Last week I spotted some players on ctf.clanhdz.com and we actually had about five pickup games. Most of the games were 3 v 3.
I'm having the itch to play some ctf again after my hiatus, so if others are interested I think we should pick one night a week where we get together for pickup games. Off the top of my head I'm guessing Sunday, or Monday will work best.
I don't know how many people are still checking the ctf forums, so if needed I can shoot an e-mail to a few people. I know I still have a few e-mails of a few former active players.

1) ctf.clanhdz.com is in Dallas, not the west coast.
2) We had a server in chicago for a long time that Destroyer and Frenzy helped put up, it was ctf.quakezone.net. No one played there.
Half of the old active ctf guys were from the west coast, like Muller, Dabooty, Shaolin, HW and Vis . When they played at ctf.quakezone.net they would ping 70 - 100 there, while players like bsh and rampage ping around 20 there. At ctf.clanhdz.com the pings for everyone are relatively close.

Crackdog is right.
In the past, we've done some "research", and the HDz server seemed to come out on top.
For awhile, I had yayowave.quakeone.com (Chicago) up, and due to the fact that a lot of us pinged 20, and the rest 90+, it kind of killed 3wave at that point because of the unfair ping.
DestroyeR hosted/hosts ctf.quakezone.net , and I had him switch that to 3wave, and as Crackdog said, nobody played on it.
HDz is kind of "neutral" stomping grounds, and has always come out being the server that the majority of us play on because it's centralized and the advantages/disadvantages kind of equal out.
I don't know what Neil means by "most of the old ctf'ers are east coasters", completely innacurate. Most the ctf'ers left are either central or west coast.
p.s. I'm still around for some 3wave, I been itching to play, but none of you are ever on.uakene.com

Well, I tell ya I get 62 ping at Destroyer's server and it plays BETTER than another server at 62 ping at ticrate 0.05. (ie crctf.clan-rum.org) and thats east coast no?Last edited by R00k; 01-28-2009, 09:46 PM.

Originally posted by Neil View PostI mean exactly how i wrote it, i said OLD ctfers not the ctfers left between me bosh kwong bb rampage cancerous so on and so forth are all east coast, i also have never even heard of these other ctf servers which your speaking of but regardless i only offered it as a reason why we dont play, i refuse to play on hdz's servers as i ping 100+ and constantly spike, always have, always will.
I think you just weren't around, or were playin something else while we had these servers up and going. You've been gone a long time from 3waveuakene.com
