) and 4 Spectators.

I think sine understand, roze.

It's just that spectators who don't get a chance to play can turn really annoying.
