Question, what happened to The Lounge OSP? It went offline right about when Quake 4 hit. Or did they just change IPs?

Allow me to jump in on VE's behalf and remind you that bandwidth doesn't determine your ping.

since most UK ISPs have a shitty contention ratio it'll vary depending on how many monkeys are online checking their email. best times are either weekday mornings or the middle of the night. early evening weekdays is out for gaming pretty much

oh, and at least for me pings to US east coast servers are better than to UK servers

broadband britain my arse. a day late and a dollar short - the british way :dork:
