tastyspleen.net / Who are you guys anyway?

I've seen your servers around for a very long time. I've been paying this game since the early 1990s. My early experience was on dialup playing at Mage Warehouse, then discovered the wonderful world of WOD, only later to find the fun of the insane weapons in the LOX world. I became a member of the WOS clan.

We've been having issues with various GSPs and I couldn't help but notice that you folks have an enviable amount of powerful servers with a ping that puts to shame any GSP I've seen.

Are you a clan? A consortium? A group of wealthy gamers bent on world domination?

I asked my fellow clan-mates about you and to paraphrase the response; (Insert the barritone-bass choir you hear every time the Star-wars emporer speaks) that they have been around since quake itself. A mystereous group with unimaginably powerful servers.

I've been digging around and haven't found anything about y'all. Could you point me to a thread or tell me what you're all about?

WOW! That was a quick reply. Just wondering one more thing...

At the risk of tooting my own horn, I've created two maps. The first one; 201huntroad wouldn't be of much interest to anyone as it was my first map, 5 megs, and very laggy but the second one could be of interest to this community. It's called NCC1701. Yes I geeked out on this one. It's the USS enterprise from the original series built as the set was on the Desilu studios. It's a lot of fun and I'd really love to see it on your servers.

To get it, just go to the URL; http://www.deaconstomb.org/pub/q2/maps/ncc1701.zip

You can see my meager website at mrbo.clanwos.org

Thanks for including our mod in your environment. It's recently gotten the clan's notice when our GSP at Killerpings became mysteriously unavaliable. One question;

I primarily use All Seeing Eye for game browsing. I see many of the tastyspleen servers, but not the LOX one. I can insert the address and it shows up under favorites, but unlike any other game servers, when I go to my LOX filter, it disappears btw my ASE filter is this;

1    if servertype != "Q2" remove
2    if game != "lox" remove

When I go to the overall quake2 filter (where everything should be listed) it's not there either. Just wondering if the server config isn't sending out to ASE's master server (though even in that case ASE shouldn't forget a newly inserted server)

It doesn't show up on gamespy either (though not much is showing up there now-a-days, I think it's deader than ASE) and xfire isn't showing it either.

Thanks again for hosting our mod. The "children" appreciate it.

Mr BO
