Everyone should list their country. After last event its painfully obvious that pingrates across the atlantic are not good enough to support UK players on US hosts.

I still need hosts for this match. If interested, PM me. Please include the country in which you live. At this moment, there are no available hosts for this match to take place.

i think its great that all of them are stepping up to host after whining about everything!!!good job guys!!!!I really don't think we..well you guys..should be responsible for hosting U.K events. lets split it like in COD3...i thought it was nice to have all of us able to play together, and makes less work for our hard working admin!!! (big ups!!)...but with the complaining and unhappy customers, maybe it deserves a split....(probably still be some complaining!!) but what ya gonna do about it!!!whine whine whine....cheeeeeeeeesssseeeeee.....

I have no doubt you werent cheating. I was mighty pissed off at the end of that match. It was bad before, bad at the start and got worse..:(

I videod it like I do ALL events I play in (and I play more than anyone on here, believe me) and if anybody watched it they would actually think you were cheating its so unbelievable. I know its not your fault.

I know, we all know, its due to connections, speeds and those pesky gremlins.

I wont play in the events until I get myself a seperate low-speed broadband setup. My problem is probably unique on this site in that a wickedly expensive leased line for myself. Whereas most people will be sharing their 'pipe' with anything up to hundreds of other people, I share with nobody. Somehow, this ****s me over. I was bloody good at COD3 until I bought this bastard line.. :(

Now, in COd3, Rainbow 6 and MotorStorm somehow I get done over by the slower connections.. bloody wierd. you'd think it was the opposite.


Anyway.. I am quite willing to host a dedicated server for this event and am more than happy not to play in it!


So PM me if I am needed.

It is probably too late to split it. Other regions will turn up anyway and the problem will be the same.

At the very least, as mentioned the tuesday events should be UK or European hosters only like Madtraxx and the thursday events should be just US hosters. that might help. Then, grumpy tossers like myself after events should have a lot less to moan about!

as sunday covers both regions we can have a mixture. We can try and get these hosters to have their regions players in but i think that will make the event even harder to organise.

Please just indicate your country when registering. UK players will be with UK hosters and US players will be with US hosters. This way, pingrates will be the best they can be.

As for finals, I have suggested a UK final and a US final. The only other option could be rotating a UK host and a US host for the finals and it will be a dedicated host run by a person who is NOT participating in the final. This way nobody has anyone to complain about that falls anywhere in the event-coordinators liability.

Re: Rainbow 6 Vegas - Tuesday Terror - (14:00 EST / 19:00 UK)

What we need is for Top players NOT to host the events, thats all.

As we all now understand hosts have a definate advantage it makes sense for hosters to come from the 'normal' players, players who are enthusiastic but not particularly good. I think thats the only fair way to do it.

As i said, i am willing to host this one on a dedicated server and not play, as i couldnt possibly live with myself if I won!!

There is definately 100% truth in this hosting shit as if you look on the 15th July event, I hosted my room and WON against decent players like Slickguy and VST_Bloodfest and I AM CRAP !!! That proves it!

Both of which are American players. I'm sure pingrate had more to do with it than anything else. I appreciate your volunteering to host this next event on a dedicated server. Once the UK players identify themselves, I will assign the rooms as I normally do.

Re: Rainbow 6 Vegas - Tuesday Terror - (14:00 EST / 19:00 UK)

Yeah. i'm sure that must be it.

Madtraxx is european so he is fine to host the room so that may be enough..
i only recognise hitman1993 and agent-shadow as from our region.

It looks like most of the signups are American so you will need 2 hosters for your side!

Madtraxx is european so he is fine to host a room from that point of view. you might only need one us host at that time of day.
I have not heard from MadTraxx as yet so currently you are the only volunteer. Although he usually has no problem, I can't count on him just yet.

Still looking for US hosts by the way!!

I don't remeber you ever beating me in an event...I placed 1st in 2 and tied for 1st in one...came in 2nd the last one (FMJ-SHADOW_ beat me) and came in last in the final round (started chasing invisible butterflies after awhile...
