Unfortunately my new beast rig won't run any games for more than 30secs -> 5 mins, see here for details:

If anyone has tips I welcome them :)

Will,

Run a memtest on your machine. A lot of the time, high performance memory like that can cause timing issues.

Here is a decent free mem test - http://www.memtest86.com/. Run that for one pass (100%) and see if it returns and errors.

You do have your auxiliary power supply port hooked up to the board right? Normally there is the large power supply plug and then a 4-8 pin plug that plugs in on the top of the board. It sounds like something is not getting enough power.

I think this week through next (at least) we'll be trying to fill fairly consistently. With the updates coming out and such, it's a great time to try and build the user base and maybe get a consistent server.

wtb some ctf games. ctf > cp when it comes to gameplay balance imo. dustbowl is played to death.

Which is exactly why we have a dustbowl server. :) Filling Dustbowl or some of the more popular payload maps is hard enough given how inconsistently we try and fill -- trying to get a decent amount of people on a CTF or 5-point map is just too difficult.

I don't buy this. for every dustbowl enthusiast, there's 3 that are tired of the map =p

maybe if we weren't picking maps that were super common they would fill faster? supply and demand, I say!
