Hi, everyone! I'm Vicki. I'm quite new to the Tasty Spleen forums (I just registered, in fact), but I'd say I'm somewhat of a regular on the Tasty Spleen Tourney Servers, 1-4. Anyway, I kind of have a problem: None of the Tasty Spleen servers show up for me anymore, nor can I just type "connect [address]", and manually connect. I think I might know what this has to do with, though; I was on both Tasty Spleen's Tourney and Tourney2 servers, testing out new team binds that I made with Q2Text14, and when i pressed on the keys I had binded my team messages that, again, I had created with Q2Text14, it said something along the lines of "vicki vicious: dropped ... (something, something) attempted command exploit". I have no idea what it meant, but when I refreshed my server list, none of the Tasty Spleen servers appeared, and haven't since before I attempted to test my team binds. At first, I even thought that I had somehow singlehandedly crashed all of the servers, and I hope that wasn't and still isn't the case. I really hope I didn't damage any of the servers in any way, and I'm very, very sorry if I did. I would like to also say that I was not trying to cheat in any way, I swear. I have no idea what I did, and hope that the Tasty Spleen servers aren't down because of me, and that I'm not banned because I spend most of my time on those servers!

So, please, if anyone can help me, I'd be really, really appreciative.

Thanks in advance,
Vicki Vicious

P.S. Oh! And just in case this could be of any more help to whoever tries to help me, here are the binds that I made:

bind KP_DOWNARROW "wave 3;drop rocket launcher;drop railgun;drop rockets;drop slugs;say_team Dropped ? ROCKET LAUNCHER

Doesn't sound like a ban to me. Exactly what happens when you try and manualy connect ? Here are three of the tourney adresses in case you lost them.

tourney1 tastyspleen.net:27930
tourney2 tastyspleen.net:27931
tourney3 fl.tastyspleen.net:27920

Tell you what, try and conect to each of these q2 servers and see what happens.

67.19.248.74:27930
67.19.248.74:27931
66.165.126.200:27910
67.19.248.74:27910
64.49.228.45:27910

When I try manually connecting to the tourney servers, it just keeps repeating "connecting to [address]..." over and over again, not actually connecting to the server ever. I've already tried just waiting it out, too, but to no avail. As for the servers you wanted me to connect to -

The first two:
67.19.248.74:27930

67.19.248.74:27931

were no good and, just like the tourney servers, kept repeating, over and over again, "connecting to [address]..."

The last three, however:
66.165.126.200:27910

67.19.248.74:27910

64.49.228.45:27910

worked just fine, thank you.

The last server address, I think, was one of Tast Spleen's because I was able to type "goto" and saw that all of their servers were still up, and had people playing on them.

Please help! I don't know what to do!!!

Thanks in advance for further assistance,
Vicki Vicious

The first two servers are ts 1 & 2 - tourney - R1Q2 b5494 i386 May 7 2005 Linux - OSP Tourney DM v(2.76)
The last three are

=Ds= TDM MADHOUS q2dm1 - tourney - R1Q2 b5240 x86 Apr 7 2005 Win32 RELEASE - Quake2 TeamPlay DM v0.9.1
Tastyspleen mutant - non tourney
-=Quakeland Railz=- - non tourney

Let's try one more thing.

Try and connect to
69.9.189.129:27910
which is
Enter.net FFA - tourney - R1Q2 b1918 i386 Nov 25 2004 Linux - OSP Tourney DM v(2.76)

This is a non tastyspleen server.

I think I know where you going with this; are you suggesting that those servers now require R1Q2? I just tried that server, and like the others, it just repeats over and over again "connecting to [address]..."

It would make sense, seeing as how I don't have r1q2, but instead use q2a.

Art · « **Reply #5 on:** November 21, 2005, 11:43:57 PM »

I don't think it's the R1Q2 since you were able to connect to
=Ds= TDM MADHOUS q2dm1 - tourney

Hi,

Strange... could you try connecting to tastyspleen.net:27912 ?

If it's just the OSP tourney servers you can't get into, you might check whether you have your 'password' cvar set in your client. I've had the OSP servers refuse my connection when I had 'password' set (even though the server I was trying to connect to didn't need a password.)

Otherwise, it's a mystery. We don't require R1Q2 or any particular client, nor does your IP show up in any of the ban files.

But let me know if you still can't connect and we'll think of what to try next.

Good luck,

That definitly sound to me like a blackhole ban....which r1q2 will automaticaly do if it detected that you were doing something to exploit the server

"vicki vicious: dropped ... (something, something) attempted command exploit"

if console does a "listholes" in rcon, or from the console he should be able to see if your ip is on the blackhole list

Indeed. That's the first thing I checked. Unfortunately, I checked blackholes on the wrong server.

Yes, vicki was blackholed on the tourney servers!

70.97.xxx.xxx/32 (0xFF in command packet (RAILGUN \255 ROCKETS - SLUGS))

Vicki, the problam appears to be that one or more of your new binds contains the character 0xFF (255), which is not allowed to be transmitted to servers.

If you edit your binds to remove that character, you should be OK.

Regards,

Art · « **Reply #11 on:** November 22, 2005, 10:31:16 AM »

Hmm, that means she's blackholed on 69.9.189.129:27910 Enter.net FFA

[BTF]adam · « **Reply #12 on:** November 22, 2005, 10:43:56 AM »
