Hi there,



At 00:00 GMT, 22/4/97 the new UK QuakeWorld master went live. The IP


number is:



194.217.251.40



This master should mean that European players don't have to plough


through 150 US servers in order to find a decent game. It is possible


to attach a server to more than one master, so the European servers


currently attached to the id Master need not make a choice between


masters as was the case with old QW. There is also a webpage where all


servers currently attached to the master can be viewed using Qplug.


This page is located at:



http://temple.minos.co.uk/ukserver.htm



Most technical aspects of changing to the new master are covered on


the MINOS webpages, but if you have any enquiries then you can email


qw@minos.co.uk.



Adios!



Andrew.
