Hi lnx. Obviously I don't speak for everyone, but here's my two cents:
From what I've seen, Australian servers don't get used much. And if they do, they're often just used to mapvote a CTF douze server or TOSOK desert. Were you looking into making it a specific game mode server or just for general use?
The main problem I've seen is that whilst there is no where near as many Oceanic players as everywhere else, many players from other countries will come into the server, see that they have terrible ping, and leave. Meaning that only the Oceanic players will end up staying and even then it would be a 2-3 man game. I haven't been as active as I used to be however so someone pleace correct me if this is no longer the case.
Personally, I'd love to see another all CTF server. Really, anything like THE HUB used to be when HI-SKILL was still around. I miss that server.
Interested to read other people's thoughts.
