I've been on 1 off and on pretty much all day. It seems to be doing quite well.

Well, we tried it. Sunfox finally bumped fake players up in Tempest 1, but left 2 and 3 alone. 1 has had players. 2 and 3 have been empty. Sorry, you lose.  [13:58] TheSpaniard84: I have a kitty stuck to my rump [13:58] WhuTdufK: I suppose that's better than what's normally stuck to your rump.

Nobody tries to fill up 2 and 3, that is why it doesn't fill up. [CMS]defiance - Steam: defiance018 - Xfire: defianceoby - www.constantmayhem.com

yea, it'd take effort on the part of the community to fill up 2 to the point where it can keep itself filled. This has been done before, then the server crashed, and noone had the heart to go back and try again.
3's been dead as I was under the impression it doesn't even work. Same reasons, the thing crashes too much, can't be used, etc. Especially problematic on a custom map server like 3 is a server crashing at map changes. Most custom maps get old much faster than the popular stock ones, as such they need to be changed out fairly quickly. This don't work if almost all the servers have issues crashing on map changes on a regular basis.
The temp regulars don't have a choice of where to go (as far as tempest servers) besides 1. Either it's play 2fort, which most regulars look down upon or get peer-pressured into looking down upon, or spend time on 3 until it crashes (typically a short duration) or play on 1 which will work for at least a little while before it too crashes.
So between the frying pan with ice, the frying pan, and the fire, which is most comfortable?

the only time ive played tf2 the last month is on temp 3, if it didnt crash after changing maps it would fill. that's the issue, if you can fix that it will fill, simple as that McCheese wrote:I've always said all women are 2 drinks away from full on lesbian action Lead Salad wrote:I never figured whut for a fairy..wait, yes, yes I did.

I hate to come off like an asshole (or something resembling such), but what's the point of hosting three servers if there is perpetual issues of filling them all? I'm a huge advocate of quality over quantity and in the past that seems to have shown the best results. I also like playing more when there is a bunch of people I know playing in a single server than just a few with the rest scattered in the other WDF servers, in the times in which they actually are on them. {pDs} Lead Salad: bike why did you change your name
Jessica343: so I can get heals
{pDs} Lead Salad: oh damn good idea
{pDs} Lead Salad has changed their name to {pDs} Lead Salad (is a girl)
Jessica343: hahah

3 is donated by Phoenix. We run 2. [13:58] TheSpaniard84: I have a kitty stuck to my rump [13:58] WhuTdufK: I suppose that's better than what's normally stuck to your rump.

3 was booming for a few hours today (maybe is still is now)! And avanti_b1 didn't even kill the server. It was awesome. You people just need to log on to the server and invite people. It'll take a few minutes, but I'm sure people want to play fun custom maps mixed with official maps.
