Announcing a new Australian Quake Server List



Tyson's Australian Quake Server List



http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~trd/servers.html



Features:



* Only Australian sites.



Even if you did want to play against the weenies in the US, until


the US upgrades it's Internet link to Oz, it's just too slow!


Don't waste time searching and pinging sites, hoping to find one


in your country.



* Map and Number of players given.



You don't want to search for the only server in the country that


isn't stuck on 'start'. You don't want to be alone! Find the


server where the action is... or the map you know best.


Information is updated every 10 minutes.



* I'll keep it simple.



If you wanted big pretty pictures, you'd be looking for picture


servers! You want blood on the walls, and fast. You want to rack


up 100 frags before Mr Sandman tugs on your little lids. I might


add some graphics, but I'll keep it pretty basic, so there's


more time (and memory) for Quake.



Any suggestions or comments are appreciated (unless they're flames, of


course).
