AWOC has locations in Virginia and New York it is just the slots would be limited to 20 for the lower price.

AOWC has a server that we could get for 16:59 monthly, or like 3 bucks off (in total) if we pay quarterly. They also havea deal where u get 25 bucks for each referral. So in theory, we could order the TFFA or w/e, and refer another acc with the CW for a free 25 bucks :3

thats more expensive than what we already had, AND with less slots.

In a better location for the euro folks tho.

Thing is our old place is having a promotion.

2x32 slot JKA servers for 25 a month.

if that was our old provider they sucked for us and euro

ghosting no matter what

by **Ptolemy** Thu Apr 07, 2011 5:44 pm

Agreed it is a good price though.

The other will limit slots and be almost a mid point between US and Euro players. will be more for 2 servers as well.

by Deadly Assassin Thu Apr 07, 2011 5:47 pm

again why do we need 2 the clan war is a pointless place were we do nothing we couldn't do on the tffa

and if we needed to do giw theres no reason we couldnt /amlockteam during that 1 hour

also is aowc even paypal compatible i think pto is right were gonna have to stick to magna

by **tRibaL** Thu Apr 07, 2011 7:03 pm

im with deadly on that, we only need one server. plus it would make it waaaay more active for recruiting, kinda like how we were when nobody played on the CW...

by **Ptolemy** Thu Apr 07, 2011 7:10 pm

aowc takes pay pal as well.

More expensive but if you factor in the location of the server... I dunno would it be worth it?

2x32 slots for 25 is attractive as well

by **Aureus** Thu Apr 07, 2011 7:24 pm

We do a lot of stuff on both servers. It's just ur personal experience that dictates that the whole clan seems to only be one server.

Dont think we need CW to be 32 slots thou. 16 is enough.

by **soran** Thu Apr 07, 2011 7:44 pm

yeah i agree with 16, not too high, not too low. and kinda cheap. i say go for it

by Deadly Assassin Thu Apr 07, 2011 7:46 pm

im jsut saying 1server is all we rly need and will make it a hell of alot easier to maintain with the amount of donors cause its not like you will ever have alot fo the clan donating will be the same people and a few others doing , the rest will do what they did

I've gone over the math, the cheapest options are still in Magnavolge, two 32 slots for $25. The only way to get them any cheaper is by buying two separate servers from them a 20 slot for $13 and a 14 slot for $10 which rounds it out to $23.

Other than that we can mix and match hosts(which could cause problems but I can probably sort out the admin talk), get a more stable server from ET for $15 that will be less severe on lap spikes but give Euros a higher baseline ping and then get a VERY limited CW server with 10 slots for $8 that'll give us the same overall cost.

Bottom line getting a less lag server is going to cost us a lot. The absolute minimum cost for a stable TFFA(meaning East Coast based and at least 20 slots) is $17. Absolute minimum for a CW big enough to actually host the GIW is $11 for 14 slots.

Two servers:
Most cost effective: Magnavolge 2 32 slot servers for $25
Cheapest: Magavolge 20 slot server + AOWC 12 slot CW for $22.95
Most stable: AOWC 20 slot server + 14 slot server for $28.21
Stable Main + Cheap CW: AOWC 20 slot server + Magnavolge 14 slot server for $26.59

One server:(meaning no CW)
Most cost effective: Escaped Turkey 32 slots for $15
Cheapest: Magnavolge 20 slots for $13
Most stable: AOWC 20 slots for $16.59

by **Dray The Fingerless** Thu Apr 07, 2011 10:44 pm

oh, no mixing providers. that gets messy aard.

by **Aureus** Thu Apr 07, 2011 10:45 pm

I like the most stable for the two servers. If we do an East coast server the euros should lag a lot less too.

by **Aardvark** Thu Apr 07, 2011 10:50 pm

I know it gets messy Dray, but I can sort out the double talk if necessary. Those are the options, think before you pick which one you like best because if your vote is for the stable option(s) then you should be willing to donate at least a buck or two a month.

by **Beaner** Thu Apr 07, 2011 10:56 pm

Magnavole or however it is spelled wasn't THAT bad.. Anyway.. yeah, if you are wanting a good server, be willing to help out. If not.. I'd say stfu.

^This.

Also, I like more bang for the buck so i would go with the 2x32 slot for $25. I would not mix providers under any circumstances.

by **Aureus** Thu Apr 07, 2011 11:25 pm

Magna has so terrible ghosting imo. It kinda ruins some of it for me. I mean poke is next to useless on it. I'd be willing to donate a few bucks a month for the more stable AOWC servers.

pretty much every euro has poke useless to them on our servers, so i guess its only fitting that you get a bit of that medicine as well.

Beh would say otherwise :3

Ik wiggle is dif but they have the same effect on magna

Beh is in another level of skill from you and me.

by **soran** Fri Apr 08, 2011 2:56 am

dray plz stop being bitchy Very Happy

but anyways so far from the votes we'll be getting a stable amount of 10-20 bucks of donations a month... which actually kinda makes me lean toward 1 server, but that one server being a rlly good tffa
