I told you some days ago

Oh, that is very much... I consider asking my provider (who actually is a friend of mine) if he could give me some more space. You could have a part of that then, maybe it is faster (I think I could even get a 2nd level domain like stunts.kalpen.de). Shall I ask him?

Zak, I finally met my friend but the price is far too high, he said that he wanted double price from what I pay now (~ ? 13,00 a month), that is too much for me (or in other words: I don't want to sponsor  ~ ? 150,00 a year for that).    Sorry

uh thats a lot... i could get hosting cheaper, guess its not so expensive in Hungary. thanks for asking anyway!

server reinstall is due this year, probably in the winter holidays (then there's no track also) I've had enough of the mysterious shutdowns.

server news:

my brother accidentally pulled out the power cord which resulted in a burn-down mainboard Don't ask how. It's quite sad as it was a rarity.

Fortunately I had a spare at home, so the server is now running on a Celeron 400Mhz, with a little less RAM (96MB) - 64 taken from my brother's computer = revenge

So thats why we had a little downtime today. Sorry, and I hope there wont be many problems with the new mainboard.

Revenge: Umberto ?cs? must race on Z56.

a bit of bad news:

the server will be down on friday from 18:00 GMT+1 for a 1 to 12 hour duration.

and the good news:

our DSL will be upgraded, apart from the many many good things I'll experience you'll experience this:

from your point fo view:
Server upload speed 256kbyte/s -> 512kbyte/s
Server download speed 24kbyte/s -> 64kbyte/s
That means Zakstunts will be around 3 times faster. yipppeeeee

Really good news although speed of upload was already at acceptable level.

Zak : why IRC competition link from "inactive competitions" page is dead ?

Leo : why Stunts LOL competition link from "inactive competitions" page is dead ?

Link for old HOTU Stunts 2004 should be changed : http://community.the-underdogs.info/gamecomp/stunts/ is the new link as underdogs.org domain has be bought by an ad company, so domain of HOTU is now underdogs.info.

Attention Competition Managers! Please send your competition's info and data for the portal, so I can update it for 2008.

And some great news about the server:
Finally there is a provider in our area, who can provide a synchronous 4/4 or 6/6Mbit web connection. As soon as the also offer IP based phone service, I'll change my current provider (due in some months), and probably order a 4/4 package. Conclusion: Server speed will boost from 64Kbyte/s to 512Kbyte/s, providing quick and easy access for you.
I also intend to upgrade to a fixed IP, as all the mine.nu addresses are banned in China.

Plan B: I'll move everything to some hosted webspace. But as this requires lots of work, this will only happen, if the first plan doesn't work or is too expensive.
