I've started a new west coast server after I noticed the East/Central is hard to get into at peak times. I've been getting a ping of 7 on this new server, so it should be pretty good.
The IP for the new server: 8.3.6.210:27015
New Vent Server for WC Server: vent10.gameservers.com port: 4598 pw: r3dd1t
I will be needing to add some admins, so send me a message if you're interested.

East Coast, Central, West Coast. The set is complete. :D
Not true. We need a North and a South too.
Winnipeg and Texas.
5 ping here I come.
Fuck yeah Winnipeg server. I'd be all over that.
I would like to formally request that people actually play on the server. There seems to be a trend with Reddit West servers. Everyone gets all excited about them in the comments, but I hardly ever see anyone on. We've had a few West servers in the past. Let's try to keep this one.
:D
I wish you could queue for a server while playing in another one, and then when x amount of people are in the queue everyone joins.
Can this get added to redditgaming.com?
Will add this when i get home.
Where is this server hosted from? (please say Seattle!!!)
Sorry it's based in Los Angeles, but it should still be a good ping for you.
No need to be sorry. LA is almost as nice. I live on vancouver island in canada so Seattle is the best for me. But thats because my isp's fiber backbone runs down the western sea board.
But i am spoiled when it comes to pings. 10-20ms for seattle, 30-50ms for LA, which is still perfect imo.
Quick question; what are the IPs for the other US servers?

many thanks
Heyo Frank, I'll play asap. Thanks.
Some people and I were on tonight and we were wondering what the alltalk situation will be like. The old west was alltalk, being a contention for alot of players. I say we add a way to vote for alltalk on/off at the least.
Questions: can we expect to be playing with the low gravity every night? I was only able to play about 5 minutes last night before I got tired of it and switched. I wasn't sure if that was a regular server thing, or if I just showed up at a bad time.
No, I've told the admins to basically keep their hands off settings unless there is a cheater or mic spammer. If you see any admin abuse please send me a message.
Does this server have nocrits/nodmgspread? I would like to request that it does. Fixed weaponspreads would probably be nice as well.
Keep it stock.
I love crits!
I would put a vote in for this as well, at least the no random crits. I've always felt the game was "fairer" with no random crits, as you have to rely more on aiming instead of getting lucky kills because some dice rolled in the background.
Crits keep the game fun and silly though. TF2 is pretty geared towards casual gaming.
Ugh ventrillo
What is wrong with it?
Horrible quality, horrible latency. Also, their busniess model means you have you rent a server from them or a reseller as opposed to throwing it on as extra box you own like with mumble and I think teamspeak.
You can set up your own Vent server. It's not hard and it's free.
The quality and latency are fine. Just set your codecs accordingly.
Yeah, if you have fewer than 8 people that needs to be connected at once.
