It has become evident that our current server has certain bandwidth limitations, and can't handle a decent amount of players. This was seen in pretty much all of the playoff games, as the server was experiencing some spiking. Because of this, we are in the process of changing servers, in the very least until the playoffs are over and we can figure out if we want to go with a new server or stick with Priitk's. He has been kind enough to offer us a spot on the servers he hosts TW, EG, and pretty much the rest of SS on (minus a few zones like MG and DSB). The servers have more than enough bandwidth to host HZ, and you can check out your lag by tracing TW.

I'm not sure exactly when the switch will happen, but it will most likely happen before Sunday's playoff game. If you see HZ offline in the next couple of days, refresh your zone list and you should automatically download the new IP info.

I'll keep you guys updated by posting news and/or posting on the boards. If you have any questions don't hesitate to use the boards or contact me in gam
