I think the master list has been down for a day or two. Anybody else having the same problem?

yup
if this continues it is a problem as i don't think the source for the master server has been released (but it might be a simple thing to recreate?)

Actually, the source for the master server has been released with the rest of the source and when you compile on linux it compiles the master server. Only for linux
. And yeah, I noticed that the master server was down too. If we take over, we're gonna have to run our own master server too...

Another master server could be started if....
The key points as I see it are.
1) Any game server would have to send a packet to a new master. (instead of armagetron.kicks-ass.net)
2) Same as the client
or could they send to both?
The problem I see is stepping on some toes of the one and only "Tron God" or maybe see it as an opportunity to contact Moo. Saying "we miss it and would like to help."

Well, hopefully it'll be back up. Or else we'll have to figure something out. Maybe make a list of servers to directly connect to and post it in the forum, or if somebody wants to start a master list, then that too.

I will look into starting another master server. Of course, it'd only be good for those that pay attention to the forums...

Well, I can run a master server, but it appears the real one is back online. I could get at it just now.
